No Cand Pole, we don't sell components or PCBs. I don't know that the 998 PCB will plug up the same as the 997 PCB does. We didn't just copy the 997 PCB - it's a whole new design.

Can I buy a 998 main board only? I can change it out myself.

Pretty sure its the same display but heard the plastics had to be modified to fit the new connectors on the back and possibly the changes to the PCB.
Have you heard why Humminbird went from Jan 27th to "Mid-March" for the 998 release? Problems?
I haven’t heard a word about this but than that’s not the part of the company that I work in either. Since coming back from Christmas and New Years vacation I have been buried with training and safety related stuff (that’s my official job) and so have not been to any meetings to hear about this. I know that there are many people that worked some OT this last week (including me!). I’ll try and remember to ask about this during the Wednesday morning meeting.

Greg, please post the address and the time of the meeting. I know, even without asking that CP and rnvinc would be happy to split the cost with me of having donuts delivered for ya'll to munch on.
Don't worry, we won't tell those engineers who gave us the info. We protect informants here on C.C.
