Is this a Sonar unit or SI unit ...??

It is just a sonar unit, what im having trouble with is that when i set my lower depth to 30ft it will push everything to the top of the screen and then you cant see anything but a red green line at the top.

Set your depth to auto and let the depth finder do it’s job.Quote:

That red green band at the top is most likely surface clutter ... there is a Surface Clutter setting under the Sonar tab (higher setting = see more surface clutter — lower setting = see less surface clutter) ...Quote:

There is also the option of turning off the 83kHz transmit under the Sonar tab in the setting Beam Frequency (the 83kHz transmit signal is usually the culprit of the surface clutter present at the top of the Sonar screen simply because the wider beam angle of 60° “sees” more junk in the upper water column than the 200kHz 20° Sonar beam) ...

Pretty sure if you search youtube, there will be a video showing all you need to know. Good luck!
Thank you! I am going to try the 200khz on it and then tweak it from there
