    Something like this?

    https://uk.jvc.com/car-entertainment/iphone/KD-R992BT/

    Have a Pioneer Mvh-S420bt still in box, might return it for above one.

    So do these not need the memory wire?

    I’ve never seen those before

    Where would I get parts to repair this loader joystick? It’s a Ruby loader.

    Those pivot points are 11 euro in farm and industrial in Kilkenny. I cut the top of it and welded on a ball bearing.

    Rossmore/William J Carroll in Tipperary. They used to fit that model joystick to the rossmore loaders.

    I have a Ross more joystick but the cover came off, alot easier to click the button now. Would it be harmful not to put it back on

    Is it possible to get a radio to save preset radio stations, they keep getting knocked off when isolation switch is turned off.


    Is that isolation switch an afterthought of yours as that seems strange to me that a factory fitted isolator would do that. All the radios and clocks here stay straight I believe

    Yes the jvc ones Have a memory built in. Had to get ones for all my tractors with isolators. Look up halfords for the cheapest jvc and check spec to make sure it has it.




    How long does the memory last when the isolator is switched off??

    It lasts for a week at least. Would probably last forever with isolator turned off until battery goes dead.


    https://www.halfords.ie/technology/car-audio/car-stereos/jvc-kdx-262-fm-car-stereo-397822.html

    This is the one I got anyway. Could say about other Jvc ones but this one defo has it built in.

    Go down the page in this link and it says "Tuner Preset Memory (for power disconnection)- yes".

    Ah. It uses a capacitor to retain memory for a period.

    I hadn’t seen those.

    Was on the phone to Halfords guy and he said no they didn't they had to have a red and yellow wire.]

    (Don't think I'd let them work on my car.)

    Yes, absolutely mad. Can't see anyone with a brain cell wanting to pay that money for tyres that are as worn as that. He'd do very well to get 500 for them, but most likely a lot less IMO

    If they're structurally sound, they're worth more than €500. They're big tyres. I wouldn't like to be getting the bill for the new set anyway.

    Look all I can tell you is that I have that JVC unit in 2 different tractors with isolators. Turn isolator off and everything goes off. turn isolator back on and the radio will remember the channels.

    I doubt halfords will have any experience with isolators in tractors.

    Ya I will gamble with one, I've a habit of knocking off isolator every time I am finished with tractor. Kind of annoying having to search for a channel every time.

    Definitely a first world problem.

    No actually. A neighbour is trying to replace a similar size and Michelin are 12k and trelleborg wouldn't be far behind if any. Once you go to the higher aspect tyre ie. the 70 bit they get savage expensive. On a general note tyres have gone up in the last month and are going again in short.

    No, that was off the loader joystick . The ‘feck’ was because of the mess I was making trying to post the pic.

    You only had 7 more clicks of the mouse to go. Also one deletion, it's the deletion where I was going wrong for ages. Another place people get caught out is back in the manage attachments stage, you need to upload it and see the pic on screen before doing step 2 below.

    Click on the url to open it in a new window.
    Copy the header where the pic opens
    Go back to your post,
    Click edit,
    click on the little yellow box, it looks like a mountain with the sun in the top corner
    This opens a new box with https written and already highlighted in blue,
    This I think is the tricky bit, delete the https in blue
    Then paste the url that you copied when you opened the pic at step 2 above
    Then hit save.

    Hope this helps, admittedly it's not user friendly compared to fb etc.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    Just been watching Farm Flix (while supposedly working from home) and they were cutting silage with a self propelled.
    I've no experience of clamp silage - especially on that scale, but it must be a bollox of a job on the self propelled having to look out over your shoulder to see it going out of spout into the trailer.
    Do the modern ones work solely off cameras - or is anyone trying to put the spout ahead of the cab to make the operators day a bit easier?

    I would have thought that the way things are going that it wouldn't take much effort to automate the spout to follow the trailer. Just a good camera and some imaging software would take quite a bit of the effort from the operator.
    Maybe I should patent something here!
