    Default Does this qualify as interference?


    I have a 797SI on the console and a 788c on the TM. This is how both units look. Wanting to compare with the guys that have had this problem before I call HB.

    I am not the elect. tec.butI would get rid of the fish ID. Go back to factory default and check my sensitivity. Then call HB> Ph call cheep.

    I agree about the fish ID. I bet that goes away when you get in shallower water. If both xducers operate at 200khz there isn't much you can do about it unless you can cahnge the operating frequency on one of them. Or better yet look into linking the 2 together and just use 1 xducer. I can do that with my units but don't know about the Birds.

    On mine, I couldn't get a depth reading unless I turned off my trolling motor. The screen was useless.

    One thing to check is if you are running the transducer in the motor (US2) make sure the connection are tight on the metal adapter that connects the motor and the fishfinder. If this does not solve it call our customer service department and get a kit. Our Customer Service number is 800-633-1468.

    I don't have the universal sonar trolling motor, and If I did, I doubt I'd use it.

    Just my opinion, but in my mind the word universal when dealing with electronics is less then desired.
