Comments about Lowrance LCX-28C 200 kHz Sonar/GPS+WAAS Chartplotter Combo:

The unit is great, but the support for Vista is none. Lowerance blames MicroSoft and MicroSoft says it is a Lowerance problem. Would I buy again? Only after Lowerance fixes the problem with the emulation software and other problems between the computer and and unit. The conture lines is not as good as the ones found on another manufacturers Fishing Hot Spots.

Comments about Lowrance LCX-28C 200 kHz Sonar/GPS+WAAS Chartplotter Combo:

I recently installed The Lowrance LCX-280 in my 25 foot center console and absolutely love the product. Great resolution, intuitive and "push button friendly" at a high rate of speed. I have had many boats and many brands of electronics over the years and this is the best quality/value product I have used.
