Just got a new total scan transducer. The picture on my graph is so bad and pixelated. I put the transducer in the exact same spot as the previous one. The only reason I can think of is that I have the excess transducer wire coiled up and ziptied in the side panel next to some other wires. Any advice, assuming the coiled up wore isn’t the problem?

Looks like you’re not running chirp. Try that, and also try adjusting your ping rate to a higher rate.

With a gen 3 you probably won’t get to much better. The best transducer is the 3 in 1 but of course won’t work with gen 3.
