    Default Lowrance transducer question


    Ok so I have a lowrance hds5x and I got it right around Xmas just the unit itself. I went out today and got a transom mount transducer for it part number hst wsbl 106 72 I was just curious if that will allow the structure scan to work as well with that transducer.

    No you will need a LSS 2 box and transducer. About $400

    The LSS 1 will work as well
    GO BIG ORANGE !

    I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.

    Actually, you need the LSS 1 or 2 transducer AND the structure scan black box and Ethernet cable for structure scan to function. The LSS 1 might be cheaper, and depending on length of Ethernet cable needed, a new 15' cable is ~$50.
