    Default HB Question


    My brother is having trouble with a HB 565 mounted to the transducer not showing fish when everyone else's finder around him does. He has it mounted on MinnKota Maxxum TM. When the propeller is not turning, it shows fish and works fine. When it is, the screen goes to showing black lines and NO FISH... Do we need to make adjustments to the settings? He needs help with this issue. Thanks

    Sounds like interference from the TM.

    I called HB about the same problem on Monday and had the free kit on Wednesday. The kit has alot of good components and covers every angle that the interference could be coming from(that I can think of).
