Humminbird Sonar Question

Humminbird Sonar Question - 07/10/15 07:57 PM

Almost every time I come off plane my units won't register depth until a few minutes later. Anyone else have this issue? Units are 1199 and 1159 I think.

Also, ton of interference with the unit on the bow frok the TM. So much that the 2d is virtually unusable. I think that unit is an 1159.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

What transducer are you using for on-plane depth readings and where is it installed?

Contact Humminbird Customer Service is assistance with trolling motor RFI.

You "think" what the unit models are?????

Which 1159??

If you don't have your power connections straight to the cranking battery, I would suggest making that change. It eliminated all my interference.

Those transducers are out of the water when you're on plane right? Put the units on standby to stop them from pinging off into nothing.....

and then take then off standby when I come off plane? I'm gonna try that! I went out again today and if I unchecked and recheck the correct unit I want it to read from it'll reset and work.
