I just used my LakeMaster Chip for the first time, last night on Lake Geneva. The accuracy seems great. My only problem is that I have a hard time seeing the contour lines. Does anyone know if there is a menu that allows you to select a contrasting color for the lines. I have a 520C and I looked through a bunch of menu pages but couldn't seem to find anything. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

I was just going to post the same question. I am running a Lowrance 522c.
On PC software, you can change the lake view to add varying levels of "blue" to identify different depth ranges. Dark blue = deep, light blue = shallow and everything in between. That is what I would like to do on my Lowrance with the map chip. Sounds like Fish Hawk as the same question. Thanks.

Hit menu twice, select screen. Change the screen from normal or high contrast to night viewing. This will make it easier to see the shallow and mid depth contours, but the deep contours are still going to be tuff. Now if you have the unit split screened to run sonar with it. Hit pages twice to toggle to the sonar side, press menu and go down to sonar features. Once there change the background back to eithe white, blue or bottom color tracking. Hit pages twice to toggle back to the gps side and you should be set.
