    Default best depthfinder under $700

    I am going to be replacing my humminbird 565 on the front of my boat that will have the transducer on the trolling motor. I have a humminbird 1197c at the console. I am partial to humminbird but would consider others if they are better units for the same money.

    597 is a good unit but if you have a digital tm you will probably get interference. Be for warned.

    Is the interference issue only with the 597? Is it with all Humminbirds, or is it with all sonars on digital TM's? And which TM's are considered digital? Is there a fix?

    Interference can be a monster that generates from any of several different places..commonly it's attributed to the TM...but not always...

    It can be the boat's wiring...another DF....other electronics...etc

    Each boat's setup is different which makes each interference possibility different..

    Kosmo has posted dozens of images that show no interference on his 597...

    http://www.crappie.com/crappie/fishi...nce-ss-di.html

    I would suggest buying the DF that you find will best fit your fishing needs...install ...and see what happens...

    Every DF purchaser doesn't experience interference issues...we just mostly hear about the ones that do on the forums...because they are looking for help...

    The lucky ones (that don't have interference issues) are too busy fishing to post about problems they're not experiencing....
