Am having trouble getting a good signal with my colorpoint. I believe the transducer has gone bad as i need to turn the gain up all the way and can only see my lure when i flick it and then just barely. It has always worked just fine till i took it out this year for the first time. The battery is ok and i can read the bottom and also see fish but it acts as tho i don't have the gain turned high enough even tho i crank it up all the way to ten. The transducer has developed a little bulge on the bottom so suspect that is it. I tried a friend's transducer and it seemed to work ok. Now the problem is i have called everywhere and done a search on the internet and at this point i don't believe there exists a transducer anywhere. I know i should just get an lx5 but $$$$$. Any ideas?
