IMPULSE MODEL 2800

[PYROPAL]

HI. I HAVE THIS UNIT AND MANAGED TO CUT THE TRANSDUCER CABLE. IT IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE AN ICE FISHING/ANCHOR FEATURE THAT ALLOWS REALTIME VEIWING ABILITY. WELL, THE NEW TRANSDUCER IS SUPPOSED TO BE 70$. I AM WONDERING IF ANYONE HAS ANY EXPERIENCE USING THE UNIT IN THIS MODE. RATHER THAN SPEND 70$ ON A UNIT THAT MAY NOT DO WHAT I WANT, IT MAY MAKE MORE SENSE TO PUT THAT MONEY TOWARDS A NEW MARCUM. HAS ANYONE EVER HAD A TRANSDUCER CABLE REPAIRED? THIS ONE HAS A FOIL SLEAVE RUNNING THROUGH THE CABLE...THANX,PYRO.

You have to solder them and then seal everything up so no water gets in. Major pain, and I didn't think it worked as good as it had before I cut it off.
