  1. I thought it looked like the AC plug. SE Kansas grass grower
  2. Your images will be blurred if not moving or moving slow. Turn your scroll speed up to see if that helps. On your sidevu, try manually setting the distance to 40 or 50' and see if that helps. SE Kansas grass grower
  3. Have had it for several months now. Gotta tell a little story that happened last Friday. A buddy and I were fishing an east Texas power plant lake. We were pretty much beating the banks and catching fish. Spotted a tree in the middle of the cove and went out to check it out. I got within about 30' of the tree and spotted a fish on the bottom about 6' to the right of the tree with my LiveScope and told my buddy. He made a cast to that spot and caught the fish on the first cast. A little later were coming up on a point as a guide boat was coming up on from the opposite direction. They went wide so we went close to the bank. As we were passing, I spotted another fish. I told my buddy (loud enough for them to hear) to cast at 11 oclock about 18' in front of the boat. He did and caught about a three and a half pounder. Needless to say the guide and at least one of his clients were in awe. I don't think the other knew what happened. The guide told him that I had spotted a fish in front of the boat and that my buddy cast there and caught the fish. LiveScope is the real deal! SE Kansas grass grower
  4. Where do you spend most of your time? In the driver's seat or on the front deck? I would put it where you would use it the most. SE Kansas grass grower
  5. Garmin striker series if you don't need built in maps. You can make your own maps while fishing and mark waypoints anytime. If you want built in maps, then the Echomap series is hard to beat. SE Kansas grass grower
  6. Wow, your moving from a land of 10,000 lakes to a land of 3 lakes. Good luck! SE Kansas grass grower
  7. I can't remember where but somewhere in 'setup' you can tell it which transducer to use as a default transducer. SE Kansas grass grower
  8. When you power up you can go to a sonar screen and it will tell you in the bottom left hand corner. SE Kansas grass grower
  9. If you haven't, limit your sidevu distance to 40 or 50 feet. SE Kansas grass grower
  10. Sprocket replied to Jig Man's topic in Marine Electronics
    Why do we still dial someone's phone number? No one has dialed a number in years. SE Kansas grass grower
  11. In 1988 I caught an 8 something in a little pond just west of Riverton, Ia. on the north side of the road. SE Kansas grass grower
  12. With the exception of Garmin LiveScope. SE Kansas grass grower
  13. If your lake is an Ultra HD lake you will like it!! SE Kansas grass grower
  14. The 92SV just has basemap. The 93sv has LakeVu HD mapping. The Striker series has no mapping. You can mark way points, trails as it has gps, but no contour mapping. If you get a chance run up to Bass Pro in Olathe and play with them. There is one guy there that is very knowledgeable about Garmin if you can catch him. I would go with the 93 sv plus because you have wifi, is touch screen and can add Panoptix and LiveScope which you can't with the Striker. SE Kansas grass grower
  15. Actually the LiveScope system including black box and transducer is listed at $1499. I'm pretty sure that's what the original Panoptix PS21 started at. I really figured it would be around 2K after using it the last several weeks. SE Kansas grass grower
  16. Clear vu transducer needs to be in the water. 2D sonar does not if installed correctly. SE Kansas grass grower
  17. Nice hoodie and windshield sticker.
  18. I think it's in the installation menu. Not sure tho. SE Kansas grass grower
  19. OFF! SE Kansas grass grower
  20. If your seeing lily pads then I got to believe you are in very shallow water. I would think it would be difficult to 'see' any fish with clearvu or traditional 2d. Your cone coverage can't be more than a couple feet. SE Kansas grass grower
  21. Be sure your plugins are completely plugged in. Your power and your transducer cable. On those you have to give them a little extra push sometimes. SE Kansas grass grower
  22. Most hook electronics up to the starting battery. SE Kansas grass grower
  23. Remember, 360 is showing you history. Panoptix is showing you live. SE Kansas grass grower
  24. That or go to a hardware store. SE Kansas grass grower
  25. If the fish are moving, absolutely. If they aren't, then it is difficult to destinguish between fish and brush or other cover. SE Kansas grass grower
