That's a fact- the Lakemaster chip won't work in a Humminbird. Some kind of twisted corporate strategy between Lakemaster & Lowrance. It's to bad, as I think Lakemaster is really limiting their market and consequently their revenue potential. I would love to have a Lakemaster chip in my HB 997SI. I really don't like the Navonics chip. But, then again I didn't buy the HB 997SI for just the Navonics GPS chip.

My buddy has a Lowrance with Navonics and when we fished the Petenwell Muskie Challenge two years ago - I bought the Lake Master chip and gave it to him. The sonar and the Lake Master were dead on together - within 1' FOW accuracy.

Have fun!
