Send it to me and let me see what I can do with it. Put a note in the box on what it is doing so I will remember. I can't make any promises, but I will try.

Thanks Joby, I'll get it off to ya asap. This would help me so much, I just can't afford a new finder right now, I'm on disablity and things are tough.
Thankyou for your interest Joby.

I thought man that would be stupid!! :rolleyes:
I know the unit was old [6 yrs] and only a one year warranty, but they should be able to work on there on there own product.
I'm a little disappointed with Humminbird, I didn't realize they had a cut off date on there products for repair, I wish I had known that before I bought Humminbird brand....oh well.
My next unit will be another brand for sure. Man I'm glad my truck is a Dodge and not Humminbird.

Gary hate to tell you. but the others also stop working on units when they get old like you and me..
Wish I was there. Its not hard to change that stuff.

Pete, I've gone thru the menu and theres nothing about spanish or english, and the lady at hb said that I counldn't change it, and they didn't work on that unit anymore.
I'm sure glad that hospital's don't look at things like that..lol.
The unit was sent off today to Joby @ HB and see if something can be done, I sure hope so, I can't afford a new finder right now, I'm doing without now.
I guess I'm lucky I live on Reelfoot with the lake being mostly shallow I can guess the depth pretty good.
You ole fart you and Marilyn come us and fish some, leave the 5th wheel at home and stay with us.

If I here you talk like that again I'll come to your house and slap little round
brown things out your booty, don't talk like that, there's people on this board that care about you, and would miss you very much.
If it is that bad I'll bring a BIG bottle of George Dickel and WE'LL get it better.
So, now that you got your head right call me some time you ole fart!
