Re: opinions please

Bought the HDS-5 with the Navonics maps last August. I really like it. Found it quite easy to use. I also got the LGC 4000 GPS antenna they recommended for it cause I have a T-top on my boat. Funny thing is I haven't installed it yet because the GPS works fine under my top. I've also been reading about the new LSS-1 StructureScan module that will be coming out soon that will attach to it. I went back and forth between this unit and the Hummingbird with the structural scan. Decided on this one because the last couple of finders I had were Hummingbirds and I didn't have much luck with them holding up. So decided to give another company a try. So far I'm very pleased with it.

Re: opinions please

This guy is selling an almost new Lowrance 520C (combo unit) for $450....I think it's between 7-800 new. If I had the money I'd be jumping on it as my 68C is acting flukey (might be that the transducer needs replacement)

I have the Lowrance 520c and have had no problems at all. I find Transducers are the main problem with most units, so I run two ducers and a switch box for 5 years now. Seems I go through a ducer every season, but I was told Ping adjustment can cause that, stay with factory setting, if you do raise it, be sure to put it back where it was from the factory.

I'd make the guy an offer he can't refuse.
