I have been considering this unit too. It seems to be a decent unit.
OK .. I remembered having discussed the DSI cone angle question, and Kosmo showed this :

I also found this :

Now ... if someone can figure out how wide a 6deg cone angle slice is, vs x feet of water depth .... or knows the equation to figure it out (TOM Thumbs Up ) ... then we're on our way to having a mental picture of the area of coverage of this DSI unit, given what depth of water we're sitting in.
... cp :cool:
I thought Jason said this had a 3 degree slice front to aft...??
Rickie
Maybe he was saying 3deg to each side of center ?? I'm still wondering why Jason hasn't chimed in on this thread :donoQuote:
