So, several threads over the past couple months, plus reading a bunch more - I think I've got this figured out. But figured I would review to be sure I'm not missing anything or have something mixed up.. :).
Will be a stand alone setup, as all my other electronics are Lowrance including a Ghost TM and AT2. I've decided on the Ultrex mount version, even though the Fortrex version will work on the Ghost. I feel the Ultrex version has more flexibility in mounting, especially with aftermarket mounts or in the event I change TM's later.
95% sure I am going with a Helix 12, but may move to the Solix with the rebates out now... still deciding. However, my plan was DI+ version. But do I need the transducer? Since Mega360 does not provide depth, one would need an additional transducer to display depth on the HB screen, ie the Mega DI+ transducer. But where I am confused, does adding M360 disable the Mega DI+, or would I will be able to use both still.
Will need the AS GPS HS so I can see/mark wayponts on the HB screen as I understand it. I hope heading sensors don't interfere with each other, as I also have the Ghost HS on the bow as well. Will have to do the compass/magnetics check to find a good spot for it hopefully.
Since going with the Ultrex version I'll need a different mount as well... leaning towards the BFE Ghost mount, or maybe one of the adapter plate style.
Can't think of anything else - am I missing anything? Uggh I hope I am not making a mistake. Adding a 2nd AT2 dedicated to scout mode seems like it would be soo much simpler (and less $$$) lol.
