So your saying nobody will compare their unit with your unit?
I sure am glad that this informative post turned into a "Mine is better than yours" debate. If I could ask a silly question. Just how do you know that the mark on the unit is 1 or 2 fish? Is this your interpretation or are you actually able to confirm that statement?Since the conception of the flasher unit it has always been the readers interpretation of the signal. Before the multicolor units came out it was the width of the signal on the screen that had to be interpreted as far as size goes. The 3 color units that are used today take a little of the interpretation out of it , but the basics are still there. Unless you have a camera down to actually see the fish than knowing exactly what your seeing is nothing more than an educated guess. Even with a camera down under the ice you don't know if the signal that you're reading is what the camera is showing. Most of the posts on here about these subjects are nothing more than someones opinion and without any scientific data to back them up. The funny thing about it all is that the guy that uses the Lowrance Little Green Box that was made in the sixties can tell you the same as the guy that uses either top of the line units made today.
The Video shows a target seperation of 1 inch and Esox_Magnum still wont say it has 1 inch seperation. the FL 22 and The FL 20 both have 1 inch target seperation. 1 inch is 1 inch 1.2 inches is not quite 1 inch. I still own a LX3 tc and my Vexilar
Kinda wasted your money if your going to stick your head down the hole anyway.Your last statement is just what I'm talking about. Your buddy didn't see 3 fish, but once he caught 1 of them there was still a mark on his screen. It's all interpretation
have not had to send in any of the 4 Marcum products I own or used to own one is at least 7 years old whatever the fist year of the LX-5 was....I did have a bad charger on my camera I bought used and even told Marcum it was bought used and they still sent me a brand new charger for free....
You seem to contradict yourself often......so which is it? You've never had to send one in orshaley December 11 2009 09:48PM Senior Member Status: online Registered: 03/23/04Posts: 3259 My last LX I got was bad out of the box, had a new one to my door with a shipping lable to return the broken one in 3 days. I wonder if you are so wrapped up in the fabrications you forget what you've previously said. Your credibilty goes down the tubes with just a little web search.
By knowing theres more than one allows you to decide what one may be the bigger and target that one or if they are all 3 dinks and not worth it to try and catch...WOW That is probably the craziest statement that I ever read on here.
Fl-20 is 2.65" target separation and 1" target ID.
Honestly, thats pretty sad that you would go looking for past posts to prove him wrong. Don't you have anything better to do? Maybe he was talking about mechanical flashers like the rest of us?
go to www.vexilar.com download brochure and on page 5 in the FL 20 Resolution it says target seperation of 1 inch at 20 foot setting. Hamms I know there is a difference, target ID of the fl 20 is less than 1/2 inch. ID is what the unit can ID and Seperation is the distance between the two
Since you didnt get the first two hints. It is spelled S E P A R A T I O N. I was going by what it said on the icefishingtoday website (owned by vex), it said 1".
And tell your wife I'm sorry for trying to change you!
I got it now a little slow. The product of the Minneapolis school system.
I thought it was nice how it ended on a simple spelling lesson.
Spelling correction, not lesson! I think I need the lessons.. thank god for firefox and its red lines.
