Guys I have a Helix 9 G2N MSI, Helix 7 G2N MSI, network cable and dongles. Both transducers are bad. Are these head units worth anything? Thanks, Bill

Sure are. I would say 5-700 dollar range ish. :dono
I have a TM Xducer you can have to go with it.

Ebay is full of Head Units for sale.
would tend to think they are decent units to own and have a ok resale value , all the folks upgrading are running way from them like they are on fire , but as I remember they worked well when I been on boats with them .
what is a better upgrade , in a 9 or 10 inch i'm not much of a HB person
Most people say the larger the screen the better.
Would these work with a Terrova w/ the built in mega transducer?
Do you have built in mega si or di on your Terrova? The compatibility chart will help you but from what I read it is networkable with it.

Yes, my HB 10 Gen2 MSI works on my Ulterra w the built in MSI transducer. You have to get the MSI transducer TM to realize Side Imaging. If you get the TM with the MDI, you will not get Side Imaging.Quote:

I’ll check again to be positive, but I’m pretty sure it’s MDI transducer. The way I read the compatibility charts, if you have an MDI transducer and use that with a MSI unit, you will only get down imagining.

I read this as the built in mega transducer will only show MDI or 2D sonar. What’s y’alls take?
There are 3 options for Minn Kota built in transducers …:Quote:

If your model name says MDI - it’s 2d and MEGA DI ...
SI cannot be obtained from a MDI transducer simply because a MDI transducer does not physically contain SI piezoes ...
