Got everything mounted & cables routed & took it out on the river yesterday. Hadn't made any adjustments to any of the settings & was picking up channel markers 1/2 mile out. It is a Si-Tex colormax wide display & a MDS-10-5 antenna both bought used. I was originally going to use my Standard Horizon cp300i display but had a problem getting it to recognize the radar, the Si-Tex display came up for sale on THT forum so I decided to go with 2 displays, 1 dedicated to radar. With more practice during daylight hours & some fine tuning I think it'll be a great addition for safe cruising on the rivers.
Channel markers ahead & pontoon boat behind me.
