Seems to do it mostly in shallower water, but will do it no matter the depth or bottom composition. I've grounded my trolling motor, you name it. I also installed a heading sensor puck, which I intended to flush mount at the bow too, but had to put it next to the console because of electronic interference. You can run a magnetic compass all over the front 3' of my bow and there's interference coming from somewhere.

Well, my niece's fiancé is the main "rigger" at Wedowee Marine (maybe the biggest Phoenix dealer in the state), that rascal is a wizard with these electronics. So back at Christmas I was lamenting to him about all this and without knowing, he asked, "You got Humminbirds, right?" I said yes, and he said, "live with it, you ain't gonna fix it." Apparently this is a widespread issue.
He did say I could probably get the new Ultrex with the built-in transducer and eliminate all/most of it, but most likely nothing else would work.


Turn the depth setting off auto and set it to 100 ft or something.

confused Hadn't considered that...I'll give it a shot!


We were on the edge of Eternia, when the power of Greyskull began to take hold.
