The Most Revolutionary Finders Since The Little Green Box
Less Noise, More Targets
With Lowrance Broadband digital signal processing software, noise goes way down and sensitivity goes way up.
The result: Ultimate target discrimination with incredible high-denition separation of those distinctive Lowrance
“sh arch” targets from structure and other sh!
Crystal-Clear Clarity
With advanced digital ltering, Broadband vastly improves at-a-glance display clarity, sharpens bottom images
and paints a much cleaner picture of targets that others will miss or show poorly.
Greater Shallow-Water Coverage
To cover even more water, Broadband automatically adds 83 kHz operation to a Lowrance 200 kHz single-
frequency transducer. At 83 kHz, you get full 120-degrees of wide-angle coverage with greatly enhanced
denition of sh arch targets.
Incredible Deep-Water Performance
Broadband sounding is serious electronics when the hunt is on for sh in any deep water weather condition.
Even at higher boat speeds, Broadband keeps a bottom lock at depth, with exceptional targeting of sh arches
on the bottom, around wrecks and other seabed structure. And when used with a high-power transducer, strong
bottom locks and water column detail reach down thousands of feet!
Expandability at No Extra Cost
For added value, HDS Broadband-equipped models can turn an HDS GPS Chartplotter (or GlobalMap
®
chartplotter with yellow ethernet connector) into a powerful combination shnder/chartplotter with complete
sonar graph control when networked by Lowrance Ethernetworks.
HDS Highest-Denition Broadband Fishnding
Incredible and award-winning, exclusive Broadband Sounder digital technology is
now inside all HDS sonar models for the best Lowrance shnding ever! As the vital
link between the transducer and your HDS display, Broadband is proven to nd
more sh with greater sensitivity, higher denition and more display clarity with
superior target separation in all cover, in thermoclines and in all water conditions.
Broadband with 200 kHz (shown with blue-screen background)
provides crystal-clear images of shing hotspots -- like this creek
channel with trees at the top of each bank and surrounded by
suspended bait and gamesh.
Broadband with 83 kHz (shown with white-screen background)
provides wider coverage and enhanced target returns, to more easily
identify suspended sh in thermoclines and near the surface.
