[Public-List] Depth Transducer

[Lawrence Morris]

Transducers are unique to the sounding instrument. Finding depth  
sounder to match with a transducer is a long shot at best. If you find  
one chances are the transducer is bad.

You can mount new tranducer in the same hole by driving a wood plug in  
the hole and drilling the larger hole with hole saw. The pilot drill  
will go through the wood plug and hole  saw will cut your new hole.  
Remeber to cut a couple of angled blocks in order to have the  
transducer face parallel with the water line. This gives the most  
accuracy
