I like my echo I just have trouble seeing the screen in downvu only and that in bright sunlight only.

I also have the 73sv and like it. thought about getting a smaller unit for the bow but just built a swivel mount for it for now.
the clear vue and side vue screens are tough in bright sun to see.
I had the same problem with mine that TimY had. The Striker 7 shows plenty of detail or at least mine did, they just don't have the target separation for separating the fish from structure the echomap 73 series has. Garmin sent me another transducer also and it didn't change a thing so I replaced mine with a 73CV which shows good detail and good target separation. After looking at the specs on the Striker and the Echomap the Echomap is running more power than the Striker unit.

I have since got 2 new transducers. Unit works great in 10 fow and less. Just not enough power from the unit. Echomap 73 CV has more power. As the old saying goes, you get what you pay for.
