Yes Sir, now that you mention it, my blue grass seems to only grow
when I've got the 83 freq. on - I usually run both beams.

IBNFSHN, thanks - have to give that a try soon.

Is anyone else having the problems that me and JWhite or did you have the problems and got them fixed??? I'd like to run both freq but not sure how to stop the interference????

I have the same noise, etc. My HB care package came in today. I will be installing it sooner or later. That one part looks like a hemorrhoid donut.:o
Big.

You talkin about the tm choke CP? Just curious if yours is like the one
they sent me... the pics in the instructions they sent out were of just
a donut with wires wrapped round n round, but the actual part they sent
was "potted" inside a neat lil black case, can't see the wires

looked like maybe a new and improved version compared to the pics.

I'm also having problems, particularly with my bow mount 917 hooked to the US2 on my trolling motor. I emailed HB, but haven't received an answer. The depth reading goes wild and the screen is generally screwed up.

I must say that after using my SI for two trips and ready to send it back and get a refund, HB said I had a trolling motor issue. After I installed their kit I have a perfect picture. I really only use it on the bow so without the kit it was useless.
I would have been better off using the Bahamian depthfinder. A 5 gallon bucket with the bottom replaced with 3/4" clear plastic. Our water isn't clear enough for the bucket fishfinder.
LOL
