RE: [CA] RV Transducer(s) placement help

Update:

I have been using the system with the RV220 in this location:

http://forum.raymarine.com/attachment.php?aid=1623

and everything works as expected, I can hold bottom at approx 22-25kts in flat conditions. Thanks for the help in mounting location selection.

I do have one additional question. The boat came with an E66056 (airmar B744v) I noticed that when going offshore I lose bottom at around 600ft with the rv220. I would think the b744v would have greater depth range with 50khz selected. On the phone I was told there is a adapter to connect the transducer to one of my Axiom pro units (12" rvx and 12" S) but it would have to be connected to the rvx port. This does not make sense to me why would I not connect to the 1kw port?

Thanks
