Fit it first and then set it up.

I have 2 x 95SV Plus, GT52HW, GLS10 Panoptix Livescope, and AIS800

Fit it correctly 1st Provided that's done properly and your power supply is good then the rest is down to time spent using it. Plenty to learn on YT etc but actual use in the water is key imo

[Wolf]

How did it go on Sunday mate ?

 

[j willson]

for a first time it went good clear reading on it would read up to 30 mph , operator the biggest trouble , did mark fishing spot drifted off it and returned to it within in 10 ft , there so much stuff on it it hard to think what's better to have on screen . could drift over any where and see a single fish at bottom , loads of sand eels bunching up as guillemots went for them looked like a big bee hive hanging in water .

 

[Wolf]

What you might have to do is go through all the screen settings & see what one is best for you mate,at least you know it works well

 

[j willson]

[Wolf]

Reading the sonar comes with experience. After a good few trips you will be able to almost identify species from the fish arches and bait balls, by their action and position in the water column. Also, you will be able to identify floating weed in the current.

I also have Panoptix livescope, which takes sonar to a whole new level, but often I will have traditional sonar on one plotter and livescope downscan on the other.
