Running 2 Sounders On Boat

[Ryannnnnnnn]

Hey,

I currently have a Garmin striker 4 fitted to the transom of my boat.

I have just upgraded to a Lowrance Hook2 7 tripleshot and haven't fitted it yet.

I am wondering, can I leave the garmin on there and run the lowrance simultaneously (have traditional sonar on garmin and have down view and side view going on lowrance)? From what I understand you can't as you will get 'cross talk' - Does this apply to chirp transducers?

The transducers would sit side by side eachother on the transom.

My boat is tiller steer and the garmin sits up the back with the driver. Can't decide whether to put the lowrance up the back with the driver too, or put one up towards the bow near the trolling motor.

When you guys are sounding around using sideview / other modes, are you usually trolling around with the electric or outboard?

Cheers

Ryan

Hey mate, I have a Garmin striker and a lowrance hook both on my boat.  Transducers are beside each other and they work fine.

Interesting OK thanks Doyley - I've read some mixed things, good to know you've had some success with similar sounders working together

Are there any special considerations as to whether a tripleshot transducer with side scan, should be mounted to the left or right of an existing transducer?
