Selecting
a
Frequency
for
the
echo
150
When
using
a
dual-beam
transducer,
you
can
select
a
frequency
of
200
kHz
or
77
kHz
for
the
echo
150.
NOTE:
The
echo
100
operates
only
at
200kHz.
You
can
show
data
from
a
200
kHz
sonar
signal
or
data
from
a
77
kHz
sonar
signal.
The
200
kHz
frequency
shows
better
detail,
has
a
narrower
beam,
and
is
typically
used
in
shallower
waters.
The
77
kHz
frequency
penetrates
deep
water
more
effectively
and
has
a
wider
beam,
so
it
can
be
used
to
cover
a
larger
area.
