Deitz Dittrich Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 could be a ducer issue, but I would check to be sure the ducer is hanging perfectly straight... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCLaker Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Look at the paperwork with the FL-20. It should have instructions on how try to fix this type of problem for Dual Beam ducers (related to sealant not setting correctly so doesn't hang right). Or call Vexilar support.The Vex HSOforum has the instruction. Got to support, manuals, Ice-ducer instruction sheet (dual beam). This is and excerpt from the instructions, you'll want to read the full instructions: "If the Transducer will not hang straight on it’s own, pull on the cable hard twisting it around in a circle. This will break free any excess sealant left over from manufacturing." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
