I bought two of these, an Elite 7 and an Elite 4 last fall and just got around to installing them. In the manual it states that when you are in downscan you can overlay the conventional sonar page. I assume that this places the conventional sonar image on top of the downscan image. I'm I correct? Can someone explain to me what this accomplishes? Is it something that is useful? Or am I not understanding the manual?

 

Thanks in advance

Yes it does overlay one on top of the other.  I used it a few times with my units then decided it wasn't worth it.

Thank you for your response Jig Man. This is what I thought. Another question, do you and should I cailbrate the transducer on the TM to compensate for the fact the the transducer is about a foot or two below the water surface? I'm new to this (fishing for LM on a boat) so I really appreciate the guidance and opinions here.

 I adjust for the transducer depth with my Humminbird units.

 

I do a lot of sonar logging for contour mapping and want accurate depths for the contour lines.
