Me too!
Post pics please
Trophy King II
I have since added another 93SV that is linked together for mapping and other sonar uses like SI/DI. I had bought a new Lowrance TI2 that gave me nothing but trouble along with Lowrance Customer service! The carpeted box has the livescope black box located inside along with excess cables. I just unplug power cable, unclamp transducer tiller and move to back of boat or to another boat. sorry, I cannot figure how to rotate pics. they are right on my computer.

what sizes of pvc did you use to make the collar and main rod?
Trophy King II
1 inch PVC and the collar is 1.25 inch black steel pipe. Had to make a bushing to get it tighter and I have thumb screw to tighten to apply desired resistance to turn and hold it in place. I am going to rebuild to be able to rotate it and kick it up out of water while going place to place. I have it now where you have to pull it out of the receiver that is welded to big C Clamp and rotate it. I actually remove it and lay it in boat while trailering for security. Too much money dangling on side of boat going down road.

Why would the 93sv work,but not my 94sv when i paid for more for the 94sv? I'm so pissed..

94sv plus is compatible with Livescope i believe. Think Kevin Rogers said that's what he bought a few months ago and used if i remember right after seeing his youtube video. Only difference between the 93sv and 94sv is that the 93sv is inland maps and 94sv is costal maps i believe. I could be totally wrong and more things are different though. Has to be a plus though the Chirp is not compatible.

The 94SV is compatible if it's an Echomap Plus model. If it's not a Plus, it won't work with Livescope.

I installed the 93 Plus SV last March with the original Panoptix PS22 transducer. I changed to livescope last June. I originally mounted the PS22 on my Ulterra. (What a pain to accomplish)) I did not really care for it on my trolling motor. When I changed to the Livescope I used the Fishing Specialties mount and like it just fine. I used their adjustable down rod and used the trolling motor shaft mounts to mount the livescope transducer. I did not run the wire up the tube for a couple of different reasons. I wanted to determine the best length for the adjustable rod so I just taped the wire to the outside in a couple of spots and I wanted to use a different handle on top. It works very well for me. Also when I first made the purchase last year they had no mounts for Livescope. I may have been the first to mount one on his system. I really like it mounted on the shaft, it is very easy to just rotate the transducer to switch between forward and downview. Very simple in and out and operation.
I am adding a second 93SV with Livescope to the bow, one for each side, My partner will have use of one also. The beams are VERY narrow and I don't anticipate any interference nor did Garmin when I asked them about two units on the bow. I ordered another Fishing Specialties set up for my second unit also. I will use the the supplied trolling motor shaft mounts to mount the second unit also.
PS , If there does end up being interference between the two units I will have a new system for sale
