Now my open question to you torriem or anyone reading this. This spring my 2 outback systems an OLD s3 and a about 7 year old stx worked just fine without any updates to the satillite receiver??? So how can that be? How about anyone reading this and other brands were there updates needed to get up and going this spring????? Why is deere needing all these updates to keep going? Very confusing to me........

Thanks


Deere's SF1 is a proprietary signal that only JD GPS stuff can use. If the US government decided to change the broadcast frequency of the WAAS satellites, Outback and every other GPS company would have to come out with an update to continue use of them. Not all companies would dedicate the resources to updating 15 year old receivers.


Ok gps dude like i said this is all very confusing.

so are you saying because the old outback stuff worked just fine this spring that deere is lying to us and the update just fixes a poorly thought out itc system hack to support new sales that were not possible because of the labor and chip shortage.
Deere did tell us the old itc would fall back to waas for mapping but my experience says other wise.
Seems hard to believe deere would use a system for waas that would not be flexable to handle the governments minor changes to the waas system that older outback systems handled with out issue.
