SF2 Ready: SF2 is a +/- 5 cm (2 in.) pass to pass differential correction signal provided exclusively by John Deere. While StarFire 3000 can be ordered SF2 Ready, SF2 Ready activation must be obtained by visiting www.StellarSupport.com (COMAR order number and receiver serial number are needed) and manually entered into receiver. Once activation has been entered, SF2 license can be purchased for either a few months or a few years.
