Subject: RE: Lowrance HDS units


1. you can transer Lowrance to Humminbird, but easiest to do it on the software you get from Humminbird when you register your unit on line. Waypoints, trails and icons all transfer if you choose to transfer them.
2. Neither the new HD units nor the "birds" allow you to instantlay drop an icon at your cursor/arrow.
3. How do you drop an icon on the new units. "Enter a waypoint, then choose from the waypoint-menu to change it to an icon" It is still a waypoint but it shows as an icon symbol once changed.

I suspect many folks haven't figured out the advantage of marking structure with icons versus just waypoints.

I have written a letter and sent an email to humminbird requesting they look into adding this feature to their units.

That said, I've purchased two of the "old" 500 series units. But I really want to do business with Humminbird due to their customer service levels being substantially better than Lowrance.
