    I have the uhd with gt54, a buddy told me I can have his non uhd with 52 ducer. Can I hook up the 54 to the non uhd model or will it only run the gt52

    I guess I meant to ask, can I network both graphs together to run off the gt54

    Not an answer to your question, but I just picked up the 93SV UHD at cabela’s last week for 699. Unbelieveable deal IMO. If my Hbird doesn’t sell then it’ll just go up on the bow, but this thing looks amazing.

    The 54 should run on the non-UHD unit, which I assume is the plus version. Can’t help you on the networking question.

    My understanding is that echo maps network together with other echo maps and the same for GPSmaps network together, but a echomap won’t network with a GPSmap. I learned that the hardway. I can’t see why the UHD wouldn’t show the 54 ducer image on the non-UHD. There are always exceptions. Like the new livescope transducer does not work with my 7410xsv GPSmap but does with my newer 1042xsv unit. I don’t know if it would work on the 7410 if I were to try to network it with the 1042xsv.

    Thank you guys. Appreciate the input.
    I haven’t looked in to the GPSmaps units. What are the benefits of those ?

    GPS map units are non touch screen and some like this for livescope. They will not network with echo maps or ultras. It’s way easier and faster to use the dials for some then the touchscreen.

    Seen as a very cost effective 10 or 12 inch units for just running livescope as stand alone and not having to network.

    Garmins website does a good job explaining what each model can do in its line up.

    Nice feature of the gpsmap series is the screen recording feature
