rod bender Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 My brother has an fl8 and is looking to purchase another for his fishing partner (wife) who will be sitting in same shack. Which will give less interference problems? 2 Vexs or 1 vex and 1 lx-3?Any experiences would be appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EBass Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 From my experienceTwo vexs = okTwo Marcums = okOne Vex and One Marcum = okMarcum and two vexs = interference meccaYou should be able to cancel out the interference when running two units close to each other.

Scott Steil Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 Last night I ran two LX-3's and one Fl-18 in the same house....without a problem. We did have to put the FL-18 down on one end of the house and used the LX-3's on the other side of the house. When the FL-18 was on the side with the LX-3's we couldn't tune out the interference. ------------------Mille Lacs Guide Service(320)293-3287www.millelacsguideservice.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

korn_fish Posted December 17, 2003 Share Posted December 17, 2003 Fished an fl8 and fl18 in the same shak (4X8) with the units on opposite ends of the shak. fl8 seen no interference, fl18 had minor interference show up but nothing serious.

Scott Steil Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 When you get to deeper water, lets say 30 ft. That is where you get more interference problems. If you are fishing 15ft and under, you really shouldn't have a problem with any unit in the same house.------------------Mille Lacs Guide Service(320)293-3287www.millelacsguideservice.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shake'em Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 Is anyone seeing any problems running an FL-8 and an FL-18 in the same shack? I just purchased and FL-18, and one of my buddies has the FL-8, though he said up to this point, he receives much interference with another unit in the same shack.

Fourplay Posted December 18, 2003 Share Posted December 18, 2003 I fish a Fl-18 beside a Fl-8 all the time and the interference is usually pretty mild and only shows up from time to time. Nothing that will keep you from using your vexilar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
