Question
Trouthunter
I had 2 brand new units out on the ice this weekend, and noticed problems with both of them.
1) on LX5 #1, when I switch to NBT, I cannot see my jig, however I can see the jigs in the the other holes in the house. on 20 degree mode, I can see my jig fine. I switched transducers between the units and that seems to be where the problem is.
2) On LX-5 #2, there appears to be a dead spot in the flasher unit. No LEDs light up between the 18 foot mark and the 20 foot mark. when I am on zoom, I can lift or sink the transducer to place my jig in that window, and when it hits 18 feet, the lights go out. Anyone else experience a similar problem? I noticed that my new upgraded LX3 with 3 color does the same thing! Are both units bad? I have to switch to 40 foot mode to fish in 18-20 feet of water, and it's kind of annoying! (I didnt check the other LX-5 #1 for this problem, since after I encountered problem #1 I put that one back in the cabin for the weekend.)
I will call Marcum tomorrow, but wanted to hear what other people thought about these issues.
