Hi. I thought I would start a thread for the Simrad NSS evo2. I'm sure I'm not the only owner.

Perhaps others can start dedicated threads for their units. And perhaps a new sub section in the boating forum?

Even though I'm subscribed on the simrad site I missed that there has been some significant software updates in the last couple of months.

Most notably in my opinion is the ability to run CHIRP and DI /SI at the same time :)

Here's the changelog
