i got the date backwards .oh well
Let me know if you figure out the Head up Orientation. I turned it on in simulation but wasn't sure what was different between it and course up.
I just figured you was a eu ro pean or somethin.Quote:

yep...just as I suspected... No GPS speed on the image when the readouts are turned off...
Hope you 800 and 900 series owners are not trollers...HB has left you out on this one...
Rickie
rickie i see your point but i dont believe that if i were to slow troll i would want to use this view.please correct me if im wrong but i would use this view along with conventional sonar or di and that would have the transparent gps speed . would that not be the way that would be best.just asking ? you no that i dont slow troll or troll at all for that matter.thanksQuote:

I probably slow troll different than anyone else but I usually am watching SI/Chart or SI only to find and mark new structure as I troll...
The new option is not even available for my 1197 so its not going to affect me anyway...
I just find it disheartening (thats not really the right word) that HB finally figured out how overlay the data onto the screen like Lowrance does... But yet they chose to only provide 2 of the known readout choices to use...water temp and depth...
Once again I feel HB was coddling the bass fisherman's request of removing the readouts but they only really need temp and depth... And the heck with what any other type of fisherman may need...
If HB can overlay these 2 data fields... Why not other data fields that other types of fishermen would find usefull...
Rickie
I don't think mine took. Looks to me like the same thing, with no options to hide the readouts that wasn't already available. Seen some other stuff that was new. Didn't look at it long. Is there an option to move the readouts to the bottom? Thought that was one of the updates?
I hope HB shows some love to the xxx7 owners, like yourself. I went over to Bass pro today in KC and talked to the Lowrance guy for a couple hours, and believe it or not I saw bass lord Doug V there. Sooner or later, all units die off. I don't have the structure map on my gen 1 hds units, which is not a big deal for me, and I understand where it may be processor based. The readouts, shouldn't be a big deal on your 1197, and they sure as heck should take care of you.Quote:

rickie, i think that you might have contracted a very dangerous disease.i believe that its caused from over exposure to the humminbird donut.you should seek some help.hope you get better soonRoflQuote:

Good Luck. I warned Mrs Stymie about getting that extra module too. Not yet certain that I'm going to get it, but figured I'd go ahead and get her warmed up to the idea.Quote:
