do you know who the source of this is? You perhaps?

ive just ordered all the parts and will be building this right away. All I think I need now is the foot controller, or even a hand...

Very interesting, thank you very much. The thing is genius.

Think of LS as a flashlight underwater. If the transducer is fixed, then you would have to point your boat to look at a certain spot. And on a transom it would always be behind you.
I tried it...

Interesting, thanks. I have some electrical contact cleaner ‘deOx’ on the Amazon truck right now. While I can’t imagine any real corrosion going on, it’s also the thing that makes the most sense.

So I just used my Ultra 106sv with Livescope and I had a few nightmares. One is my unit just hanging on startup at the disclaimer screen. I can’t hit Agree, and yes I tried a billion times, clean...

I haven’t touched bottom fill. That sounds promising. I doubt I’ll use trails, as suggested in the vid. I rarely am sitting in real calm water, or sitting in one spot. Therefore everything is moving,...

I’m confused. How would anyone know what version your GLS has? Is it new? Look at your active captain and you’ll see. You can update both through it. I’m going to presume your trying to avoid the...

Hey
So I’m still tuning my LS, as limited as that seems to involve. I’m finding my LS has poor target separation compared to 2D and Down. I understand my range can greatly effect that and I’m...

Awesome info, thanks for sharing. I’m still trying to fine tune mine.

I found this video helpful to initially set things up. It’s from Garmin.

I haven’t done any homework on Royt’s problems at all. Nor have I stated or implied he’s incorrect in any fashion. My point is that his tone on every post I’ve seen is similar. “Garmin sucks”. Tone,...

I though this might be interesting. I’m sure some / most use different colors in different conditions, yet let’s say this choice is you main fishing color.

Feel free to add what condition, target...

I don’t think hijacking irrelevant threads with piss & vinager is the way to solve anything. To me it just sounds like someone who’s got an axe to grind and wants the world to know.
I can...

I’d suspect your cable pulled the TD up/down when deploying or retrieving the TM. I have an Powerdrive and keeping my cables ‘loose’ is an issue occasionally. If the above suggestions wasn’t the...

Too bad? Perspective has nothing to do with the transducer, it’s how the black box processes the data. I suspect your and others issues with the ‘update’ have more to do with the actual water...

Maybe a voltage drop issue? The Garmin Panoptics instructional video I watched said you may have to put a switch on the gs10 power so you can avoid multiple units drawing too much at once via...

I believe you set that up for each sonar, IE traditional, side, down. Sonar setup, installation then transducer. If it’s not getting temp that way, it would have to be a bug.
My 106sv randomly...

It pays to search. I just went through this and the thread is pretty informative. Run a ground from your sonars battery (dedicated a must IMO), from anything in contact with your Aluminum hull, if...

I wasn’t really accusing you, just noting how it could be seen as suspicious. I’m sure you have better things to do then slander Garmin to boost HB sales, lol.
And I don’t watch CNN, or the news...

Ah, makes sense. It’s just a matter of physics though. A 1120 kHz signal can only go so far with the given power, and again geometry. If you were in 125’ of water you could see past 50’, yet only...

put angle ∠β=52°, and A as your depth and...

I’ve seen the same effect, yet not that ‘bad’. The 1120 and 455 need separate contrast levels, that sadly need to be manually adjusted, unless I’m mistaken. I think it’s displaying that the water...

You keep saying this, and it’s completely BS. What manual are you reading?


MAXIMUM DEPTH
CHIRP: 800 ft.; ClearVü 200 ft.; SideVü 500'; UHD SideVü 125'

Nice videos. Your ‘real world’ is likely a lot different than mine. I’d love to see what things look like at a distance, like 50-100-150-200 ft. I understand depth / geometry impact range. You’ll get...

At the lakes around me, I prefer the 1120 UHD, since I’m looking more for fish than structure. TBH I can’t say I’ve marked actual fish on SideVu yet. Although a dozen trips isn’t enough to learn it...
