One mistake on your post---the stylus BURNED the image on the paper. There was no ink. Ever run yours at night? You could literally see sparks where the stylus met the paper.

I had a Lowrance 1510C that was the most detailed piece of electronics I ever saw. I honestly miss the detail I was able to get from it. I also owned a Lowrance X-16 and an Eagle Mach I, both paper graphs.

I still laugh about using my X-16 on Jonathan Creek on KY Lake during the crappie spawn. That thing beeped constantly and I had boats that would literally follow me around, let me drop a marker buoy, then run to fish MY BUOY before I could get turned around and back to it. I learned to drop the 1st buoy away from anything I wanted to fish. Needless to say, having folks run in on me like that caused some tense exchanges and probably some new words were created during those verbals.
