We used to dry land Farm a lot of winter wheat, and developed a lot of open rolling foothills into Vineyard.
I spent plenty of time on a D-8 pulling grain drills as well as doing vineyard work.
Good Luck with the set-up.
You ever think about just taking a 100 watt all mode rig, like a 897 and a Auto tuner and Slip seat it?
You can use a MFJ 108 Inch whip and let the tuner deal with it.
The Tractors nowadays have fairly nice cabs.......
I was working back in the day when we wrapped canvas around the front of the tractor to get heat from the engine back to the operator in the winter, and you got a umbrella in the summer, a far cry from climate controlled cabs of today.
Thumbs Up for a American Farmer.
