After seeing Bassbme's post, I went back and looked. The power is included in the model number in a bunch of other blanks, but the model number I'm interested in is, "X13-Composite - B". I'm guessing...

I just installed my new Terrova and put my Humminbird DI/SI transducer on it last week. I followed Scott Cook's procedure in this thread and so far, I'm really happy with it. I think I wound up with...
Interesting trick... how does this reduce interference?
