Lowrance electronic X-16 ii

SURFACE CLUTTER Algae,

plankton, air bubbles, boat wakes,

and schools of bait fish near the

surface of the water can create

large surface echoes on the paper.

These echoes can extend far

down the paper and interfere with

fish or other

target echoes.

Lowrance has a special feature

called "Surface Clarity Control" or

"5CC" that combats surface clutter

effectively.

THERMOCLINE Junction of dif-

ferent temperature layers. When

the warm and cool temperature

layers meet, a discontinuity in the

water is formed that reflects sonar

signals. This is called a thermo-

dine.

TRANSDUCER The "antenna" of

a sonar unit. This contains a small.

crystal that converts the electrical

energy from

the transducer into

sound energy

and sends it into

the water. It then converts any

sound in its frequency range back

into electrical pulses for the

receiver. Transducers have a van-

ety of styles

including "Thru-Hull"

which bolt thru a hole

drilled in the

hull, "Shoot-Thru-Hull" — epoxied

directly to

the inside of a solid

fiberglass hull with no holes

required, and "Transom Mount" —

bolts directly to the transom of the

hull, either below or flush with the

bottom of the boat.

TRANSPORT ASSEMBLY The

mechanism that holds and pulls

the chart paper from the full paper

roll, past

the stylus, and rolls it up

on the takeup side. It also con-

tains the paper

drive motor and

gear

train. -
