One thing that hear quite often is the fact that it’s kind of difficult to get a very precise slow trolling speed on the GPS; numbers seems to go up and down and not stable. The reason is the usage of Digital numbers instead of Analogic numbers.
Hoping you’re machine can do the changes that I will show you. I have on my computer the Emulator for the LCX 19C that I download from the Lowrance website. I know that many Lowrance model offer the same capabilities and surely other manufacturers, just a menu learning probably.
There is a way to get the Analogic gauge:
Once the emulator is open, choose the button: Page and then full map (just to make things easier). Then push Menu and choose: Overlay data and Enter:
In the window that just open, press Enter on: Press enter to add in the other window, click on GPS data and check the Ground speed box and push the button Exit, that brings you back in the previous window and you should have: Ground speed Small. Press Enter. That takes you in the window name: Data information ground speed
You click on Ground speed small, that brings you in the window name: Data information ground speed, bring the cursor on: Overlay Style and choose: Analog and on the right choose Analog Setup and pick: make transparent
Once done it should look like this:
Hope it can help you catch more fish
