I do a lot of hedgecutting and verge mowing and found the Orbitor aerials snag on the tree branches and bend, changed them for Trucker 80 with no problems at all. Looked at different types but none really any good for anything liable to get caught on tree branches.

Yeah even 2nd hand you'll need a mortgage or a lottery win for a Fendt!!

I got midland 747's on my rigs, seem fine although when the mic is keyed it makes the climate control fan speed up!

Green peril - eeek!

Yep on my 6455 it has the new gearbox where you get 40k at 1900 revs, any faster than 25.6mph and the autodrive knocks it from F into D, all I did was put a switch in cab which is connected in line with the speed sensor on the back axle, when the switch is "on" it breaks the signal line of the cable ...

Does yours get to 50k?

I always thought they amplify a lot of noise too as well as signal!

Can the massey handle it?? hehe only kidding i've got my 6455 dyna 6 sorted now, nice new dash, old firmware on it though as its handy to be able to get 50k out of it rather than the measly 40k it came with lol!!

raiderz, your location is Spennymoor. called in there before xmas to see a mate working in the fields and some numpty was playing happy hardcore dance music on channel 19! Whats all that about? :shock: :?: :!:

Could have been the lad that works for me he fits the "numpty" description lol, you ...

Was in my local NH dealers in the summer for mower parts and they quoted a customer who had a blue tractor 3 weeks for repairs :o

Quickest my Massey dealer has been is 2 hours, slowest is 2 days :wink:

I'm still getting ...

My dyna6 6455 needed new dash, on friday dealer put one in, now ive lost autodrive, its so much harder on the road talking on radio and changing gear as well! Should get it sussed tomorrow hopefully with new firmware update on the dash.

yeah know what you mean about the 4300 range,we have had a few include a 4370 which i hedge cut on and i hate driving them!rubbish gears and prop shaft guards last about 6 months so i'm always glad to be back on my 6480.
The first R reg 4255 I had kept on cracking the rear wheel disc, I put this ...

Here's my modded ERF groundplane on my Massey 6455 with cab suspension, works a treat!



Toasted the burner on there when my antenna swr was 5!

Yeah it does, and also with my wipers as well, it's very annoying, I wonder if there is any sort of suppressor that could be fitted??

I've bought all my new tractors off Dobsons, my local dealer is a) more expensive and b) hopeless. Ryan gets me my parts quick, Fred looks after my 2 girls, although ...

Had mine orignally using powerstick mount, its fine on the non cab suspension tractor, but swr was sky high on the new one with cab suspension, will post pics soon of solution.

do u have any pictures of your set up raider? i'm not too sure how to post them here so i email mine to Gordon the round baler and he does the magic! it would be interesting to see how you have mounted your aerial,have you fastened it to the cab/working lights at the back corner?

I just drilled 3 ...
