Low-cost GPS

THE NEW GPS 1500 antenna/receiver system form Ag Leader Technology offers sub-meter accuracy. It can take advantage of AutoSwath function used to automatically turn sprayer boom or planter sections on and off based on field maps or already applied or planted areas. Like other Ag Leader GPS receivers, the GPS 1500 outputs a simulated radar speed signal and NMEA position Augmentation System (WAAS) and European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS) signal differential corrections. It also can be used to automatically adjust swath width of combines during harvest and to guide tillage, data logging and general mapping operations.

The suggested retail price is $1,295. Contact Ag Leader Technology, Dept. FIN, Box 2348, Ames, IA 50010, 515/232-5363, visit www.agleader.com or www.freeproductinfo.net/fin, or circle 152.
