Location: Lino Lakes, MN | 999 has the faster processor and an Internal GPS antenna- I believe that the GPS position is also updated 10 times per second vs 4 for the 998 with the external antenna.
I bought the 998 C HD SI last spring and love the detail. It was very easy to get started with. Now I want a second Humminbird.
Both units have the larger High Definition Transducer- If you mount it according to directions you would probably want a High Speed transducer and the Y cable to hook both of them up to the unit. This allows you to get great readings while running across the lakes- lots of people ask why they get lousy views at high speed - thus the second transducer.
I found lots of great information on setup and use of my locator at the Bass Boat Central websight. Great forums on both Lawrance and Humminbird.
Good Luck
Steve
