Yes the 798ci HD Si unit will have the Down Imaging software in it and can show all three types of sonar at the same time.
The 898 would be a little easier to read though due to its larger display.

greg, i just bought and installed the 898 c si on my bought. i have read the forums, watch some videos ordered the manual, and registered the unit.
i still am wondering for the di part of the finder what i should set my beam on, if i am on sidescan, i understand that 200/85 is the best is that correct?
i still am trying to understand "quad beam" is that is a setting or what they call the transducer?
the high definition beam etc etc. could you please explain those different beam options and what they relate to in terms of fishing. i would appreciate it. i live on the harris chain of lakes in fl where the bassmasters tournament is going on this weekend./ i see several of the humminbird going by my boat dock. are you in town by anychance--Tavares, fl that is?
going to order a SI today...humminbird gives you both !
greg, we have the high definition setting, quad beam, vs 200/83 or just 200 83 or 800 please explain the differences on side imaging and di on these different settings
I'm a little confused here crappiegirl...Quote:

The 200 and the 83 are for the 2d sonar...

Thank's for being there for us Shawn. I get to go fishing because of your service to our great nation. THANK YOU from Grumpy.
you defiantly will get a better di with the hummingbird 500 series di units or the788 di unit because of the dedicated di element.that being said, i still beleive that as long as you can afford it,the si units are far better for you.they have di to good luck.please ask if you have more questionsQuote:
