Did u find an emulator for the hds 5 can't see it there ! There's the elite 5 an 5 x

no emulator for the hds series. If you haven't updated your software (new in Feb), do so. Make sure your transducer is properly aligned and start out with the sonar set to automatic.

Hi mate

I've got my noise rejection up a little. But every one will be different. I normally only play around with my sensitivity.

Every location you go to you should adjust you sensitivity by turning it up then turning it down removing the clutter.

Have a look at these clips if you haven't already looked at you tube.

if you have alot of noise on your sounder i would be looking at your install

make sure the transducer is in nice clean water

and check the routing of the cables as they can suffer from electrical interference
