    I like hearing this on the 93sv since this is what I have. I was thinking I might be missing out on some stuff without a nicer unit. Nice slab Charman03

    Check out Mark at Cornfield fishing gear to upgrade those mounts. You’ll thank me later. I promise you’ll be greatly impressed.

    I absolutely love the cornfield crappie double mount !
    very easy to fold down for the move and puts the units up high where they are real easy to see and are solid as a rock!
    good thing about it Ed you got a good deal on it and if you were to decide to get rid of it you should be able to recoupe what you have in it ! The side image is great on those units !

That's partly why I selected the 10" model instead of the 12" I thought the 9" looked better up higher, so the ten would be just fine. And to try to mount a heavier 12" that high would require major hardware.

    So a 10" it was, and I would also be upgrading to HD, as the 93sv was not an hd model. cool

    This setup is not high enough. I was able to use a 15" arm on a 1" ram mount for the 93sv, but believe it or not, the 106sv weighs seemingly more than twice what the 93sv weighed. So I used a 6" arm on a 1.5 inch ball as you can see. I still have to figure out how to raise it at least a little more IMHO.

    Anyway, my first impression is that there was absolutely nothing wrong with the 9" screen. Spending a grand on a ten inch was kinda a waste IMO. I'm OK with it only because I now can do side imaging in HD, and the 106SV easily networks with my old unit. But my advise to anyone out there that feels the need to get a larger screen just for livescoping, take the time to raise it closer to your line of sight first. You might not need to spend the money. Just My Opinion, and who knows, with time it might change.

    Here's a neat video of manatee on livescope, on side image, and for real...

    Very cool!!!
