IGC 2016 - snart startskudd

Insight Genesis Challenge har du kanskje lest om her før?

Nå braker det snart løs med en ny sesong i denne konkurransen som dreier seg om å logge så mye som mulig, og laste det opp til kartjenesten Insight Genesis.

Som tidligere år er konkurransen delt i månedsdeler, og vil gå fra juni til september. Hver måned blir det et race om å logge størst mulig areal, og premiene er over middels fine.

1. plassen hver måned er en HDS Gen 3 i 7".
Lowrance HDS Gen 3 i 7"
2. plassen er en Elite 7 Ti.
Lowrance Elite 7 Ti


Du melder deg på via nettsiden til IG Challenge, påmeldingen åpner om noen dager. Det er viktig at du laster opp til IG via linken du får etter registrering, laster du opp direkte vil ikke dine logger telles med.

Det er verdt å merke seg at også norske brukere kan logge i saltvann og laste opp, dette vil telle med i konkurransen selv om dataene ikke blir synlige i IG. Du kan delta med alle Lowrance eller Simrad som kan logge data, altså også eldre modeller enn de som er kompatible med kartene fra IG. Så har du en HDS Gen 1 kan du fortsatt delta, og kanskje ende opp med en oppgradering av båtens elektronikk?

Et lite tips fra meg; spar opp logger og last opp i en bestemt måned. Hvis du feks bestemmer deg for å laste opp i august, kan du laste opp logger fra tidenes morgen og frem til august. Den eneste begrensingen er at loggene ikke kan ha vært brukt i IGC tidligere. Hvis du derimot laster opp litt hver måned, er sannsynligheten for å vinne en måned svært liten.

The perfect settings for Lowrance? A guide on how to set up your 2D-sonar part I.

Perhaps the most repeated question in Facebookgroups and forums regarding marine electronics: "What are the best settings?" The bad news is that there is no uniform answer to that. The good news is that you can adjust settings according to conditions if you have a little knowledge as to what settings you should tweak and why. Here is part 1 of our guide to get the most out of your unit in regards to settings.

What is the difference between HDS Carbon and HDS Live?

Here we go again, a new generation of the Lowrance HDS. And with that Facebook and the different forums are flooded with questions referring to the difference between the new and the old. So what is the difference between Lowrance HDS Live and HDS Carbon?

Lowrance Elite Ti2 versus Elite FS

  When Lowrance launches a new mid-range unit, it is a big deal. Forums and Facebookgroups light up with questions on the new stuff, differences towards the old stuff and questions on compatibility. As usual, we in Team Colibri will try our best to sort that out, both on a technical level and with a more practical in-your-boat approach.

Lowrance Hook 2 versus Lowrance Hook Reveal

You have to hand it to Lowrance when it comes to the name of their new entry-level line of sonar and chartplotters. We all want to hook up, and what better way to do that then by having our marine electronics reveal to us where the fish are?

What is the difference between Lowrance HDS Live and Elite Ti2?

Lowrance as a brand of marine electronis is well known to all anglers, but the differences within their range of different models seem to cause quite a few questions out there. Here we will try to outline the difference between Lowrance HDS Live (top end) and Lowrance Elite Ti2 (middle range). Lowrance Elite Ti2 vs Lowrance HDS Live (photo; lowrance.com) As usual, we will start with the tech and then try to translate those technical aspects to practical differences while out on the water. Hardware - housing, screen and connections. The screen and housing on Elite Ti2 is the same as on the previous Elite Ti, and again more or less the same as on HDS Gen 2 Touch. (The memorycard-door and mounting-bracket is different from HDS Gen 2 Touch.) This is by no means new stuff, and compared to the more advanced housing and screen on HDS Live, Elite Ti2 is starting to show its relative age. However, with that in mind it is worth noting that when looking at the competition, several of ...
