    Default Sonar and DI transducer interference question.


    I have a sonar unit up front (Lowrance, forgot the model) and a new Lowrance Mark 5 DSI on the console. Both transducers are mounted on the transom, opposite sides of the motor. Do I get interference from the sonar on the DSI? Just wondering because I hardly can see anything on the DSI. Not too happy with the unit at the moment. Maybe it's just me. Thanks for your help.

    Turn the old one off and see if it makes a difference.

    I have a HDS-7, and a Elite 5X-DSI mounted on the Trolling Motor. I get NO interference on either units. A DSI Transducer on the Elite-5X DSI and a Sonar Scimmer on the HDS-7.

    Turning OFF the unit with the least interference, should get you the answer you are looking for.
