  7. Can Trail Lengths Be Lengthened On A Helix?

    I have a Helix 9 3G. Are plot trails preset in length or can I extend them? Lowrance people should never be allowed to buy a HB and HB people should never be allowed to get a Lowrance. I went from...

  11. How can the image be clearer on the other side?...

    How can the image be clearer on the other side? How does the transducer know what side it’s on if it’s got good clearance both left and right?
  12. Transducer Mounting-Are we different up in the north?

    Everything HB puts out says the si/di 3 in 1 ducer should be mounted on the right side of the motor looking from behind the boat. Lindners group at Angling Edge says tiller boats should have ducer in...

    Helix Screen Saver?

    I guess if my new Helix will get permanent spots from sunscreen I better start looking for a screen saver. First off, do they spot? Second, do the ani glare ones reduce visibility? This seems absurd...

    The difference between the Gen3 8 & 9 is 1 diagonal inch, same pixel count and hardly even noticeable. The $300 difference would buy a zero line card and a map card.

    Bob, I think I’m capable of figuring out the whole thing, but that’s not my point. These things are plenty complicated and the manufacture should have good instructions out there. Something as...

    The book and info that comes with a new Gen 3 Helix 9 basically shows you how to get power to it and install a transducer. When I scour the sticky's they all seem to be from old generations. Even on...
