Anyone tried one of these models in any size or heard anything about them? I think the SI is in the MHz range so is supposed to show more detail. Thinking about upgrading from my 5 inch Humminbird.

I have the 10 and 9 SI Mega's. They are all that and a bag of chips. Detail is awesome.

I have the mega 10 on my bow and love it. The side imaging is crystal clear. Now I want to get rid of my 1198 on the dash and get a mega 12. I purchased through shutupandfish.com.

Been looking at the shut up and fish website. They don't list the megas or the MK TM I'm considering but I'm sure they have them. Read a lot of good stuff about SUAF on this forum though. I wonder if they offer any package deals or discounts if you get everything through them.

I bought a 12 inch mega from David. I haven't used the sonar much. Mainly SI and DI. It's nice. Especially the SI. Call David to buy one. If you just want to see one, I may hit Grapevine tomorrow.
