That's a nice piece of equipment. I bet it does everything a guy would ever want except play 8 tracks.

No but it sure does help. When you run past a brush pile and see a bunch of fish hovering up above and out next to the brush you can pretty much surmise those fish are active and can be caught. We them suckers are tucked down tight into the brush they are usually a little tougher to coax up onto a hook. Man the electronics today are awesome. When I was a kid all dad had was a flasher. Later on we got a paper graph, anybody here still got one of those laying around? We thought it was the cat's meow, if we would have only known where this stuff would end up....

Congrats on the new unit. It doesn't get any better. Am runnin HDS 10 and HDS 8 with E-Net--fantastic. Spend time gettin to know the HDS 10, it's one powerful tool. I keep my rig parked in the garage. After install I sat on bar stool beside boat and learned to navigate the HDS screens and menu options for a week. Saved a lot of time on water readin a book.

BIG RIVER, i have a few questions if i buy an 8 and a 10 and put the structure scan transducer on my transom and the LSS box in my rod locker and hook the 8 on the bow with another standard transducer on the trolling motor will it allow me to share waypoints and swap to the transom transducer if i am up on the bow with the 8 ??? I guess in other words does it have the capability in the LSS box for me to swap transducers without unhooking them ???

I guess I'm lucky. I've been running the HDS10 and HDS7 with the LSS-1 for 2 years, and I know it like a book. I just upgraded to the Gen 2's. I'm

Got my 10 Gen1 and the LSS-1 for sale if anyone could use it. New everything except the screen. New warranty also. It was my demo, and never registered. Will get NEW, LSS-1, New cables, transducers, Brackets, Power cables, etc. just swapping the unit itself. You'll get everything you see in the box cept the new 10 screen .

Yes. You have to tell the units to network with each other. That's the way mine are now. It will not share sonar, just GPS, and Stucture Scan.
