I was not yelling at you PB, sorry I just put it in caps.  Here is page 288 from the LAM. Read the bold and interpet this how you wish even if it is not verbatim of my last post.  If you can get by with a pen and notepad thats great.  Personally I would not count on getting any money from a loss with handwritten notes. 

B Acceptable Scale Types
(1) Acceptable scale types are, as follows:
(a) Non-portable farm scales,
(b) Commercial elevator scales, or
(c) Grain carts, provided the grain cart:
1 Can produce printed tickets showing the weight, or
2 Has an integrated display panel to show the weight, provided the cart
is available so the capacity of the cart can be determined.
(2) Separate acceptable weight tickets/records are available as described in C
below.
C Acceptable Weight Tickets/Records1/
A summary record of tickets/records is not acceptable. To be acceptable, each
individual ticket/record for each load must be available and must provide at least the
following information:
(1) Insured's name,
(2) Load number or ticket number,
(3) Crop,
(4) Gross weight,
***
(5) Tare weight,
(6) Date weighed,
(7) Net weight of production,
(8) Field identification from which the production was harvested that can be
correlated to the unit numbers2/ for the crop stored, and
*** (9) Identification and location of farm-storage structure in which the load(s) from each
field are stored and/or satisfactory explanation of disposition of the production if
any or all of the production is no longer stored at the time of inspection.
1/ Weight tickets from grain carts should be photo copied since the print can disappear
with time.
2 The adjuster must verify that the field identification numbers can be correlated with the
unit numbers for the crop for the current crop year. If the field identification cannot be
correlated to a unit number for the crop, the weight tickets/records cannot be considered
acceptable.
