Hi Jim, What side scan are you using and how much etc. I was looking at
them in a magazine and thinking they are what we need but don’t know if there
is a reasonably priced one. Chs Hugh From:

tds.net Hi Alan, I was concerned about that myself, but will have a side scan
sonar aboard and the side benefit is a distance to the bottom reading. While really not a depth gauge as the reading will vary with
bottom structure and depth, it should let me know quickly how well I have
achieved neutral bouyancy. I'll let you know how well it works when I'm done testing. Best Regards, Jim K On Sat, Mar 6, 2010 at 2:21 PM, Alan James <alanjames@xtra.co.nz> wrote: Hi
psubbers, Went
for a couple of dives yesterday (scuba). The last being in an old quarry where
the visibility was bad &
when I hit a thermocline it just went black. I didn't know wether I was going
up or down half the time. Was
thinking from this experience that I'd like a digital depth readout in my sub
in fine increments of at least 6 inch depth deviations.
Is there anything like that out there that would be suitable? And if so how is
it set up. ie. is the pressure sensor outside the
sub with wires through the hull or is it on the inside threaded into a hull
penetration or something. Any
thoughts on anything that might be adaptable to this purpose would be
appreciated also. Regards
