Does this unit have a menu setting where you can go in and change the GREY LINE? I don't have the HDS, but my sonar didn't show botttom contour hardly, and the grey line setting was too low. Just a thought.

the best recommendations is to tie a big rock around it and through it overboard after you mark the waypoint that is. Shadow1 has two on his new triton and I both pissed me off so bad last week, I would have one..... I cannot believe Lowrance put that on the market....

I have one and have had no issues- but, I read the user's guide! The only thing that irks me is that now I can SEE the fish, I can't catch them!</p>

Duncan, send me a PM with your email addy and I'll forward you some information. And, "greyline" is called "colorline" on the HDS.</p>

thanks for the info. I Bought the s,d card for navionics 09 platnium. today. it may be over rated for what i need, but i will let you know in two weeks if you may need this card. i think the price is gouging. the price i paid for the unit should of came with everything on it. DO NOT LET ELECTRONICS PAY FOR OUR WORLD EXPENSES.
