[quote idahoron]I use my 480 on both my pontoon and my FC4. I can see arches with both of mine but you have to play with the chart speed and ping speed. Also another thing that might be messing you up is your float tube might not be level.I cant see the transducer in the picture. The FC4 does have the tendency to lean back, your transducer could be angled a bit causing a line instead of an arch. The speed that your going over an object does make a difference but you should still see arches once and a while. I use my 480 on raw sonar most of the time. Ron[/quote]
I always put the transducer parallel to the hull (bottom) of the float tube. But if you say that the FC4 has tendency to lean back, it should mean that the transducer is pointing a bit uppwards when I'm fishing. To compensate this I should angle the transducer a bit down, am I right?
What are your chart speed and ping speed settings?
