Thanks for the pic! Odd that they don't mention it anywhere on the product page or in the manual. Hopefully mine arrives today.
Flasher is old school, much better with the graph and RTS bar on the side. Having chart history you can adjust the jigging pattern and speed, see how aggressive the fish is. The flasher does not show you that.

The pic on the box is different then then unit we have ordered.. As well your unit says DV and ours says CV...DV And CV are the same they just don't call it DV anymore... The unit we ordered show's 4 buttons down both sides, looks like yours only shows 3.... Did you get that unit from the Canadian tire flash sale??? Either way I don't care as I'm a graph guy.. lol... Mine says it will be here today...

Mine just came, can confirm is CV box not DV. Will open up later and check if flasher option still their for curiosity sake.
Happy birthday...🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks
Powered up and confirmed that flasher option is still there despite no mention of it in the manual.
Even the 45DV from what I could see had no mention of the feature as well.. The newer units now are called CV/clear view And the past units DV/ down view.. Exact same thing.. Enjoy the purchase... I'm sitting and watching out the window like when I used to watch for Santa..lol

This unit is a "Clearance" item, so available until the 27 remaining units are sold. I checked the price at RadioWorld (on sale = $399.99) and Trombley's weekend sale is the same $399. The unit was reviewed on a "best sonar units"-site and ranked as "best bang for the buck"-unit.

Mine arrived... Got a massive headache now after reading almost everything.. Can't believe the size of the transducer but I guess there is a reason for it.. It's got to be 3x the size of the old transducer. Looks like quite the job ahead of me installing this sucker with probably a lot more headaches as well. Lol Hopefully it will be easier then I think it will be lol. Im going to get a quote to see what it will cost me to have someone install it..
