GP1971 and B265LH

[stephen.battista]

Hey all,

I’m currently running 2x GP1971 sounders and looking to upgrade from my p66 transducer. Currious if anyone can tell me if a B265LH transducer can be run on my two sounders, high on one mfd and low on the other. This would be achieved by using a splitter that is now used for FCV800 (image attached).

Appreciate your help in advance

No, that won't work. Wouldn't be able to use that splitter either. The only transducers that will work are found in the Accessories section of this page: https://furunousa.com/en/products/gp1971f

I have been told it will work. Setting on the mfd 1 is set to b175h and setting on mfd 2 will be b175l. Dealer installing in a couple of weeks, I’ll let you know.

You can try it. The B265LH not a supported transducer and the LF side has a different frequency range:
B265LH = LF is 42-65kHz, HF is 130-210kHz
B175L = 40-60 (so mostly within the band but the B265 LF-side goes to 65)
B175H = 130-210 (so that one may work because same exact freq range)
