Welcome from Branson Mo. de K0UA

Thank you James!! Nice looking station and tractor I see on your qrz page. I see a grapple in my future for my tractor too but it will be a while I am afraid.

I am Wagtail!! Seems like a good group of people here and a few fellow amateur radio operators too. Can't wait to get some seat time in the new tractor and do a few mods....Stereo and ham radio. Thanks for the welcome sir!!

Yes, a grapple can be a pretty handy thing to have.. Forks are good too, and less expensive, but when you have a lot of logs, rocks or brush to pick up, hard to beat a grapple. My Kioti happened to have a convenient to operate rear remote lever, so I use a rear remote to power up the hydraulic cylinder on the grapple. If you want, and have the time you can read about it in the threads below.

Great to have you aboard Ed, great place for learning, teaching, and fellowship. Before retiring I spent much time in Bangor and surrounding areas.

Thanks for the welcome HillStreet!! What part of southern Maine do you live in now? I have family that lives in Buxton but do not get down that way very often anymore. I will be needing all kinds of help with this tractor and glad I found this site. Found out last night that I am not very good with a backhoe either.:banghead:
