Does anybody know how to show the current speed (sog) on the sonar screen on Lowrance HDS Touch units? I can only get depth and water temp.

This is how you get to the menu to change data. I don't have a touch screen so i am not 100% sure the menues are the same.

Data Overlay
Allows you to overlay information on the active page. You can
turn on/off viewing of overlay data and edit/add overlay data by
accessing the hidden system menu from any page screen.
1. Access the hidden system menu
2. Tap Edit overlay and tap Add
3. Select a data category
4. Tap the data you want to overlay
5. Drag the overlay data into the desired position on the page
6. Tap Save
Customizing
