Agree with Dpilot...

You need to make sure you have calibrations loads in the flow range you are operating in.

Ground speed is a totally worthless measurement for harvest productivity. Bushels per hour is all that your combine cares about.

If that’s 6mph in 125bpa corn or 3mph in 250bpa corn... your combine doesn’t care. But you need to have your machine set for maximum performance and operate it there.

For instance some guys like things slow, tight, and lower air flow... some guys like wide, fast, and lots of air. Wide fast with lots of air tends to work best for my machine in high volume corn.
