Subject: Radar vs GPS Speed



Kingston, Iowa
Given the two options which would be more accurate GPS Speed with WAAS correction or Radar?

Planting yesterday and watching the speed on the EZ Guide there was rapid fluctuations within a few tenths of my intended speed. Radar speed on the tractor corner post fluctuated but not near as rapidly. My concern is that my PF3000 using the GPS speed and controlling a Rawson Drive may be affected by the constantly changing speed to the detriment of seed spacing. The motor RPM's on the Rawson followed the speed, as they should, but are they changing too much?
