MyFishFinder.com Just like iceshanty but warmer
Is there really a legitimate danger of the transducer overheating with the ambient temperatures encountered while ice fishing?I never turn my unit off while fishing. 50% of the time I even forget to turn it off when I pack-up for the day, and only turn off when I get home to recharge the battery. Been doing this for years with chirp, panoptix, and livescope transducers.
Been using sleep mode.. hoping everything is sleeping when I use it. 106sv comes out of sleep mode as fast as you can press the buttons…
Also make sure to update the firmware. For that, you'll need a microSD card. That's also necessary for the auto-charting feature, if you want to use that.
The garmin needs a microSD card to update?
It needs one if you want to update the firmware. If you just want to update the included charts, I don't think you need one, but I could be wrong about that. https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?partNumber=010-01387-00&tab=software
