Somebody's been experimenting

Afriend or mine made a few picktures with DI transducer rotated at 45 degrees:

I'm not sure about network stuff kosmo ...

I only have the one 1197 ...

To might try swapping which xducer plugs into which unit maybe...:dono

Vik...your friend has basically "aimed" the downward pointing piezo out toward the side at 45°...??

Rickie

Yes, he had, and he his is happy with having half SI on his DI , but I think he will come up to dedicated SI unit sooner or later :)

Vic...I am also curious about this setup (of rotating the DI xducer)..

How is this obtaining accurate depth...??

I ask also kosmo...are those last images from the rotated 60° HDSI xducer...but viewed thru the Ethernet on the other unit...!?

Rickie

Why not just buy a SI/DI unit?
