Lowrance HDS-8 Gen 2 with radar - CHIRP possible?

So I am finally installing electronics on the 25 footer. I have a HDS-8 Gen2 non touch, and a 3G radar.

The 20 footer has the same display and structurescan HD/LSS-2.

I was wondering about the Point-1 GPS antenna, the Link-8 DSC/AIS radio and some sort of sounder. But I can't tell if the SonicHub can feed CHIRP to the HDS-8 Gen2.

I want a non touch display, and I have another HDS-8 Gen2 (which also has LED backlight in addition to real buttons).

Anyone using a SonicHub with a HDS Gen2 non touch display?

you can do it with a sonarhub, not sonichub. I used one on my hds10 gen2. Also had point 1, link 8 and 4g radar.

Oops meant SonarHub. Thanks for the quick reply!

You HDS10 gen2 was non touch, right?
