    Exactly!
    I was wondering why I could only choose 455 or 262 for the si frequency.... I had never heard of the 262, I thought it was supposed to be 800. Anyway, there are several transducer options--do not pick the regular side scan --make sure your option is hi-def side scan . That solved my problem.

    Thanks for the follow up Joey...

    You're not the 1st that has mistakenly closen the wrong selection in the "Transducer Select" menu (under the Sonar tab)...

    I am still learning my new hb unit and not seeing the structure that i know is there cause i put it.Was wondering what does the diffrence in frequncies do for the image.And if i change the ducer settings will this help in finding structure cause the first two times i used it i really was'nt seeing any structure at all?

    Frequency choice is dependent on what task you are doing at the time...

    I use the 455kHz to find new structure because the image will be brighter out to the edges of the display...
    Then I will put a waypoint on the interesting stuff and re-position the boat to rescan that interesting item with the 800kHz because the image will be sharper to help descern what that interesting item might be...

    The 455kHz will "see" farther out to the sides...but the image will be a little fuzzy...
    The 800kHz will not "see" as far out to the sides...but the image will be crisper...
