installation of LSS-1

[coldfront]

got my tests done (taking math classes on line) early this morning...so this gave me some time to play with the boat...I installed an HDS-7 last spring...and picked up the LSS-1 module this past January...so it was time to put it together...

I'm very 'slow' when it comes to eletrical stuff...so I end up having to read the instructions about 4-5 times...and retrace steps 9-10 times...

so, let's just say I was involved with lots of learning to day...

Ran out of time to complete...two last things to do:
1.  connect the LSS-1 to power
2.  mount the LSS-1 box under the console...

Shouldn't take too much longer...  then I'll be 'water ready'...

Coldfront,  When you decide you really need the 10 instead just send the 7 to me so it doesn't clutter up your garage.

If I were to go up a size, it'd be the '8'...but I don't believe you need to worry about that for a very long time Shawn...a very, very long time...

April 9th should be my first day on the water...and my first opportunity to 'get to know' my new equipment...

hoping to take some images that I can share...


Really looking forward to June and taking this up to South Dakota (chasing pike, smallies and largemouth)...seeing if I can take some photos of a few 'gators' (40+ inch pike)...

Just installed the HDS 7 this past sunday and the structure scan come in tomorrow. I will have installed by end of the evening and then my hds 5 is on back order.   I was actually very pleased with the 7.  Is size is pretty big.  I put i on a big ram mount and man it looks nice.  Cant wait to use it this weekend.  Its a ton to learn though.  Makes the old x-87 look like caveman stuff.
