Hello all, this is my first post, just joined, so if this sounds stupid please forgive me this is all new to me.
Longtime Lowrance man ( is that a bad word here), fixin to make the jump to HB, so I have a few questions, I'm sure they have been answered here before
but being new I have no idea where to look, so please bear with me.
Units in question:
998c SI Combo
858c DI Combo
I want the 998 on the dash, the 858 on TM
if I ethernet the two together will they
1. share a single map chip
2. if I mark a spot on the 998 will the 858 see it
3. I want to be able to seek/search,mark spots, store gps #, read the map and all on the 998 and with the 858 on TM, go to that spot and do the fine tuning so to speak with DI
I would have the SI transducer mounted on the JP, and a DI transducer on the TM
I think two SI units would be overkill, I originally wanted 2 DI units but got talked into this combo, thought I might be missing something not going with SI.
When I first started to do this I had a ton of questions, but can't seem to remember them, so I guess my final question would be
Considering these 2 units, I know the 998 will do everything that I can imagine possible, but will I also be able to see,(except SI) everything I have done on the
858.
Any other items you deem necessary please throw it right in, like I said I'm new at all this
Thank you
