Fishfinder to MFD8

[Anonymous]

Hi,
Do you know if there any low budget alternatives around to get the MFD8 to show a proper echo picture, or is the DFF1 the only way to go?

I have a used MFD8 screen leftover at work which Im about to install in my boat, and apart from charts the echo would be nice thing to have....

Thanks!

Finnboater-

The DFF1 (plus transducer) is the least expense option for an echo sounder on a MFD8.
If you are just looking for digital depth in a Data Box there are less expensive options of just a smart transducer.

Thanks Melville,

I was thinking about a echo sounder.
Will see what I do for a start, the system can of course be upgraded at a later stage.
