    HELIX G2N SI models are showing new xducers ...

    XM 14 20 MSI T for HELIX 12 SI G2N ...

    http://www.humminbird.com/Products/H...GA-SI-GPS-G2N/

    XM 9 20 MSI T for HELIX 10 SI G2N and HELIX 9 SI G2N ...

    http://www.humminbird.com/Products/H...GA-SI-GPS-G2N/

    I can't find much specs yet ... except this ...

    CHIRP/Side Imaging/Down Imaging/DualBeam PLUS

    455kHz Side Imaging provides 800 ft of side to side coverage.
    455kHz Down Imaging works to a depth of 400 feet.
    1.2 MHz Side Imaging provides 250 feet of side to side coverage.
    1.2 MHz Down Imaging works to a depth of 125 feet

    I've been thinking about this new transducer.The talk is that it going to have separate Piezo elements for mega scanning and the regular kHz ,that were all used to.side and diwn imaging.seems to me that that transducers going to be pretty crowded,with all that in there.Also seems to me,if that transducer is a low Q transducer,it would be pretty expensive to bulit? ? dono

    It's my understanding the new Mega xducer is very similar to the ONIX SI xducer ...maybe a smidge longer ...

    2 side pointing SI pieoes capable of 455kHz/800kHz/1200kHz fixed and CHIRP ...
    1 down pointing DI piezo capable of 455kHz/800kHz/1200kHz fixed and CHIRP ...
    1 2d piezo capable of 83kHz/200kHz fixed and CHIRP ...
    1 temp probe ...

    I have found no info on Q factor yet ...

    It will be interesting to see how 1200khz and trolling motor pulse modulation play together?
