Jerry Barton adjusted mine last spring at Dale Hollow and since then, I have
never lost signal. Seems that I had mine mounted too low in the water.

The way it was explained to me, you only need it about 1/16 to 1/8 of an
inch below the hull. If you're mounting it on a step-up, then it's probably
out of the water while you're on plane.

OK Think I got enough BPS giftcards to go shopping. Have my eye on
three depthfinders. Want to take the factory Pirhana (worthless) and
put it up front. Want to mount one of these three (or will take any
suggestions of others) at the wheel. Must be able to read while on
plane (unlike factory supplied).....THANKS

I have to say, I have a Garmin 160 and a 240. They work great, but I
don't
anything off of them on plane. That could be my mounting location. The
one
on my transom is above the step.
