thank you for the response- I will give that a try and see if it works

I hope it's a easy fix- going to pick up suppressor plugs regardless of the problem- the power cord will be where I start- def near other wires- thanks again for your thoughts

Thanks SK8man- I will check the wires when I get back to Wilson where the boat is-It's the same exact transducer shape- the more I google the issue the more possibilities pop up. I am reading that RPM interference shows up as vertical lines in this unit as I stated I'm having. I'm working in NYC this week and have a lot of hotel time so hopefully I can pin this down some online and maybe a call to lowrance

now that I sit here thinking about it again- when it starts to get bumpy my RPM goes up some to compensate - any help appreciated-

I have a issue with my HDS with "interference" on the screen but only when it gets a little bumpy out. When it's dead calm it runs perfect. It stops marking my deepest downrigger also - if not both when this happens. By interference I mean vertical lines from top to bottom on the screen. It happens in auto or in manual mode where I can control sensitivity,ping speed and color line. I have a Starcraft islander and I installed it last year. I put the transducer in the same spot that my last lowrance transducer was. Transducer location ? My settings seems to be spot on. Any suggestions appreciated before I start drilling needless holes- Thanks

Saturday 5-7. Another tough day of fishing. All lakers no salmon. Best part of the day was watching the WHI boats take off after the shotgun start- pretty cool. Back at it Wednesday- hopefully the blow tonight into tomorrow stirs some things up and the fishing changes. Talked to some WHI guys at the launch at the end of the day and it doesn't sound like many got into the Kings heavy- only a few teams with 6 salmon to weigh - so I was told

X2 on the boards! Good luck today

Fished from 60' to 250' and could not get a decent program going. Took some lakers (hard not too) a couple coho and one King around 12#. Every fish came off a different lure. Lots of boats and most seemed to be searching like I was. Be back out in the morning- hope to have a better day-

Just tie the end off to the reel handle or reel seat with a loop- they will give you instructions on how they like them shipped when you talk to them- it's not a issue

. Zebra mussels and quagga mussels are here to stay. I do a lot of zebra mussel sampling for various industries and utilities. Any reduction methods are only temporary. The only sure method that keeps them out of any body of water is low calcium levels in the water. This makes it impossible for them to mature into a adult and grow a shell and reproduce.I have been sampling the NYC drinking water reservoir systems for 20+ years. The calcium is why they are not in that system..... Yet. Most but not all are calcium deficient. Also we have found mussels in perch and sheepshead while doing stomach analysis studies.
