assuming the fish are coming out of the brushpile towards you, you might have the ability to see them. There could be 100 2lb crappie on the other side of that pile, and you'd never see them. 360 will work the same as SI, it can't see through objects.
HB and LOW both have and continue to sell DI only and 2D. That isn't going to change. I'm awaiting information and pics from real users, then we'll have actual information. I sure as heck hope it's worth the money, or there will be some upset folks.
I fully understand the concept, I still see it being more useful while your on the tm fishing, not idling around searching though.Quote:

Rickies link answered my question.
Past history in this industry has pretty well shown that the only way for a certain item to come down in price is when it is being phased out of production for newer technology...Quote:

TM mounting of the 360 might not even be necessary...
With the radius range of the sweep..you would only lose the "length of the boat" in the forward arc of the sweep while the 360 is mounted on the transom...
And it can be controlled from the HB head unit "or" the 360 unit itself...
So the user could be on the front deck, control the 360 from the head unit, search and fish with 360 at the same time...

I was thinking along the lines of cheaper mounting options, plus thats where I'd use it, I think.Quote:
