Thread: So whats all the talk about the HB GPS

I have seen a lot of threads talking about a problem but havent seen the exact thing thats being talked about...i havent noticed anything like that with mine yet at any kind of speed

Luke, which model do you have? This "thing" only seems to affect
certain model numbers, and it isn't by any means the lower-end units.
In fact, seems like some of the older, cheaper units don't have "the problem".

I tried, best I could, to explain it on the post by Specwick here, close to
this one - reply #11 I think. Holler at me if you can't find it.
Want to make clear, I'm not bashing them, I like mine pretty good and
ain't gonna trade for awhile given what these things cost now.
But they do have some personality flaws that bother some folks,
and I've been known to get kinda short with a few folks who aren't
bothered with the problem and insist that it doesn't exist
Some folks don't notice it, some do.

Longline trolling, it doesn't bother me a bit. It's while spider-rigging, or
trying to get right on top of something to single-pole fish is when it
bothers me a little.

i have a 997SI unit on the console and a 957c on the bow interlinked using one antenna

Well, the 787,797 and 997 are the ones I've heard it most about -
I don't know many folks with the 957. Is that the big 8" screen without
side imaging?
The first two are what I have.
Like I said, some folks don't notice anything, and then some do but
get used to it and it's not a huge problem (Like me).
