How can I determine the ideal range for my Garmin radar antenna?

The ideal range for your radar antenna depends primarily on your boating habits. If you often navigate in crowded coastal areas or in low-visibility conditions, a longer range will offer you a greater safety margin. For offshore navigation, a long range is essential for detecting boats and adverse weather conditions at a distance.

What are the advantages of a CHIRP transducer compared to a traditional transducer?

CHIRP (Compressed High-Intensity Radiated Pulse) transducers use a wider range of frequencies than traditional transducers, offering higher resolution, better target separation, and a clearer view of the seabed. This results in better fish identification and greater accuracy in depth readings.

Is the Garmin fuel flow sensor compatible with all types of engines?

Garmin fuel flow sensors are compatible with most gasoline and diesel engines. However, it is important to verify specific compatibility with your engine model before purchasing. Consult the product documentation or contact us for advice.

How can I maintain the optimal performance of my Garmin radar antenna?

To ensure optimal performance, regularly clean the surface of the radar antenna with a soft cloth and fresh water. Avoid using harsh detergents or solvents that could damage the surface. Periodically check the cables and connectors to make sure they are clean and properly connected.

What does the MotionScope™ technology present in Garmin Fantom radar antennas mean?

MotionScope™ technology uses the Doppler effect to highlight moving targets, allowing you to quickly identify boats approaching or moving away from your position. This feature is particularly useful in low-visibility conditions or in high-traffic maritime areas.
