Thanks Rich!
 

Just ordered a Lowrance HDS-8, navionics Platinum+, and on special order the Airmar TM-260...my Garmin 198C crapped out last weekend went blank, has power, beeps, but LCD screen is grey. Time to upgrade and turns out Rich is 45 minutes up the road glad to give him the business, very helpful and responsive!

Josh,

You can try to load a new operating system on that garmin unit...that is if its not the screen. You get the file from Garmin. Sometimes this works :rolleyes:

Re: Thanks Rich!
 

thanks for that tip...i am gonna spray the unit down this eve with crc 656 cleaner front and back, see if helps. its getting power and ground is good. its worth a shot. prob cost me $$ though :(. i would love to have 198c for backup. funniest part was half way to stellwagon off truro from wellfleet harbor, and called off the trip with no gps. drifting while troubleshooting, and lo and behold tuna footballs turn up around the boat. they refused to bite though :( but made for some excitement among the 2 friends whom never seen tuna. anyhow this is a good excuse for an upgrade that my fiance is on board with.

The transducer has been ordered, you should have it soon.
