[jbird68]

Just picked this unit up for $649. No tax and free shipping. Can't wait to get it.

Thats an awesome unit !
Unbeatable price.

I was saving up for a Lowrance Elite-7ti. But then someone recommended this to me. Only thing it doesn't have is the touch screen. But that wasn't a deal breaker, especially at this price. What I really want to do is map my home lake with the Quickdraw contour mapping software. Oh, and the Side Vu will be awesome, too.

Cabelas and West Marine have that unit for $499.99 with Lake Vu. Prices change all the time, but if your happy with your unit enjoy.

Cabela's and West Marine $499.99 is for a non CHIRP unit
$649 for an EchoMap CHIRP 73sv is a very good deal IMO

I tried to price match BPS and Cabela's. But Cabela's said only if I bought it at the store and had receipt. They also had the non chirp units for $499. Chirp units were $749. So I think I did good. Also would have had to pay another $40-$50 in state tax.

yes you did good, my error, i compared all but didnt realize yours was chirp unit. Let me ask this, is chirp that good and worth the $250 more or higher

I bought the non-chirp unit and now wish I had bought the chirp unit there is just so much better target seperation on the chirp units.

I don't know. But I might as well get the latest tech. My Lowrance elite-5 does not have chirp and it works good. But it also doesn't have Downs can Imaging... Just sonar and GPS. The Lowrance is on the bow and connected to the transducer on my ipilot. The Garmin will go on the console. It won't work with the transducer built in to the trolling motor. Too old.
