Thread: pictures from my 998. help please kosmo

I have better luck turning the contrast down.the lower the setting the more that the structure and the fish will stand out.

im not sure if this is correct.my si settings are not the same as mt di setting.as best as i can tell one does not affect the other

My si and di are also not the same. I was saying on my si. On my di it is like 14-16 and 9-11

I think that Rickie was meaning more generally that the Di sonar information is affected by what the Si sonar beams “see” and that the frequency you select for the Si sonar controls the frequency used for the Di sonar. Basically if it does not show up in the Si sonar it will not show up in the Di sonar. Now the settings you use for each are independent so you could set each such that you could see something on the Di sonar but not the Si sonar or vice-versa.

so when running the 800 the unit seems much brighter do i need to adjust down my sensitivity to make the image not so hot. im going to the lake shortly i am going to try new things and see how it works anyway. im starting to get the feel of it just not alll the way yet. a slow work in progress but i know it will pay off when i get everything figured out.

thanks

I dont get as good of results on 800.i dont think that it overlaps like the 455does
