Roy Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 Sorry, I don't undestand the question. You have an Eagle Fishmark 320 and you put an Eagle 500c on what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinker Posted February 10, 2009 Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 I do the same thing, but with an x-97/500c. Sounds like your transducer is messed up. Switch them and see what happens. I've had a new one for mine on order for 3 weeks now, still waiting. Sinker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moose Posted February 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 80 plus tax, it seems to be working in fish tank i had to move the batteries in pack to turn on then it s working iam going to keep trying it every couple of hrs, take your parts with you so they can test them right there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinker Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Thanks, will do. I'm not sure I'd trust readings from a fish tank. I know mine doesn't mark right until I'm 3-4 ft deep. All I get is surface clutter. What are you using for a battery? Sinker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
