Disapointed and a little stupid
I decided to go on a shake down fishing trip. Water was stained, big time, temperature was 63 degrees. Did not get a bite. Every thing worked, batteries, motor and etc. I have a Elite 7 HDI sonar unit, I am not sure if the transducer is working properly or I haven't got the correct settings. I have this on a Lowrance switch to toggle back and forth, front to back. when I tried to make adjustments to the sensitivety and colorline, the buttons would stick. Making adjustments almost impossible. The down scan sometimes would not work at all regardless of the speed. I have another transducer that I may try on the next trip. If I could go back to when I bought this unit , and knew what I know now.....I WOULD NOT BUY AGAIN. I noticed the unit was warm, is this natural. I bought this unit from one of our board members. I paid about $650. I could buy 2 Garmin 551 dv units. Forget GPS , not into waypoints ,mapping and so forth. I am not sure chirp is all it should be, especially with the units on the market now. Sorry for sounding off. Maybe I am just not smart enough.... Anybody with suggestions , I will listen
