Wesmar's Scanning Sonar Has Long Range For Greater Efficiency The WESMAR SS170 long- range scanning sonar is said to provide the ultimate answer—ef- ficiency—to the steadily rising fuel costs that now comprise 50 to 60 percent of commercial fish- ing overhead. By scanning around the vessel and eliminating costly guesswork, the SS170 can help fishermen find fish every trip, choose the greatest concentra- tions, and set their nets for the maximum catch. The unit's 4,800- foot range lets the operator search a huge area around the vessel, spotting fish that would not be seen on a conventional echosounder. Targets are displayed on the easy-to-read, 10-inch (254-mm) cathode ray tube. Modulated sweep display enhances target identification dramatically. Auto- matic sector scan will automatic- ally and continuously scan any selected partial sector or sur- rounding water, essential when setting the net or scanning ahead during dragging operations. The precise tilt angle control lets the fisherman set the exact sonar beam angle successful in previ- ous trips or adjust the tilt quickly.
