I am getting a new HDS10 on my new boat and was wandering how to get the waypoints from OziExplorer to the Lowrance . I am assumming I am going to have to convert the waypoints and was interested in the ways to do it in advance.Anyone done this yet? I have several hundred waypoints and was wanting some help. Thanks......Ifish
This does it all.
GPS Visualizer: Web interface to GPSBabel
Here is how I do it with Ozi...
In Ozi, go to File-Configuration-GPS tab- Change to Lowrance (I use LCx-15MT (USR File))- Save. After that you will notice that your have a Lowrance tab at the top. Load a map and your waypoints then click on the Lowrance tab at the top and choose "Save USR File". Choose the location you want to save to (the drive that contains your your SD card) and your files will be sent to the SD card. Then put your SD card into your unit and upload them. Hope this helps.
Thanks everyone. Can't wait to see what all the stake beds I put out look like on the downscan.
Sixfin,How is it going on your end of the lake. Been slow on the north end today. Everything still scattered. Might have to drag out the spider rig.Friends been doin good on jigs tipped with minnows. I have been trying not to use minnows any more,But. You still puttin out them fantastic crappie beds? Thats a lot of work and then get everything side scanned,Poo.I had to quit the big stuff got my back messed up......Ifish
ifish,
Jonathan is full of little 8-9 inch fish. Tried spider rigging today but they didn't seem to like that so we went to two pole vertical jigging and that did better. Cleaned 15. I know what your talking about on the minnows. I hate minnows. We put out 25 more beds this winter. The way we figure it, they can't fish all of them at the same time. If we put out enough, surely there will be one somebody don't find.:D
I like your style on the beds. When I first started crappie fishin I had 3 places that I knew of and if I didn't get there before the crack of dawn there would be 3 people on those spots. Yes they can't fish them all and I got to keep reminding myself to have fun even though someone is sitting on one of my best spots I put out.You see it all after a while.Thanks for the Ozi info and I just noticed your new avatar.You made that I bet. Looks like a 3 pounder!! One of these days I would like to see how you make those beds less the GPS cords. I saw you all at the ramp a few years ago and man what a set up.Great for the crappie population.Take care and tight lines........Ifish
