I want to say a big thanks to Allen Silver for installing my Lowrance LSS-1 last week. He did a fine job and everything works great. Also a big thanks to Bill Carson who helped me out with the 3.0 Update and with the settings on my HDS 8. We are very fortunate to have someone of Bill's caliber here at Lake Lanier to assist and educate us on Lowrance products. The end result is more fun and better success on the water. Thanks again to Bill and Allen.

Hey Doug, I couldn't agree with you more! Bill C I moved my LSS off of my alum plate and everything is fine now except some verticle lines on my 2D screen. I have been hearing of other people having this problem as well. Do you have any insight to this anomally.

Other than that I am up and running true.

Dan, I didn't notice the lines. With all of the fish you have been catching I am surprised you even had time to look at your Lowrance(LOL). I'm not sure what would be causing that issue. Maybe you HDS 10 owners should swap out to the HDS 8. On a smaller screen you don't see stuff like that. I'll swap you even.

Throw in your bait tank leaning post combo and you got a deal...LOL

Ok

Here are a few shots of my issue...

I have insulated the bracket completly from the boat, so there is no metal to metal contact. The wiring as far as I can tell is correct and these screen shots were taken when no other boats were around.

same exact lines I now have.

So does anyone know what these are or how to fix?

LtSmash, I have not gotten any feedback as to what these vertical lines are from. I will tell you this: while running in shallow water if you will switch your 2d graph to 83khz and your down scan to 800khz you will get a much clearer picture in which to desifer your bottom searching. As to the lines I have no clue as of yet, but am still searching for aswers.

So are these vertical lines showing up ONLY when running the New HDS 3.0 software? Did they also show when running the prior version?

They were there prior to the update for me at least. They only appear while LSS is on
