I have this unit and it came with a DI transducer...the XNT 9 DI transducer.
Can I simply just get the XNT 9 20 transducer? Its cheaper and only does 2d sonar. It will work right?

Call hummingbird and ask. I have a di unit and was told that I had to use the di transducer. I couldnt even use my us2 transducer on my trolling motor for 2d only

The unit uses 200/455 kHz for 2D sonar. The XNT 9 20 transducer is tuned to 83/200 kHz 2D sonar.
If you insist on using a 2D transducer at least use the correct one that matches the unit---- XNT 9 28 T.
