  1. I had the same problem with mine after I installed the TR-1. Therefore, I did some testing and found that if you remove the long RCA cable between the probe antenna and the unit it will work a little better. You will need a coupler; I believe it was male/male you can pick up at any radio shack something about the wire antenna picking up the A/P signal thou the long cable. So if you can move the moor head unit to the back of the boat and use the coupler to plug directly to the antenna this might solve your problem. It made my unit work a lot better, but as I was lowering the probe deeper into the water it would start messing s up again I believe it was around 60/70 feet. I ending up selling my moor and buying a depth raider and installing it to the back of the boat so the unit plugged directly in the antenna, which ending up solving my problem and I now can lower my probe as deep as I need to without interference. When not in use I discount the unit, put the antenna and power cord ends in a plastic bag and put a rubber band around it so they will not co- road. I tired shielding all the wiring on the A/P and the hand held with no luck as well as all the coax cable on the moor. I also tried ferrite beads and different types of power sources with no luck. Plugging the unit directly in to the antenna was my only fix.

  3. If you can afford them, I would recommend Chamberlain Down-rigger Release kind of pricey but work great because of how there designed. Having 2 adjustments, vertical & horizontal allows you to tighten the rod very tight but allowing the release side very lose.

    Here's a link to there web site they have a video that shows how they work..
