Thanks Greg,

It explains the width of the 50khz being wider thus makes sense when I see objects on it vs. the 200khz.. they're out to the side of the useful 200khz cone. I'll play with the ping speed to see what works for me. Default seems too fast.

As to many strong targets showing on 200khz but not 50, I think I may be having trouble with the 50khz accuracy due to my shoot-through 'ducer. I'll be going through-hull when the Hobie warranty expires but until then I guess I'll go wet vs. goop and see if that helps. This 'ducer is big! Have to figure something out for a water container.

Got a handle on the rest of it! Thanks again...
