Okay guys just spoke with a rep. from marcum on the lx5tc and lx3(olsd series) for all of you guys looking to upgrade the lx3 to a lx3 tc this IS GOING TO BE POSSIBLE.within the next few weeks they are making a program to do this.what we will have to do is send our unit in to marcum and for 50 bucks they will install the program into our lx3.i thought this was very resonable.this price includes shipping and they will post on there HSOforum when they are taking our lx3's in for repairs..(sounds like an auto mechanic)lol..also the new lx5tc are going to be available with in the next week so keep looking on there HSOforum for this new information.the rep. said that the new true color is absolutly unbelievable compared to the old colors.just thought id pass along some info..-joe-

They do this by changing just the software? I thought that the LX-3tc uses 3 bulbs (yellow, green, red) where the original LX-3 uses only 2 bulbs (yellow, red) and mixes them for the orange.

...and check out the 'Store Sales' forum on this site: CNY Tim noticed Reed's HSOforum has the LX-3 marked down to $279, free shipping. So, for $329 you'd have an LX-3tc.

Schweady,

I see your from Perham. I have a buddy that moved up there a couple years back. Bought a place off of Rush. He builds bridges in the summer and fishes like theres no tomorrow in the winter. What a life!

It's the good life, no doubt! The trouble with fishing like there's no tomorrow is that the alarm still goes off at 6, but I'm hoping to get out on the ice a lot more this year than previous years.
