Thought I had posted this [CRS]
I have a [7] &[8] hooked together--Both with a navionics chips--Last fishin trip they would only zoom to 100ft--usally 50ft--Checked today in the garage and they went to 50ft
Any thoughts on this happenin ??--Doesn,t make any difference what size page
100ft ain,t good to get close with
I am en-route to Big Bear KY. I will try the soft/hard resets recommended by Lowrance, but I remain skeptical.
.DohDoh
Thats what I was going to try today but when they went back to 50ft by themselves I did,nt want to rock the boat---DohQuote:

HDS8 with insight maps will zoom in to 20 feet with 1 or 2 panels displayed. HDS8 with Navionics map chip will only zoom to 50 foot with one or two panels, but will only zoom to 100 ft with 3 or 4 panels open.
HDS7 with base maps (after soft reset) will zoom to 20 feet. When the Navionics chip is installed, it will only zoom to 100 ft
After removing the Navionics chip, I could only zoom to 50 foot with base map. Had to soft reset to zoom back to 20 foot.
This 50/100 ft zoom limitation ain't worth a chit for crappie finding. Not happy. No zoom problems with my 10 inch Garmin 3210 GPS or my 2 inch Garmin 76.
Billbob will be joining me at Ky lake tomorrow. We have 2 HDS7 and 2 HDS8 with various maps that we will check out and compare.
