It is cool in that you can change color schemes and gain etc, but the range reduction on sv was very disappointing for me. They explained the process to me but the bottom line is that the display you see on your unit while recording sv is NOT what you will be able to display at home.
    I haven't recorded any SV yet. If we can get out Saturday I'll try to find something interesting to post and compare against a screen shot.

    Unless something has changed, the depth at which you are recording also influences the displayed field of range. I had mine set at 50' per side I think. If you begin in less than 10 fow you will get a certain range along with your water column (not 50 f). If you start in 20-25 fow you will get the water column and very little per side. I'm not even sure that we get 50' for eg from the ducer to end of range. Cannot remember. That's how I best recall. Hoping that they have improved that piece. You will be able to tell us soon.

    I downloaded homeport and used it today. Really do like this feature. Love the fact that you can get the coordinates if you see something you like when viewing the recorded sonar.

    I need to record some more sonar and play with homeport. Can you save chunks of sonar, then put it on a flash drive, or send it to someone?
    I have ALOT of learning to do!!

    I have a 32 gb sd card and recorded like 10 min of sonar. Not sure if you can send it to someone though.

    Hoping that someone gets out and records sv with it and plays it back on Homeport. Would like to hear of your results after my experiences. I haven't tried it again since. It is way cool in some of the things you can do with it, my disappointment was as i have elaborated. Fingers crossed that it is better now.

    I was able to record a little sv over the weekend. Just haven't had time to review it. I'll try to get something posted tomorrow.

    There was something wrong with HomePort or my sv recording this morning. I'll try again this weekend.

    Default Finally, some SV

    We did get out this morning and here's the most interesting thing I recorded on SV, along with what I think is a corresponding screenshot. I know I went over those craters several times, but I only took two screenshots of them. We did catch some nice crappies in here running about a 1.25 pound average.

    Now I see what others said about the SV recordings. I was running about a 70' range, but the recording shows about a 25' range. Recording playback has been fine, for me, in 2D and DV, but this is the first time I've really looked at a SV recording in HomePort. It's like a slight change in angle
