Thanks...I like the part were Tom misspelled "hummingbird ".Also,this reminds me of a fishing show from awhile back.Tom Mann,brought one of those big Brown paper bags,from the grocery store that had his fishing stuff in it."look what everybody needs now to fish"

There is NO "G" in Humminbird

I can remember back in the late 70's I had a Super60 the flashing light went out. Sent it back and I think back then the flat fee for repairs was 18.00. Boxed it up sent it out. Got it back in about a week. The only thing I got back that I sent down was the outside shell. They had removed old internals which were mounted to back of screen and installed a complete new screen and internals and a brand new transducer.
