    Garmin

    OK, I am outfitting my new Ranger RT188P and with all these different Garmin units, my old brain is about toast. I have decided on a 106UHD with a GT56 transducer for my console unit. I plan to purchase Livescope for the bow. I orignally thought I would get the 126UHD but now I see there is a 122UHD that is cheaper and the only difference I can find is the maps. Would I be wasting precious $$ if I got the 126 if it was a dedicated Livescope unit? Are there other alternatives? Dang Humminbird and networking were easy compared to this!!!!

    Only difference I know of is the maps

    As for the networking you must have been using Helix not Solix because the Garmin’s are plug and play networking compared to the Solix syncing and settings

    You will find updates are a breeze as well software loads the update on an SD card for you then you just turn all items on and put an SD card with update in one unit and it updates all of them

    No restore defaults or importing settings
