It is a hook 2 with split shot transducer so from what I’m seeing is I will need a lower frequency transducer. 

I'm checking if you can use the Splitshot transducer of the Reveal w/o using a adapter cable.If so it's going to be the cheaper way to achieve some excellent results.

Theproblem with the HOOK2 is the 40deg. wide cone. The Ti is 20deg. cone

I just bought one of the new reveal models for the back of the boat.  I've never been a lowrance fan.  I'll let you know

You are going to be very happy with the Reveal

Hate my hook2

Best thing to improve greatly youre HOOK2 is to get an adapter cable and get a real transducer. The transducer that is coming with is meant to fish in shallow water; it’s a 200khz but with a 40 degr. cone.

Thanks.  Do you know the model of the auto pilot #

Cable steer autopilot: 000-11749-001

Don’t expect paying $500 

Thats why I mentionne: check the alignment 

Enjoy, now

You need to check the alignement and you need to push in very hard 100% of the time it’s because the plug is not fully in.

Hello,

 

Looking to outfit a new boat with a GPS fish finder. I am so confused as to which "built in" maps will actually work on Lake Ontario. I see 4000, 9000 lakes "included" on various models, but none seem to include Lake Ontario. 

 

I don't really need side scan or many of the bells and whistles. It seems to get a decent unit with a "included" map of Lake Ontario is hard to find.

 

Which map are you using? Your input would be appreciated!

Take a look here and once the blue botton on the bottom left of the page is active click on it and you will get the 1ft contour: https://webapp.navionics.com/?lang=en#boating@9&key=ablhGtttyM

My unit is a hook2 7x tripleshot, it will not take a navionics card.

It's not because of the card it's because you made a wrong choice with your 7X; this model is only a GPS it can't read a card

Don't make the same mistake I made.I bought a lowrance, installed it on my boat, bought a navionics card only to find out my lowrance will not read the navionics card. 

Impossible unless you bought a Navionics Platinum and you are running a unit that can't read a Platinum. Every units can read a Navionics +

If you think the screen is to small just link it on your 10" tablet

I'm surprise that I didn't get any interest specially with the Navionics card

No, even if you reset with a hard reset it doesn't remove the latest software; with a hard reset if you didn't save your waypoints they will be lost. Another reset (the one that being showed in the video) is a soft reset; with that one you don't loose anything.

A good habit if you need to do a hard reset is to save your settings with the waypoints so once the reset is finish you import your waypoints and settings so you don't need to reset all the features.

I don't understand what you mean by: software updates are trashed?

My translator is not sure with that one.
