Thank you, great videos always to the point no clutter nothing missed. I just installed all my stuff every video they missed something should’ve found you sooner thanks. Good luck.
It’s my favorite video! Nice work and thanks from all of us for the insight and education.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge of Garmin with us. Great information!
I just purchased today the garmin 106SV and the livescope LV34, I can hardly wait to use it. Your video is a great help for settings, thank you so much.
Awesome video buddy. I used mine today for the first time, and started with these settings. Very good starting point! Thank you.
Thanks for the info .... pick my 34 up in the morning and I'm hype to play with these settings this weekend ~
Great video I’m starting a 106sv and will start with your settings and go from there thanks for the info.
Great video, I really appreciate you sharing your experience with us.
I just got the 34 I thought this video was a big help thanks for putting it out
That presentation is on point! Great info as usual!
Great vid, as usual! Great looking transducer pole and graph mounts!
Thanks you did a fantastic job of explaining the Garmin's settings.

Don't apologize for that video. That was AWESOME information! Great explanation on the settings and why. Each lake has it's variations of conditions, so the settings have to be tweaked to fit the lake. I really appreciate the detail that you put into this video. It truly makes a difference.

Nice video very good information. I plan on updating to Garmin either 106SV or 126SV. Still on the fence for LVS32 or LVS34. Your video is based on unit 106SV with LVS34 is awesome. My question is this would buy the 106sv and go to the LVS34 or buy 126SV and buy LVS32? Also how is the screen view with polarized glasses and in the sun. That is an issue with me on my current units. Thanks excellent work.....

I’ve been having the 32 since it came out and I’ve gotten quite good with it. I’d say the 34 is better but it’s not super drastic. It’s probably 25-30% better tops. I’ve gotten very similar images with my 32 and a shitty display lol

How are you mounting your transducer to the pole? Is it with a bracket that came with your garmin or did you have to buy it separately?

Both. I use a 0° offset mount sold separately.

H E L P! You've done some great video's from catching crappie/fish and finding them, using a fish finder. I need to semi future proof my setup to be, because I'm retired and don't want to upgrade for a long time if possible. My dilemma is I'm new (read never fished freshwater that much) but have decided to get proficient at it. Last Spring I bought the Garmin 93SV with the GT54 transducer. The GT56 was around $500 more but now can be had for $374. Should I upgrade the trans and get another 93SV(Ultra 106 is twice as much) and get the PanOptix LVS34 or splurge for a decent trolling motor with I-Pilot, which doesn't communicate with the Garmin units or a ProNav add-on? Anybody have any suggestions? Congrats on your marriage!

You stated you do not use AHRS but it shows "On" in the video. What is it and what's it for?
@KansasAnglingExperience
2 жыл бұрын
Calibrating the compass and AHRS are two different things, I misspoke on that part. AHRS should be on or on auto. The Attitude Heading Reference System (AHRS) stabilizes Panoptix sonar views on the chartplotter screen even under rough conditions. AHRS also accounts for the transducer's orientation to show the correct sonar view, such as Forward, Down, or Perspective mode.

The problem I have had with it is that in forward mode, the bottom stops at about 50-80 feet usually. My buddy has a Lvs32 and he can see farther than I can. Just wondering what I am doing wrong.

Two years later this motor is going strong kzread.infoUgkxBZWgzfpS2Jj7JqIHyaSZjyVHNUgCKCBf Just uploaded a video of it after 2 years. We use it probably a dozen days each year on our small raft.-original review- We got this motor the other day and tested it out. I don't have anything to compare it to, but it seems good to me. It has all the features advertised - the motor housing is metal. We will see how it performs longer term and I will revise this review if needed. Some initial observations:- Good thrust, moves our boat around really well- It comes with a circuit breaker but no switch - so there's no way to kill the motor other than yanking the connection off the battery. I installed an inline switch.- The mount bracket is plastic and I worry it might break- There are a number of plastic parts that I worry about, but the most important ones are metal or some kind of composite
