Airmar P66 Transducer

[dickey]

Does anyone run an Airmar P66 transducer for their Humminbird? If so do you see an improvement over the stock HB transducer?  It was suggested to run this transducer over the stock transducer for my Helix  9. It will be for trolling on a 196 Fishmaster on Lake O. 
 

Thanks,

I put a p66 on a helix 10 last year and like it. I never ran the stock transducer.  I came from a lowrance hds

I got both transducers mounted, when in trolling I use the p66 and when im perch/ bass or bottom fishings I use the humminbird.. definitely see more marks suspended with the p66

Might want to also check the compatibility chart on Airmar's website. I think they have a dual and tri model if memory serves me correctly.

I contacted airmar and they said I need a P66-DT-HB

Roy’s Boys, do you have both hooked up to your HB and you just toggle between transducers on the touch screen or do you have to unhook and plug in the other each time in back of unit?

I unhook one and plug the other in.. I just have the helix 7. I pretty much run the humminbird transducer on factory setting
