1 M or m â prefix designating a number in thousands (not to be confused with SI prefix M for mega-or m for milli).
There are two types commonly referred to as: 'Shallow' and 'Deep' water. The differences are not only in the Frequency but also in the Beam Width and they are as follows: 'Shallow' water HST-WSBL 106-72 Transducer will operate on 2 frequencies on the HDS models: 200 (20Â°) & 83KHz (60Â°). 'Deep' water HST-DFSBL 106-77 Transducer will operate on 2 frequencies on the HDS models: 200KHz (12Â°) & 50KHz (35Â°).
This allows fish arches and fine detail to be shown. Frequency Most Lowrance sonar units today operate at 192 or 200 kHz (kilohertz), with a few using 50 kHz. There are advantages to each frequency, but for almost all freshwater applications and most saltwater applications, 192 or 200 kHz is the best choice.he frequencies most often used by Lowrance in our sonar are 192 - 200 kHz (kilohertz); we also make some units that use 50 kHz. Although these frequencies are in the sound spectrum, theyâre inaudible to both humans and fish.
