Re: Feedback on HDS units
Love my HDS 10, and plan to get one for the bow to replace my 38HD soon.
My tribulations with the Humminbird 1197 are well documented here, and in comparison the Lowrance beats the Bird hands down.
No complaints here... not sure what everyone is beefing about on that other site.
