WASS forces unit to unlock from sats.

[BocaBoca]

I've got a lowrance lms 525c (external ant.) It locks on to sats. within a minute without the WASS. When I tick the WASS box it immediately says module not responding, un tick the box and it locks on.

Is this an antenna problem or have others had similar issue with another solution?

Thanks for your suggestions.

I have the same problem. WASS will go in and out all the time.

I have the LCX-27 and it also does the same thing. I was told by Lowrance that if you check that box the unit will only work if you are in range of WASS Satellites ONLY. They said the unit will lock on WASS without it checked. I have seen it lock on WASS even without the box checked

Thanks for the replies. Nice to know I am not alone in this sitz. I have been very disappointed with Lowrance service and help. But thanks again for the input.
