    Default Happy ending to a bad start


    Name: IMG_1849.jpg Views: 523 Size: 84.3 KBNothing worse than turning on your sonar units an 10 years worth of waypoints are gone , I lucked out and had had backed the unit up a while back and was able to reload most of them back on the unit.. went back today and ended up catching a mess

    All ways a good idea to save a backup copy of way points on SD cards as these sonar units are much like computers.
    Be safe and good luck fishing

    Thanks for a good post that shows an example of the importance of backing up data.

    Thanks for posting this subject. I just put a card in my Helix, now I need to figure out how to put my way points on the card. I'd cry if I lost my waypoints.
