Topic: Here We Go Again..Another Download For The 1197/1198 Units...the 5.7

[calli1]

Folks , I appreciate these new downloads of softwares issued by Humminbird but should I now or whould I wait ?  I didn't have trouble like some on the 5.5 downloads.   Are most of you going to test the download and do it ?  Thanks everyone....

Calli1:
I just checked, and the 5.7 update is not yet available for my 1197 on HB's website.
Unless they have something against me and haven't posted to my area.

As for me, I'm going to update the second it's available.
With the 5.5 software on my unit, it's absolutely useless to try and
playback a sonar recording.

ITG,,,,,we have 5.5 on the 1197 and it records very well.  No playback problems either.  what else do you have connected? We are using a 4 gig card and 20 minute recordings...Chuck

Chuck,
My unit is standalone with a big fast sd card.
Records very well, but playback's a b@tch.
