When in doubt, get it straight from the horses mouth:

However if you are good with wires you can make most antennas fit your unit since it is external mount...

GR 50 does not work with Fishfinder 595c
A very old machine. Only GR-16

You might have added the older model and the gr16 as you just did.....so the rest of us would not stick our foot in our mouths..

Before you send to HB check the pins on the unit where the cable plugs in.
If they are ok then its off to HB for repair..

Try to reset the device and update firmware.

Post by: joeyd50 on August 14, 2012, 04:32:10 PM: I reset Defaults and updated the software to the current software, it didn't help, is firmware something else I can update?
