Thanks !

I don't even own a Lowrance unit, but this is a very straight forward, simple explanation of a "how to use". Kudos! You should start a youtube channel for us non techno dodo's like me! Good job. Do you know if it works the same with Humminbird units? 2019 Chevy Tahoe 2018 Basscat Eyra 250 Proxs PB Wife of 32 years! PB Largemouth 9.56 Ray Roberts
