    New Solix setup

    Anyone actually dialed in a new SOLIX? Looking for setup info. What seems to be working best?

    Can you be more specific with "setup?" The installation or settings?

    settings.
    What to turn on, what turn off.
    Sensitivity setting
    Contrast
    filters?
    color scheme that seems to work best.
    I saw on one menu what appears to be settings for radio. Is there something that can be hooked up to play music? I have sonic hub on my Lowrance system now but haven' t seen anything like this for Humminbird.

    I've been told that a Fusion Link unit will allow you to play a radio and be controlled through the new Hummingbird units. I've been trying to find out more info, but so far have not gotten much feedback yet. Can't help you with the settings as I'm new to Birds too and still waiting on my units.
