Thread: Two Transducers

Check lowrance site and see if they offer a A/B switch. It would hook to finder then 2 inputs for ducers

Thank you Cray, I'll look into that

Humminbird question ..Ive asked.Rickie the same question and would like another opinion..... ive got a question about the switch,ive got a new 788ci combo and i have a switch and older wide 100 unit it quit working but the transducer is still on my auto-pilot will that transducer work (off the h-b wide 100) on my new unit for the front of boat and then mount my new transducer on back of the boat

If you could get it to plug up your WIDE 100 transducer would work for the 200kHz sonar on your 788ci unit but not for the 83kHz part of the 788ci sonar.

The WIDE 100 uses a different plug connector, so you would need an AD-629 adapter to get it to work. It may just be better to buy a new trolling motor transducer and have all of the sonar capabilities that the 788ci can give you. The XTM-9-20-T DualBeam transducer or even the XTM-9-QB-90-T QuadraBeam transducer are possible replacements.

Gotta fish... With Greg's info I would suggest using the stock xducer (dual beam plus 83/200)...

And then buy the Quadrabeam xducer ..XNT 9 QB 90 :: Humminbird

And the xducer select switch...TS3 :: Humminbird :: Transducer Switch

This would give you 2 separate (or combined) 2d beam choices (83/200) at one end of the boat...

Plus a Quadrabeam xducer at the other end of the boat...

This the Quadrabeam..
