998 Sonar Setting Help
I have a 998c SI Combo unit and not sure which transductor came with it. I guess the standard one but not sure.
Under the Transductor Select tab, I have 7 options Hi Def sidescan ,Compact sidescan, sidescan ,Quad Beam, Duel Beam, Duel 50/200 and Universal Sonar 2. I'm confuessed as to what setting(s) I should be using and what is the differences is between these setting.
Another question I have is under the Beam Select tab I have 3 options 200/83 HZ, 200 KHZ and 83 KHZ. Not sure which setting I should be using and the differences between them. Any and all help greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for you time and knowledge

This should be the xducer that came with the 998c SI Combo...It should be printed on the xducer cable about a foot up from the xducer itself...
Like Jax said... The xducer setting is "Hi Def Sidescan"...
Your 998 has 2 separate 2d sonar beam frequencies...
83kHz 60degree cone
200kHz 20 degree cone
The unit can be set to either beam separately (83kHz or 200kHz) or a "blend" of the 2 beams together (83kHz/200kHz)...
I usually have my 1197 set to the "blended" 83kHz/200kHz... This will give the greatest detail of structure in the 200KHz 20degree beam.... Plus... It will still pick up fish returns in the wider 83kHz 60 degree cone...

Thanks for sharing the knowledge. Those videos of Doug's are awsome. I have learned to much, hope I can just remember what I've have leaned and put it to good use when I can get back on the water.
Thanks again!!!

Get a SD card for the unit and post up some snapshots from your HB use...
