replacing an FCV 1000 with TZT3

[passionemarina]

Traying to replace an fcv 1000 with the new TZT3 but asking if I can keep for the moment the two single frequencies transducers (50B-6B for 50Khz and 200B-5S for 200Khz) That I have now, adapting the connections in some way. Thank You

You would connect the transducers to the DI-FFAMP and then connect the DI-FFAMP to the TZT3.

Thank you for your help, but it seems a very expensive manner to adapt cheap transducers, such as 200B-5S and 50B-6B (both 1 kw each), as the DI-FFamp costs more then 2k.

Moreover, I don't need 2 or more kw of power the DI-FFamp delivers, as I don't fish in deep bottom seas, therefore it will be a waste of money.

It would be more reasonable to change the transducers.

Is there any other cheap way to connect my transducers to TZT3? Could it be using the MB 1100 matching box?

Thank you for your time

You could wire them to the MB1100 matching box and then use the provided 10 pin to 12 pin adapter that came with the MFD to connect those transducers. Because this combo will not be listed in the user setup for the transducer you will need to pick something like the B260 (526TID-HDD) as the model type.
