A few comments on some specifics you mentioned . .
"Here are some of the issues: Company that does crop harvesting seems to park all there junk on it at will. Recreation of all types, someone was flying an rc plane and another used it for a clay pigeon shooting area!!!! Dirt roads people use to go from point a to b . . ."
People have obviously been using the land and likely do not feel like they need permission. This was the same situation I had when I bought 100 acres of woods in the Tug Hill Plateau area of northern New York. People drove through our land to get to other lands beyond our's. One weekend I showed up and a father and two teenage sons were in my woods cutting down trees for firewood. When I asked what the heck was going on, the father said "oh, I thought this was state land." That of course makes no sense since if it WAS state land, he still was not allowed to cut trees there.
A few months later we came up and found a guy with a big Cat dozer widening and "improving" our road. So I asked him what was going on,and he said he was hired to make the road good enough to get a log truck through by someone past us in the woods. I told him to write a letter, and get it signed by a notary, stating he had no right on our land and would stay off of it. This or I'd press charges against him. He did it. This sort of nonsense went on for years. It took all the enjoyment out of owning the land.
I replanted some trees where the guy with the dozer "improved" our road. I also put in posts and reflectors make the road only 8 feet wide. A few weeks later they were all pulled out and new trees cut down. I caught the guy doing it with his IH tractor and sickle-bar mower. He told me he had to do it since his tractor did not fit when the road was that narrow. He went on to tell me this was an old established "unofficial" town road and I had no right to stop him.
This went on and on. I managed eventually to get signed letters from all adjacent property owners attesting that they could use the road with my temporary permission and it was illegal for any of them to do any work on the road.
At this point, we had grown to hate the place and sold it. The guy we sold it to closed it off with a gate and had a big mess. Several adjacent property owners claimed to have "easements by prescription" and it went to court. How it ever worked out I do not know, but I am glad to be rid of that place.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
