I got your message from the BBBC. I did mine myself. I also installed the GVC10 and 3 trasnducers. I also run panoptix. You will like the system. If you need anything let me know.

Here is everything I have including the Panoptix transducer. Can you identify the transducer in the pic? I need to but another transducer and trying to figure out which one I need.

Looks like the GT22 but it's hard to say. Is there not gray tag on it? Also can you power it up and pulg it in?

Hey Coachallentca do you have a wiring diagram to install everything?

I believe you need a CV22 HW-TM. That is a regular sonar and down view. If I'm correct it is not high speed. Good luck.

I am running the GT 8, GT 22 and the GT 30. All network through the GCV10. My units the 1040xs and the 721xs

Thanks Coach you have been a great help. I have always used Lowrance this will be my first time using a Garmin product.

I did the same thing also. I went from Lowrance to Bird to Garmin.
