DUAL SPECTRUM CHIRP SONAR
WHAT IS
DUAL SPECTRUM CHIRP SONAR?
CHIRP stands for “Compressed High Intensity Radar Pulse.” That’s a fancy way of saying it can show you fish that other forms of 2D sonar can’t. How’s that? CHIRP scans the water for fish similar to the way the seek function on your truck’s radio scans the airwaves for FM stations. By covering a wide range of frequencies, CHIRP produces more accurate, more detailed returns of fish, structure and the bottom.
HUMMINBIRD CHIRP
All forms of CHIRP are not created equal. Some competitive CHIRP technologies barely qualify for the term, using a subpar transducer or limiting you to a narrow band of frequencies. But Humminbird’s Dual Spectrum CHIRP gives you full spectrum capability, plus the power to select your own start and end frequencies. Humminbird also utilizes a proprietary, best-in-class transducer designed and built to maximize fish detail, as well as coverage area.
CHOOSE YOUR BEAM
WIDE MODE
Search deep and wide. For watching your lure while vertical jigging, or gaining a more expansive view in shallow water, opt for Wide Mode.
NARROW MODE
Hone in on the small stuff that makes a big difference. Narrow Mode provides a precise perspective of the water below, helping you target individual fish, or identify fish hidden in structure and or tight to the bottom.
INCREDIBLE RETURNS
Separating fish from their habitat is the name of the game. And now, you’ll be able to more easily tell the difference between bait and game fish, and nearby structure and vegetation.
We’ve got bad news for your arch nemesis. Large game fish will show up on your screen as long, well-defined arches, for quick identification and accurate lure presentation.
Stop seeing things that aren’t there. A high signal-to-noise ratio translates to better defined targets, less clutter and greater certainty that what you’re looking at on-screen is legit.
BEGIN YOUR SEARCH WITH
BETTER HARDWARE
Don’t let the pretty pictures fool you. Our proprietary, Low Q CHIRP transducer is the real hero. Using more coverage to detect fish, structure and the bottom, this workhorse makes possible the highly defined fish arches and clear target separation of new Dual Spectrum CHIRP Sonar. Ounce for ounce, pulse for pulse, it’s the best sonar in its class. No contest. Available on all select APEX, SOLIX and HELIX Series models.
Traditional transducers put you on hold, wasting valuable time “charging up” before each sonar pulse. Humminbird CHIRP transducers are engineered to minimize charge time, firing off more pulses in a given period of time. More pulses mean more information and improved target separation.
