    Doug - 798 DI pics

    Doug, I think I got the DI settings close on my 798. Here are a couple of pics with 2D & DI. Looks like they are both picking up the same thing however the DI still doesn't give the fine detail that some of the other units do or even the detail of the SI of the same unit.

    Re: Doug - 798 DI pics (DG)

    DG...I'm interested to see what Doug says about this. I haven't had a chance to get any images of mine yet (forgot the d@%n SD card) but I am pretty sure you are having the same issue I am with the DI. I had an issue with my depth jumping around and talked to HB about it. They gave me some setting changes and it appears that it may have helped not only the depth jumping around but the DI also. The jury is still out on the DI though. Of course, based on the past couple of times I have been fishing, it may just be that I have NO idea where to find fish!

    What was your scroll speed. You wil lget more detail the slower the chart/scroll speed...I like to match boat speed or just a little slower. Play with chart speed to get the details you want.

    I think my scroll speed was set on 3 or maybe 4 but no higher. I was idling around 3 mph. I may drop it down to 2 and see what happens.

    Can you post an image example with Si showing the fine detail and not the DI for comparison?
