Wanaflatsfish Posted March 25 Report Share Posted March 25 Anyone running this on their boats.... I have it on my SIMRAD but, with the FMT, it seems to not work well ? Maybe it's something I need to call tech support? And, I was curious how it runs better on the GARMIN...it's not cheap - $800 +, but, seems to be a better system?

Bamaskeet Posted March 25 Report Share Posted March 25 I have Sirius weather on my Simrad. It works great, I have the puck mounted on top of my console. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What Puck are you using...is it the same as the Lowrance puck...I had the Lowrance Elite 12 Inch and I did not like how it displayed.....and I have the Sirus system....haven't been on the water lately due to other activities so, can you advise how to set it up? or is there a Youtube on it? I have a SIMRAD EVO 3 DC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bamaskeet Posted March 26 Report Share Posted March 26 I use the Sirius WM-4 puck. You can see it to the left of my compass. Once you install it, you need to call Sirius to send your system a wake-up call. Before you call Sirius, the boat has to be out in the open to receive the satellite signal.

Bamaskeet Posted March 26 Report Share Posted March 26 You need to go into the Simrad software and turn on the weather program before you call Sirius. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
