Transducer placement?

    Just curious where everybody places their transducers on the transom. Particularly if u have more than one transducer.

    The reason i ask, i have an Lowrance LCX-18c on the console and the transducer is mounted on the the starboard(right) of the transom. I also have a Hummingbird 300TX on the bow of the boat and the transducer is mounted on the portside(left). These transducers are spaced about 3′ apart. Yet at times, the hummingbird causes interference on the lowrance when both are running. The lowrance would show depths of 400 – 600′ or more when floating in 6 fow.

    Not positive, but i believe both are running just standard single beam 200Khz transducers.

    Any suggestions or tips for better placement for the transducers that would eliminate the interference. Or if there are configuations on the units to clear the interference.

    It wouldn’t be that bad if the hummingbird experienced the interference, but when the lowrance is what i primarily use, it be nice to have a clean pic while both are running.
