The thing that baffles me , is that another user was running an elite hdi and his down imaging picture was excellent . A split image of his traditional sonar . All setups are installed on hobies with transducers in water. The later setup was using an 83/200 which still does not explain the variance . Any opions ? I have not called lowrance just yet .
This is just curiosity. So You can run an hdi transducer with the hds unit and select the down imaging frequencies? Does that mean the only difference between the elite, dsi, and hdi is just the transducer? Can that be?
