Here is a question for those of running these units.
I have both running on my boat. The LMS 240 has not been able to hold contact with the bottom. It does one of these numbers....58' then starts counting down till it gets to 1.6 then it flashes and resets. Then it will read 45' and start the whole process again. It seems to just pick a depth and then start the count down. I tried it with the Vex off and it still ran goofy.
Lowrance has been great and has offered to fix it. The GPS works great. I'm starting to think it may be the Vex but I see others running both units.
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.

Has anybody else experienced this?
Thanks!
