Default Running Both Lowrance and Humminbird

Hey Guys, currently I am running 2 Helix's. One with the HDSI Transducer and one with the basic skimmer. I recently just purchased a Lowrance Elite with the Active 3 in 1 transducer. Question is, can I mount both of the side scan ducers on the same transducer board? Curious if i would get interference. I purchased the Lowrance for the maps I can get up here in Canada, but wanted the sonar option as well. Thanks Guys!!!!

Interference is possible since they use some of the same frequencies. They both use multiple frequencies.

You may get around this by selecting different frequencies in the setup. I know this is possible with Humminbird, but don't know for sure with Lowrance. I'd be surprised if Lowrance didn't have this option.

Just set the frequencies different and you should be good to go.
