Single frequency display
50 kHz
The sounder uses ultrasonic signals to
detect bottom conditions. The lower the
frequency of the signal, the wider the
detection area. Therefore, the 50 kHz
frequency is useful for general detection
and judging bottom condition.
200 kHz
The higher the frequency of the ultrasonic
signal the better the resolution. For this
reason the 200 kHz frequency is ideal for
detailed observation of fish schools.
