I purchased a new Eagle 502c df sonar/charter 4 months ago and it recently freaked out. Would turn it self on and off and continually cycle thru the brightness settings. I called Eagle (Lowrance) and thet said it was a known issue so I sent it back, paid extra 4 overnight, after 5 working days I called and they said the unit was fried" and replacements were back ordered. But, they should have it in and out to me within their 7-10 day turn around window. Yesterday was the 10th working day so I called today and they told me they were waiting on parts and it would most likely be :atleast another week".
I asked 4 a manager and they said one would call me back. Nothing yet.
Additionally, when I purchased the unit from Boaters World Marine the salesmen told me that the unit could be "upgraded to support THE nema 2000 protocol just like the comperable Lowrance unit". Turns out that this is not true, the eagle line does not support this. I guess I should have looked into it more, but i REALLY HATE BEING LIED TOO!!!
ARGH
