I often see
situations where somebody is running a sounder on a flybridge and then
goes to the lower helm and turn on another sounder without turning the
first sounder off. In cases where there are separate transducers
rather than slave units I suspect they get confused about which echoes
to recognize.



That certainly seems plausible but I haven't had any interference while
running a Garmin transducer at the starboard stern and a Humminbird at
the port stern separated by about 6 feet. Two identical units probably
would be more troublesome.



I run a Furuno and a Lowrance fishfinder at the same time on Yo Ho. The
transducers are about five feet apart at the transom.
