| I have the sirus radar weather. It works around nestor falls up towards the angle. It has also shown thunderstorms when zoomed out over Minaki, Eagle, and Lac Suel while my boat was positioned on LOTW. I have attatched a couple of LOTW screen shots for you taken from my HDS unit. I probably should have taken a few screen shots of approaching storms, but then I am likely fishing hard or getting ready to leave. For those who read this I post I sure like the Sirus weather option. Last year I had a guest out fishing with some rather unstable weather. My guest had forgotten to bring his rain gear. I was able to see approaching storms and make it to shore just in time on several occassions and kept him dry. It also let me know where the lightning strikes were and approaching wind changes so that I could be on the spots I wanted for a wind switch. While all these new technologies cost some money; it is my feeling I want to take every advantage I can on the water. In my younger days I caught a lot of fish out of a 14' lund with a 9 horse motor and a green box. If I had the new technologies back then I imagine my production would have been even better. After having structure scan and sirus weather I wouldn't want to own a boat that doesn't have those two features because of some of the advantages they provide in locating fish and timing weather systems.
