2. FINE TUNING THE SONAR PICTURE
2-7
2.6 Choosing Beamwidth
2.6.1 Horizontal beamwidth
If you wish to have better bearing discrimination (ability to distinguish two closely
located targets at the same range and different bearings) for fish schools and
also wish to examine the contour of bottom, set HOR BEAMWIDTH to NARROW,
on the SONAR menu.
2.6.2 Vertical beamwidth
For better bearing discrimination in the vertical direction, set VER BEAMWIDTH
to NARROW, on the SONAR menu.
2.7 Deleting Weak Echoes
You can remove weak echoes to clear the picture. Echoes are deleted by
strength so this feature is useful for observing only large fish schools or
suppressing interference.
