Messing around with my 7981 SI

Here is a couple of shots that I took yesterday while fishing Reelfoot Lake with my dad. I love this thing but I still have a lot to learn on the 798 SI

Today's electronics are amazing!

Great pix...

Here's a tip for you anytime you are using SI...

I keep the "SI Enhance" window up on my screen anytime I am viewing SI...

This gives the abilitiy to change "SI Sensitivity" setting without (opaquing out) any other split view that I have up at the time...

I use the SI Sensitivity setting as a "brightness" control for my SI image (as different water conditions/bottom compositions will make the image brighter/darker..)

SI Sensitivity up will brighten the image...
SI Sensitivity down will darken the image...

I frequently change this SI Sensitivity setting as my SI image changes in brightness...

Here is a screenshot of the "SI Enhance" window overlayed onto the SI image... I had to adjust the sensitivity to 19 to get this mud bottom to reflect enough sonar echo to get an acceptable image...

Nice pictures. Thanks for sharing! Rickie is full of good ideas. When I un-winterize the boat I'm going to post some pics of the raised mount I built and installed for my bow HB 898 that Rickie was kind enough to show me how to build..it's great!
