This points either to transducer placement or the angle the transducer is mounted. The transducer signal is not getting back to the transducer in the shallow water.

Reply: The transducer I am using is the one installed for the previous version of the i50 depth gauge. It works fine and consistently when in water over 7 +/- feet. Yesterday I snorkled down and looked at the transducer. It was covered with ablative bottom paint. I scraped off the paint but have not had a chance to test operation in shallow water. Does this sound like a likely fix to you? Thanks
