  1. another gismo to play with . I got one from e bay for 2/3 of the price . tells how much blow back I got on the riggers tells where my dipsy diver runs , lead cores run . and you can find the temp brake is if you don't have a probe to use
  2. sounds like stuck with the interference on chirp 83 khz and 200 khz works just like my old x102 50/200 khz . I do have the units on each side of dash also . hope this helps any one wanting up date their sonar with a fish hawk . does going high tech really land more fish ?
  3. I put a lowrance elite 5 chirp sonar in last fall . I got interference on the fish hawk when on chirp work fine on 200/83 side of transducer how can I stop the interference while the sonar is on chirp the transducers are on opposite side of each other
