Greetings,
I'm a relatively new boat owner, a 19' fiberglass over wood open skiff, 40 hp outboard. Last weekend I installed a Navman Fish 4500. To me the transponder seems abnormally loud. While at idle, one can hear a very noticable, "pop-pop-pop...." from the transponder. I realize it's sending out a signal (sonar ?) to read the depth, but just how loud, or prominent should the sound be. I frankly thought it would be essentiall silent.
Thank you in advance for any help.
