I am starting to get pretty nervous about the new birds. i took a buddies on a 5 day fishing trip and really liked the unit. only problem is it SUCKS battery huge.
anyways, i liked it and bought one. i have been having troubles with the unit not starting up. so i call humminbird and they did send a new one out.
well, i tried the new one this weekend and it does not suck battery as much, but the bottom jumps all over the place. i was in 45' of water and the bottom read at 18'. Needless to say i am calling Bird on Monday and asking them to send out another new unit.
I know it is the first year, but how can a flasher be SO difficult to figure out. I am just hoping i didnt screw up here going with the bird. hoping they send me a unit that actually works as well as the first one a i tried.
