gr8icefishinmind Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Just bought a HB 55 and took it out last saturday for the first time! I put the transducer down the hole and turned it on and got no reading! kept fluctuating from 0ft-20ft and back and forth! played with it a bit but couldn't get it to take a reading! any suggestions????

Sparky81 Posted December 20, 2008 Author Share Posted December 20, 2008 gr8icefishinmind thats not what I wanted to here . Hopefully I will have better luck with mine. I did not receive mine today so I guess I will be taking out the Fl8 tommorow. Has anybody ordered from Reeds before, do they ship it fast? They did not give me a tracking number so im not sure when it will get here . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esox_Magnum Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 I have always had quick shipping from Reeds just not what i ordered. Then the charged me shipping twice and took 2 month to credit my account. Hope you have better luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that the machine looks awesome and I am hoping that the next time out it works just fine1 If not, it is getting returned and exchanged for another one!!! I don't give up that easy!!!

iafish4fun Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 For what its worth it seems the connections on the back cause most of the problems. May want to give them a look again. I thought that there was a post on here that the guy from Hummingbird was monitoring. May also want to search and see if you can find it. I don't remember the name of it, otherwise I would post it here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparky81 Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 Got my HB 55 and I love it as well. Now all I have to do is make it up north to give it the true test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
