I read on another site that the Helix 7 DI did not have 800khz capability. Does anyone know if this is true? Looking at it for a bow mount but really would like the HD feature. Anyone know?

The Humminbird site says 200/455/800 khz.
All of the HB DI models have the capability of 200kHz/455kHz 2d and 455kHz/800kHz DI ...(they are all shipped with the same XNT 9 DI T) ...
The larger HB DI models (800/900/1100) can also use the XTM 9 WIDE DI 20 T at 83kHz/200kHz 2d and 455kHz/800kHz DI ...

Thanks Guys.
A little heads up, my 7 doesn't zoom in on di worth crap. So far that's the only complaint I have
Can you post screenshots of this ...??Quote:

sorry, where I live the fishing season is about over. All the lakes close to me are closed for waterfowl. I have only used my Helix 7 two times, haven't had it very long. If I find some structure I want to take a closer look at, I click on it it, arrow the indicator to spot, and zoom. It get very blurry and really doesn't help. I read in another post somewhere that was an issue, but it was too late mine was ordered and paid for
It's normal for the zoom to not be as clear as the normal size ...Quote:

That's not to say that your issue may not be an anomaly I'm not aware of ...
Can you run the simulator and capture screenshots of an open zoom box for analysis here ... ??

LOL, I probably could if I could figure out how to run the thing. I need to sit down and watch the instruction dvd and then go play with it
Thanks Bassing. I hardly ever use the zoom feature anyway.
Well its a done deal. Installed and ready for Saturday. I'll try to post up some screen shots. Thanks for all the help guy's.
Might even catch a fish....
Yeah keep us posted i just pulled trigger and got one on order...looking forward to seeing how it does
Great machine. Very happy with it. I think I'll get me a Onix 10 at Christmas for the dash.
