Sorry, don't have a photo but I mounted it where Ranger Factory mounts them (on the glass at the front left corner of the splash well (with you standing behind the outboard looking to the bow). It...

You understand the concept.

Yes, you could accomplish the same precision using a bow HDS set to use its internal antenna, and using the trolling motor transducer (if marking a waypoint from your...

sounds like you zoomed it in quickly all the way, and didn't wait long enough for the mapping to catch up. When you zoom in or out multiple levels at once the pixels get blurry while the mapping...

Yes, that is correct. It will come as no surprise that most people don't even give this a second thought when installing their antenna or transducers; instead they put them where they will look good...

OK, that is important additional information. The screen lagging is often a result of your antenna refresh rate setting. The factory default setting is Auto. You will prefer changing it to refresh...

Sorry, but I disagree. How does your unit know what lat and long to assign to your waypoint when you cursor over to your target on side scan to mark it?

The satellites locate your antenna...

Here is the deal, and why learning it is important.

Whenever you save a waypoint, the exact location you are saving is the location of the antenna/receiver you are using. If you have an...

Yes, your bridge would be exactly straight to the right of your transducer when it begins to draw it at the top edge of the screen. Remember, you are shooting a slice of a signal out to the sides...

If they are building tall rock piles on navigable water (like Kentucky Lake) with barge loads of rocks and no Hydraulic Project Approval permit, I don't think they can judge right from wrong...

Would need to see more photo's from different angles to tell. Depending on how wide it extends, it could be a pipeline, an old dam, a road bed, ridgeline, or most likely a spoils dump (gravel/rock),...

Yes, you connect both of your HDS units (up to 3 HDS units) to the StructureScan black box with ethernet cables and you can display your StructureScan on all connected units. You can also share your...

The lines are caused by your LSS-1 sonar signals bouncing between the jackplate sides and being read by your SideScan. They are more noticeable when you are in shallow water since they are expanded...

No doubt about it, the screen I watch the most is the quad screen (not an option on the HDS-7 or 5).

+1. Well put.

Great job on the win!

You need to travel a little more...if you aren't finding rockpiles and trees in 50+ feet of water you aren't winning tournaments out here right now. We often fish deep water and without these units...

Not sure if I understand your question completely, but here is the deal.

You can have multiple HDS units all view the images generated by a single LSS-1 (StructureScan/DownScan) transducer (and...

I get the same view that you do, Fishin.

John,

I think I have figured out what is happening, but I am only making my best guess; I have not spoken to anyone who knows for a fact the area of coverage for Lowrance's LSS-1 sonar. I hope...

Here are my first screen shots on my maiden LSS-1 voyage. The weather was gale winds, so the boat was really bouncing yet the pictures came out great!

These are on Lake Washington in Seattle,...
