Does anyone run this setup? I read an Amazon review that said you would get interference? Can you just turn off the transducer you’re not using?

Yes if running at the same time you will get interference. You don't list what units you have.

I'd recommend settting the GT8 to the manual frequency 150kHz. Then set the GT54 to either 200 or above. That should take care of it.
My wife asks if I'm going to fish every day. I can't fish every day. Some days I might be sick.
We assume you realize you can't run these two transducers to one head unit.
Can you not use a y cable like you do with Humminbirds? Looking at running this on an Echomap 93sv. I wanted to run the 8 as a shoot thru for on plane depth reading and the 54 for idling side scanning.
No you can't. The GT8 can only be used with a Y connector and a GT30 or GT36 which both are Si and Di only.

Before you go out and buy a combo set what is the exact model of unit? There are at least 3 93sv models so only specific image ducers will work.

Thanks for the feedback from everyone. I saw an old thread that explained how the 36 doesn’t have built in 2D to interfere with the GT8. Also people in that thread complaining because it’s not as easy as it is with Humminbird.
That's correct. Not everyone is the same donthings different.

This:The GT8 can only be used with a Y connector and a GT30 or GT36 which both are Si and Di only & that's what I used 8 & 36-works great!
