did you get amp scope fixed? you know , and i know , that aint gonna happen anytime soon .

. i did download the patch , i will install it tomorrow and test as soon as possible . i don't plan on learning arabic , so the patch is probably worthless . i ran this post to to say thanks to a member for helping me learn some of the features of the lowrance . i am more familiar with hummingbird . this scope problem is a pretty amazing flounder , other that that , the unit is pretty good .

Right on dude. I've come to the conclusion that a dialed in unit really does help you find the fish at the right depth

i am just finally understanding how to widen the beam and see fish .

. i did come to the conclusion that the scope goes to about 147' in custom mode . of course salty pirate has probably concluded this for himself? if we could grab just another 50 - 80 feet . can you give me a few pointers on doing the update salty ? i did the download . unzipped files , put card in , and started the computer . the system says version 1.86 - 1.9 . it should say 2.01 ? what am i doing wrong? thanks for help .

did you take out the sd card then turn it off, restart and should be good to go.

Are you using the 83khz setting?

Remove and reboot. Yes 83 kHz . Went custom, and did increments of 1 and tested it dry land . You can basically see when it cuts out.
