I upgraded from a 7sv to a 93sv, just so I could get screen caps, and sonar recordings.
Then I discovered just how pathetic HomePort is for viewing recordings. It's main failing is that it appears to only show about the first 40 feet of the sonar recording. Other threads suggest that Garmin is not going to fix this.
I went on a search for sonar recording viewer apps. I spent a -lot- of time looking. I was lucky in that I stumbled upon a product called SonarTRX. There is a specific version limited just to Garmin sonars (SonarTRX-GVU Pro), for about $109.00. This gives you a year of program updates, and a perpetual license to use the product. After emailing the company, I was sent a trial version. I've spent about 5 hours playing with the software, just viewing my sonar tracks. I spent an additional couple of hours learning how to use it to generate overlays that you can view in Google Earth. Google Earth is free software that you install on your PC, and the output from SonarTRX can be viewed in it.
The bottom line is that I'll be buying this product.
