, there can be multiple transducers installed on a boat. If two transducers are transmitting at or close to the same frequency and the signals cross, interference may appear on the display of your Garmin Marine Chartplotter.
Can you hook up two fish finders to one transducer?
Registered.
You CAN run two Fish finders on Different Frequency’s
, you will not be able to run both at 200kHz one must be 83 or 50 kHz. Depending on what brand of fish finder you will run , some will allow two or more monitors linked to just one transducer using a Nema 2000 backbone.
