I have a new Garmin Echomap Ultra 126 installed on top of console and a GPS Map (2017 version) in the dash below it. When the Gps Map is on I have lots of interference on Echomap. Ideals on how to solve problem? Thanks

Are you running a transducer on each unit? Which ones if so?

GT56 on Echomap and And I think I forgot the other I think 26 or 32 on the GPS Map. They are about 3' apart one on each side of motor. I was wondering if the GPS signal could be the culprit?

GT34 or GT54? 54 has 2d 34 does not. Next time out on the GPSMAPS hit the power button and look for the tab that says enable/disable sonar and disable sonar and see if that solves your problem. If it does change all your frequencies
2d, clearvu and sidevu on one of the units and that should take care of the problem. I don’t know about the gps being the problem. I don’t think it should.

The units do not broadcast GPS data, they only receive it. The only "signal" comes for satellites.
