I can guarantee you that my transducer is not the airman
While most lowrance ducers are 83/200 their is an option to purchase 50/200.
I also believe the standard lowrance transducer is not as capable as aftermarket transducers (like airman). If they were, no one would pay extra for the airman.
That being said, even my standard transducer has different capabilities in each mode. I'm going to have to evaluate those differences by running side by side.
Truth be told; I don't even run my lowrance 50/200 transducer. I have become so dependent on the down scan/side scan; that this is all I have been using on my screen. I normally split my screen 3 ways. (Gps mapping, sidescan, downscan).
I'll have to play with the screen while guys like Mako Mike catch fish for me
