    Mega 360 Heading Sensor

    I almost ordered a new Humminbird heading sensor for my (hopefully soon arriving) Mega 360. I saw in a previous post that Wayne stated that you can use the Minn Kota I pilot heading sensor. Thanks Wayne.... you just saved me $200. I'm sure I'll have numeous set up questions after everything is installed!!

    Wayne, is there a setting under the 360 or exactly where exactly do you select the heading source for the 360? I had the heading sensor temporarily mounted for my 360 but think now I’ll just use the pilot link heading sensor.

    Think I found the thread discussing this, I’ll go check my Helix unit and figure it out.

    There is no "setting" for Fixed or Enhanced. It is an indication of the quality of the satellite tracking.
