    Default Need Help with 798


    Went out with the 798 for thr first time today. A couple of things frist the right side would not give me a side scan. The left side was good. Second I can not figure out how to make a recording. Any advise would be welcomed. Thanks

    I am going to assume that you have your unit set to scan both sides. Which side of your motor is your transducer? I have to trim up my motor so as not to obstruct the beam.

    On my 997 to record I hit the view button until I see "Snapshot & Recording View" I then hit my menu button and select start recording.

    Do you have a SD card in the slot? Have to be in snap shot view,then press menu once,then push the right side of the cursor. This will start the recording,then press again to stop. I might be a bit rusty on this. As far as the side scan make sure nothing is in the way of the transducer, also reduce the scan amount down. I reduce it on the bottom also,say if I am at NWR I will run the bottom about 20 foot. I get better returns. I am still learnin, A very good site is the humminbird side imaging forums. I have recived a lot of good info. A fellow is on from humminbird to help with questions. I know that some fellows will chime in here also.
