[left][size 4]FasTrack [/size][size 3](again from the Lowrance Manual)[/size][/left][size 2] [left]This feature automatically converts all echoes to short horizontal lines on the display's far right side. The graph on the rest of the screen continues to operate normally. FasTrack gives you a rapid update of conditions directly under the boat. This makes it useful for ice fishing, or when you're fishing at anchor. When the boat is not moving, fish signals are long, drawn out lines on a normal chart display. FasTrack converts the graph to a vertical bar graph that, with practice, makes a useful addition to fishing at a stationary location.[/left] [left][font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]This allows you to run at max chart speed and still distinquish the fish. Also it shuts down all essential functions so that the processor can use all it's power on the graphics. Also the new Lowrance have a "Flasher" mode that even gives you faster feedback. I'm sure that it's not as fast as a real flasher but I guess it tries. As you can tell I'm a fan of Lowrance. OK, I'll shut up now...[/size][/font][/left][/size]
