Indications on the single frequency display
Single frequency
50 kHz picture
The sounder uses ultrasonic pulses to detect bottom conditions. The lower the
frequency of the pulse, the wider the detection area. Therefore, the low
frequency is useful for general detection and judging bottom condition.
200 kHz picture
The higher the frequency of the ultrasonic pulse the better the resolution.
Therefore, the high frequency is ideal for detailed observation of fish school.
