Hey all... who out there is using the Universal Sonar 2 transducer that's built into the nose of the Minn-Kota TM's? How do you like it? Any concerns about their ruggedness?

I have had no problems what so ever!
Love The one I have, But just have a hb565 on it now, but did put the coils and new power cord on it ,works great now
I had interference problems with mine. The dual beam transducer that came with my 'bird is far superior to the us2 anyway, so I installed it.
Don't know if the transducer quality is the best, but it sure is a clean setup.
Yes interference is what I had when I first put my Mk 80 on with my old 565 but had the old power cord with it and Hb sent me a new one with the coil and as of now can't tell much diff. in the old & new TD, works great ! and as said clean setup, really like it, but if I go with the SI on the TM will have to do it the old way,Oh also had to replace a blown fuse in the head of the TM, found that out on a thread here , Thanks
Yea that's what I was interested in also was the simple set-up anc uncluttered wiring. It gives me a depth from the front of the boat and should work well with the better quality finder/transducer in the back. Thanx for everyones input will post later on how I like it.Quote:

I've only used mine a few times on my HB788C but it seems to work great with zero interference issues. Sure beats the crap out of worrying about twisting up external transducer cables I had on my PD55.
I have it and no problems at all,,,, although I agree with feelay the factory ones made just for the unit your are using seem to be a little more sensitive... but all in all I really like the ease of use...
i have it and like it fine. i have the lowrance hds7 on the console
I have it and have had no problems....it works good.
Times X. No problems.

My HDS7 on the front has interference on it and doesn't show as well as I think it should. My 10 on the dash shows much better, but gets worse on the us2. Any fixes for this?
