My Lowrance sounder/plotter has an SDC 38Mb card for the east coast of britain fitted, but I can't zoom in to any detail of the coast line. What do I need to get a zoomed in map of the north east coastline, showing areas in greater detail. Do I buy another SDC card, if so, how much should I be paying, and where from, or can they be down loaded from the computer onto my existing card. Never was very technical

Is it definately a chart cartridge and not just a user data cartrdge so what you are seeing is just the base map?
if you go into the system settings, and chart details, if I remember rightly with lowrance there's an option to set the amount of chart detail that is displayed
set that to the maximum and then have another lookʎɐqǝ uo pɹɐoqʎǝʞ ɐ ʎnq ı ǝɯıʇ ʇsɐן ǝɥʇ sı sıɥʇ.

Hi Mark, When you say cartridge, do you mean the phone type memory card that's changeable. The unit I have is probably 10 years old and is now discontinued. It has an mmc card and an sdc card which has east coast of Britain written on it. When I zoom out, and the usa coast appears, I can zoom right in to very detailed usa coastline. I will connect the unit up tomorrow and try getting into the system and try and re-set it. Thanks for your help.P.B. Cod 30lb-11ozs Balcary.

sounds as if you have a usa map arthur ... more so if the name is "Written" on, it may be in error .... is it maybe "east coast" of N.America need a big tank of fuel to get you there .....
