    Turn off DI Sharpness in the DI Enhance menu ...

    It's a known bug that hasn't been fixed yet ...

    (I have read that a faster Chart Speed than 3 also works ...but this may be faster scroll than what you like) ...

    I have an 899 and that issue drove me nuts. I am in a kayak so scroll speed of 2 or 3 is great for me but with sharpness on I got same as you. After installing Version 7.460 that issue is gone for me. That was the first thing I checked after doing upgrade.


    Regards

    Ok I will bite. I turned mine off Saturday when Rickie said it would kill the lines. How does the sharpness in the DI mode help?

    It will back shadow fish...makes it easier to see them in di and si. Had my unit out today and really worked great. Tried out jigging mode today...pretty impressed with that.

    Good question Rickie but I don’t see it listed in the software change notes for the 7.460 or any newer software versions.

    Our 899 done the same thing, but only on chart speed 2. Updated it to 7.460 and problem solved.
