Raymarine forum

I presently have Ray e127 and e97 networked together with a Q2, Ray 130(?) GPS Antenna and a B744 transducer. All are shared between the two. I was thinking of upgrading to Axiom or Element. Questions are here:

If I upgrade to Axiom, can I use the chirp/downvision transducer combined with the new set up ALONG with the B744.?

I was also thinking of in networking the two. Have one as a Q2, with the B744, the other with the newer transducer and sharing the RayGPS antenna? Do able or do I need to run separate GPS receiver antennas? I am NOT a fan of the internal antenna.

Thanks!

Welcome back to the Raymarine Forum Tony,

Q1. If I upgrade to Axiom, can I use the chirp/downvision transducer combined with the new set up ALONG with the B744.?
A1. Yes

Q2. I was also thinking of in networking the two. Have one as a Q2, with the B744, the other with the newer transducer and sharing the RayGPS antenna?
A2. This is indeed possible. All data and resources is shared between Axiom/Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFDs via Ethernet communications.
