I have a humminbird 1197 unit that I'm having some issues with but this model is on the unserviceable list. Am I just out of luck or is there someone that works on these units besides the factory?

Any quality electronics repair place should be able to take care of it. PLEASE do not toss it in the trash - happy to take it off your hands if you do not want it repaired
That’s good info Rickie.

I saw some more sales for the G2 Helix in the Bass Pro flyer the other day.
