Sea surface reflections
To reduce sea surface reflections, set the tilt angle to 5
° or higher, so the upper edge of the
sonar beam does not hit the sea surface, or adjust TVG. When a decreased tilt angle is
used, sea surface reflections cover a large area as illustrated below.

Wake
A wake produced by own ship or another ship can be a strong reflecting object when a
decreased tilt angle is used. As the wake appears as a thick continuous line, it can be easily
distinguishes from a fish school. A wake contains many air bubbles which attenuate
ultrasonic energy, making it difficult to sound beyond the wake.
