    Default Using 2 transducers with a Humminbird 859ci DI HD combo


    Is it even possible to use 2 transducers with a Humminbird 859ci DI HD combo? I installed my 859 on the console & put the transducer on the back but I also want to us my Ipilot U2 on the front but I don't want to install a depth finder up front because of the lack of room. Any info would be much appreciated.

    BTW ... the US2 will only do 2d when the HB TS3 switch is selected to use the US2 ...

    You should change the "Transducer Select" menu under the Sonar tab to "Dual Beam" when using the US2 ...
