Thread: Humminbird software update...

Ran across this on another forum this evening...may be of interest to those of you who run Humminbirds. New Humminbird enhanced Sonar Software - Texas Fishing Forum

That is nice. Looks to me they worried more about their competition (Lowrance) and bass fishermen than they are us lowly crappie guys with gps response issues.

Just checked my account at humminbird no new software updates. ???

hays47,

The new software should be release to the public in 1 to 2 weeks.

I hope this resolves the problem. I personally am happy with every other aspect of my birds. Well I do have some interference issues with my 797. I have seen some posts about a kit you can get but have been afraid to do anything that might make it worse than it is already if I don't know what I'm do'n when I install it. Antbody have any luck with this "kit"?

Does this firmware release fix the screen refresh problem?

Cane I bet U $5.00 this HB update DOES NOT DO A THING FOR SLOW GPS go BACK & read Jody's responce-----all he says is that it will be avail in 1 to 2 weeks-- I tell U the only way to read a HB trained person is what they DON'T SAY!!!!! Never said a thing about GPS, see its still a BIG SECRET--- WHAT THEY ALSO DON'T TELL U IS THAT THE NEW lOWRANCE 16 CHANNEL RECEIVER SYSTEM REFRESH 5X TIMES A SECOND.
