Yes and no. Somebody suggested, what your referring to. Flipping, the two si views to show which si view the structure was on, left or right. Seems like e everybody, disagreed with him. Actually, (imo) his ideal is better than the blended ideal.your si isn't any clearer or better. What's happening is what's actually in the DI view is to week of a return, to give your unit the ability to display it clearly. The better di images that you see, will generally be off to one side or the other. (so really, the to downward turned si views would be better. For some reason, most people say that it's because two views are blended, that's causing an issue, but really it's just to weak of return that's the issue.(the 455khz will overlap better than the 800 kHz. This is why I don't recommend using the 800khz from a SI unit, for your di)
