structure scan has a contrast setting,which can be adjusted up and down depending on the depth of water on how you want to see the picture and what pallette color you are using. i found that the pallette color caused me in many cases to change my contrast, due to the way i see the pallette, everyones eyes are different i believe. also the depth of water caused me to change the contrast, but again i am just learning as well.

here is a link that i am currently looking at that i believe very helpful and shows settings along with pictures and depth on some

hear are a couple of mine, got hundreds, nothing like it, you can almost see the tread on the tire


the more you play or work with any unit the better you will get at it, so practice,practice. is the key, and read all you can and ask as many questions and you can think of
