TY Shabbir I have searched for answer videos and this one is dead on! Thank You so much! I will be using mine for lake diving and finding the dive sites faster more of my time in the water. Thanks again. The 4 thumbs down people must have other motives here because for a beginner to finders this video is excellent and answered my networking that I want to do ie: wifi with other devices...so all divers can log in and see what I see with out everyone hovering over the hds7.
Shabbir, this video was the most helpful that I have viewed yet. Yes you get a LIKE from me. If they had " REALLY LIKE " it you would have got that also.
Thanks for the detailed review. One question: At 5:37 you say it is effectively 240 ft to the side of the boat. I thought this was the maximum. The screen shot you have is autozoomed to 30 feet to either side of the boat.
Hi! Could it drive an autopilot? You set arrival point and Lowrence HDS7 gen2 drives the autopilot to the destination? If yes, does it works with all autopilots? Regards
I was wondering about the satellite radio feature that can be added. I heard that a person could down load weather maps via satellite radio . Can they be overlaid on the chart map on the plotter on the HD7 2gen
Great Instructional Video! I have the hds7 gen2 touch and would love to have structure scan. Is it worth purchasing the module or just purchase the gen3? If I were to purchase the gen3 and installed the gen2 on thew bow could I connect it and have structure scan on both? Thanks
Привет друг. Скажи на современном рынке hds7 gen2 всё еще актуален? Чтоит купить бывший в употреблении, или лучше купить не дорогой но современный прибор?
i bought a second hand boat and it says when i go to structure its not available so how do i know if have the module that i need and if i dint have the structure scan how much it would cost me ?? plz help and thanx for this vid its great and keep in mind my boat is 40 ft oryx with 3 outboards so its in the sea i only get it out once a year for anti foiling cuz i dont have trailer so how do i know and what do you recommend me to do i have hds10 gen2
Hello Fahad, I'm sorry for the late reply - for Structure, you'd need the extra StructureScan LSS-2 module - it's a big black box with a separate transducer. It retails for about $600 - you can see it here: www.fishfindersource.com/lowrance-hds-multi-function-displays/lss-2-structurescan-hd-module-w-transducer/
Hey Shabbir, I appreciate the video. I'm purchasing a new boat and want a GOOD fish finder. Have you considered ranking fish finders based on cost? Meaning, which is the best finder for $500.. The best for $700 etc. I really want the most for my money in the $500 range.. Do you have any suggestions?
Hey Guy, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I've actually got an article on my website about fish finders sorted by price range: www.fishfindersource.com/which-is-the-best-fish-finder-for-the-money/ There's also a few buying guides at this page: www.fishfindersource.com/fish-finder-source/ I hope that helps! Let me know if there is anything else I can do. Thanks!
Almost 10 years later and this is still a fantastic review

great review! subscribed!
You thoroughly explained this unit great job. I agree I vote really - really like.
He explained a bunch of garbage...didn't truly know the unit...just Wikipedia knowledge
i tought this was a gen 1? i have a hds 7 gen 2 and it doesnt look like that. maybe because it is a touch?
Are the HDS 7 compatible with the HDS 7 GEN 2 ?
How does all this work on a HDS 7 Gen 1.??????
Great Instructional Video! I have the hds7 gen2 touch and would love to have structure scan. Is it worth purchasing the module or
just purchase the gen3? If I were to purchase the gen3 and installed the gen2 on thew bow could I connect it and have structure scan on both? Thanks

How do you share one map chip for all 3 hds gen 2 units?

Lowrance 5 HDS is good and around the $500 range.
Nice video,,but try not to say " AHH" so much, it makes you sound un-confident, unprofessional...and annoying to the ear.
