Lowrance hds7 gen2 touch


Recommended Posts

Really want to upgrade my transducer. The more I search the more confused I get. I have a stock 83/200 transducer on the boat now.

Looking to get a P66 50/200.

 

Then I see the Tm150 with chirp. With this unit I need to put Sonarhub in also?

 

Then there is the Airmar TM260

 

Or simply throw in the towel and get new HDS Gen3????

I made some tweaks to my HDS Gen 2 touch from info that I got from a Lance Valentine/Walleye 101 DVD.  It seems to have helped greatly in the performance.  One of the steps is to select a transducer-the default is a generic transducer.  DVD was less than $30 and was easier than trying to read the manual.

I have the HDS Gen2 (non-touch). With the sonar hub and that TM150 with CHIRP and the long probe side scanning one. I am not 100% sold on the Airmar my stock transducer gives me a really good picture. The Airmar looses the bottom a lot and the screen looks identical to the stock tiny transducer. It is very bubble sensitive as well.
