I had nothing but problems with Mega live, fought it for a month. I switched to Garmin, and chose the 1222. It’s been really great and have it dialed in pretty good. I run a 12 helix up front for 360, and the 1222 for live scope. It’s been awesome! Going through the settings on the Garmin is cake. If you can l9ng-term loan me your Live, I'll see if it can be dialed in and report back my success or failure. It'll be a Win-Win!

Both Lowrance and Garmin use a black box for processing of the Livescope / Active Target signals. Humminbird does not. I think you can see the results. Garmin offers a non black box option with their newer Echomap series, but the results look like Mega Live. I presume Humminbird will be going the black box route.

My dad likes the idea of being able to view the live from the back that’s the only reason we would link. If you have the appropriate Garmin with WiFi, you can connect to an iPad and watch from anywhere in the boat.
