Imagine all the guys that just bought the Helix 5 or 9 with high price and now they miss the best feature ever so far.. AutoChart LIVE..

next steps for HB is to allow Bluethoot and WIFI sharing data to other device and bingo they are full equiped

HELIX 5 CHIRP G2 product manuals are on the HB website ... (no G2 listings under HELIX 7, 9, 10 or 12) ...

Select HELIX 5 and you will see the list of G2 manuals ...(even tho they're all the same manual) .. 

When you download one, the manual is actually for the HELIX 5 & 7 CHIRP G2  ..

http://www.humminbird.com/WorkArea/DownloadAsset.aspx?id=12803 (http://www.humminbird.com/WorkArea/DownloadAsset.aspx?id=12803)

Autochart Live page 178 in the HELIX 5-7 SI CHIRP G2 manual ...
-----

And this on page 101 ...:

I don't see anything about Ethernet ...

How does chirp side imaging compare to non-chirp side imaging, is it noticeable on the 5 inch screen?

We don't know yet mako ... no one has their hands on the new G2 yet ...

Other brands that have utilized CHIRP for imaging seem to gain a little more range in SI ...

We shall see with HB's version of imaging CHIRP ...
