and left them still fishing, I had a 200.00 screw up and I got frustrated and left :( 898 ducer cable that was zip tied to shaft came lose and now I have to find another ducer :banghead I dont know if anyone has had any GOOD luck with splicing these babies back together. Would be nice to find a good and cheap used one but I figure that is next to impossible.
I been looking for used one now for a couple weeks, hard to come by. I have spliced them before with good results
My buddy spliced one for a 788 DI and never had a problem with it. Hopefully you won't either.

call the wizzard he can fix any thing but a broken heart but he can passifie it
I've spliced a couple of 2d transducer cables with no ill effects. Here is a link from Canepole with some good info http://spectrum-instruments.com/reso...licing_STP.pdf Searching the forum with the keyword "splicing" has good results.
Hate that you had trouble.
Well looks like only 2 cut completely & the others looks like insulation is stripped back some but appear to be still intact��
It was good seeing you again Larry. Got to see that Custom Fand F boat of yours up close.....thats one fine looking boat. It scoots across the water really good also. Great day on the lake , the weather wasw perfect. It did not start raining untill on the way home. We caught 3 green carp thats it. Saw a lot of fish on the screen but also saw tons of shad.....I think thats why the fish are not biteing they have way too much to eat. Anyhow........will be back next Saturday and going to spider rig instead of single pole like we did today. Hope to see you on the water again soon. Oh, I did lose several jigs and one C.C hat to the lake Gods, lol
Ahhhh the hat is what I saw come flying outta ur boat as I was following �� it was good seeing u & hook one today also�� still hasn't rained here yet. Gotta work at Heritage day here next Saturday doin that PR stuff ��. ��Quote:

Thx Git, think I just might do thatQuote:

Thanks SlabLapper, I think the one that is 89.00 is down image only as the one right below it is the one I need I do believe. I am going to try and splice this one back together, I have sent Cane Pole a PM as I understand he is the wiz on this type stuffQuote:
