FYI: Over the last few weeks, HB has released new S/W for many of their units. It appears to be mainly a bug fix release. Release notes indicate a fix for shallow water performance and bug fixes with LakeMaster and some Navionics 2010 charts. Check you HB account for the download.

Thanks, I have noticed some oddities in shallow water and almost no fish showing up on the display, even though I can see the marks on the display, no FishID showing up. I hope that's what is part of the update. I fish normally in under 20 feet of water.

Re: HB S/W updates

The shallow water problem was the digital display depth was jumping all around, even though the 2D graph was steady.

In shallow water, you typically don't see many fish. The transducer cone covers only a small area, and you tend to scare them away from the boat.
