Location: Stevens Point, WI | The only Lowrance units that are available with built in maps are the HD models. Stands for Hard Drive. Otherwise, if you own another model that is non-HD model, you must purchase the chips.
So models like the Lowrance LCX-113HD, LCX-38 HD and LCX-28 HD are the models that Lowrance offers with the built in maps and sonar combo. The rest of the current models do not come with built in mapping. Now if your looking for just gps models, the current globalmap 9200, 8200, and 7200 are the models that come with the built in mapping.
Your going to have to purchase two chips if you do not network the two units together. Refer back to Shep's post about networking. And no, I haven't seen a deal for two chips for $300. A deal like that is no different then buying one for $150. Approximately about what they cost pending what model chip you buy.
