Searching For Software Update For Lowrance Lcx-15 Mt

[Hemi6677]

Recently purchased a boat. The gentleman I bought the boat off of took his SD cards out of the fish finder which is an Lowrance LCX-15 MT, and then preceeded to reset all options on the unit. So this has left me with a nice fish finder but no maps what-so-ever. So after visiting the Lowrance site I have found out that I can not use their lastest update which is version 3.7. Older units like mine require version 3.6 which is not available on the site anymore.

 

So my question is, does anyone have version 3.6 laying around? I would be willing to purchase a copy of it if so.

 

Also, once I have this updated, I still need to load maps into the unit. I've read that I will need to use Navionics Classic map packs. I'm new to these units so I'm not sure what all is available. I was hoping to get through the summer with this system and then upgrade to a new unit for next year.

 

Any help is appreciated.

Edd, you are awesome. Going to download this today and hopefully it works. I searched and searched all over the internet and never stumbled across that.

 

THANKS!

Version 3.7 is the current version but that is for a newer version of the LCX-15. They had came out with a newer version which will take the 3.7 version. Mine is the older version and it will not recognize the 3.7. You have to have the 3.6 version they say.

Ah OK.

 

That dinosaur has seen better days. Even a new cheap unit with modern technology would be better.

Definitely agree with you there. But, with the purchase of the boat, taxes, supplies, etc.. that didn't leave much left over for new fishfinders. But there will be new Lowrance units on it next year.
