So I was planning on upgrading this spring with more than likely a mega helix 9 at the console and a DI 9 or maybe maybe a DI 10 helix for the front.
With the prices of the gen 1 helix 10 si im seriously considering getting one now and putting it at the console. Then still buy a mega 9 helix in the spring which would take over the console unit and the helix 10 si would go up front.
Helix 10 si gen 1 can be had for $900 shipped right now... that extra resolution would be nice. I know it doesn't have chirp or the better DI. It does have the hdsi transducer which is better than the gen 1 9" which can be had for $800.
it would also allow me to stop mapping this year with acl
Have even slightly considered getting 360 for the front unit at some point if they have a mount for the new Terrova which the 10 would be a lot better than the 9.
If linked together after I get the helix 9 mega, if I have the mega on 1200hz I know I can't see the mega on the front finder but will it show 800hz when the console unit is set on 1200? Or do I have to set the console (mega) unit at 800hz to use the rear mega transducer?
Is it even worth linking if I would with a helix 10 g1 and a helix 9 mega?
thanks guys. Hard to pass on the helix 10si for that price.
