Took us a while to figure out the setting but once we did, SO COOL. The bottom tracking works great after you figure out the correct setting. We have 2 Digi 10 and one Scotty 1106. I already had 2 Scottys so we build a Cannon/Scotty conversion plate to try 3 DR at the same time. 2 DR had 15 lb balls the center Cannon DR had 10 lb. The Scotty is easy to use and preformed as expected. The Digi 10 had a 2-3 hour learning curve. Once past the learning curve, "We need a 3rd Digi 10". We were laughing at how easy tracking 5 feet off the bottom was.
Now the Con side...
We kept getting birds nest in the cable on the Digi 10 after bringing the DR up to check the gear. Then lowering the ball back down would clear most of the birds nest but not all. Lowering the gear down sounded horrible as the cable tried to untangle itself. One of the nest put a cink in the cable. Strictly a guess, looks like the cable is stacking on itself to one side, then sliding off, creating a bunch of slack down in the spool. Once there was slack, the cable turned into a mess. This mess also threw off the cable depth when lowering the ball back down each time. The size of the nest would determine how far from accurate the DR ball depth was. At one point we had to find deep water to clear the birds nest and start over. End of day we had to clear the nest again. I wondered if I had set up the Digi 10 correctly but remember it was assemble in the box. All I did was connect the terminating end.
Any recommendations? Thanks

Lost a third that was my fault. The third was hooked really well too.
