If this is what the Helix looks like I can not wait to see the Solix images look like!

Are any of these pics from a mega 9
I don't think so Gabe, if you download them they are mostly 1024 x 600 which would indicate the H10 screen resolution, there have been a few H12 images posted here and there too (1280X800).

Looks like I should've got a 10! Haven't been on the water with it yet though. Maybe the simulation isn't how it looks on the water.
Post pics here...
The 1024 X 600 resolution VS. 800 X 480 is probably going to make a deal breaker for some.

First day out. Still tweaking.
Crappie fish fry. It don't taste any better.
Images on the 9 aren't bad tat tall! I will get some screen shots to post next time out!

Pics from my helix 12 mega
I found some broken transom welds while installing my new h12m transducer (that will hopefully be covered under warranty) but I couldn't resist launching the boat last Friday to test my new graph. I was super impressed how good the images were right out of the box. Can't wait to get my rig fixed up so I can really get the new electronics dialed in!
Can somebody post 455khz chirp pics? Mega imaging is cool, but for me most of the times there is need for higher scan range then 50 feet. Just wondering whether side imaging at 455khz has improved over previous generation models. Thanks!
so it seems everyone is using the Helix 10+. I was more considering the helix 9. Am I going to lose resolution or anything by having a smaller screen. So far I love the detail but want to make sure the 9 will live up to its big brothers.
thanks
I'm curious to get your thoughts about the following image. Would you, SI expert, say that the Chart speed didn't match the boat speed since the lines appear to be stretched ?
Was the boat going to slow ? The other pictures are showing a speed of 0.9 mph and looked cleaner compared to this one which was taken at 0.5 mph
Anyone have some 9" vs 10" mega comparisons. Based on another thread it appears the 9 is a step down as far as pixel resolution per sq inch when compared to its bigger brothers. Im trying to decide what I would like to get and the extra size of the 10 means extra $$. On top of that im not even sure I really need the extra size but dont want to lose the detail that im seeing in the 10's.
Send a PM to gabepeeps and ask him ...
He's got a H9 MSI G2N.

He was supposed to post some, but I know how he can get when he finds a wad of slabs...
I get distracted on occasion too.

For the Mega owners or users: I know the depths HB and they post on their Mega's, but at what depth would you skip to 800 or 455 kHz for SI and DI? Im just trying to justify the additional cost of the Mega or if I would be in the 455khz most of the time.
