(Sonar PA) Answer: Turbulence or air bubbles around the transducer will prevent it from tracking bottom. You may have to adjust the transducer lower or tilt it so that it reads when trolling and when on plane. 98.0 Related Topics: Troubleshooting FAQs (4), TroubleShooting (2) DEPTH READING PROBLEMS Answer: * Losing depth when another sonar unit is on: If two or more sonar units using the same transducer frequency are operating at the same time, one or more of them may lose the depth reading to the interference.
