Are you still using them? Is Marcum still making them? Just curious. Heck, I'm running a Lowrance X91 so I can't talk about staying up with new technology for ice fishing, but I'll be dang if I'm going to spend $400+ for a flasher I only use about 10 times/year. I get good results with my old Lowrance LCD unit, so until it dies, I'll be using it.
I am currently using the showdown 5.6 that I bought it used 3 years ago. I still like it even though it is not as fancy as other sonars. I like the simplicity of it. All I need it to tell me what depth the fish are at and the rest is up to me to get the fish to bite which is not a problem for me.
