Amazon says this is frequently purchased together with LSS-2 HD package. That pkg already comes with transom mount transducer. Why purchase this too?

It is needed to provide the traditional sounder portion of the total Structurescan display capability. The other transducer is the LSS-2 Skimmer, and it actually has two different transducers built into it - the downscan imaging transducer & the sidescan (split left and right) transducer. For full Structurescan capability, all three types of sonar signal are required.

According to the product details. The transducer and installation kit included I'm not sure how long transducer cable is. However , it had this installed in ,My cc 19' pro line without any problem

It does not come standard. You have to purchase the structure scan transducer and interface separately. It's best to purchase the HDS 7 with the structure scan as a package deal. HDS 7 Gen 2 cost about $870. If the structure scan is purchased with the unit, it cost about $1250.

Yes it requires the structure scan transducer for side and down scan. The regular transducer 200hz is just for regular sonar images.

When I bought mine it came with transducer and harware, mounting brackets and wiring for power. It was ready to install, you need nothing else.

Yes the transducer is included and if I recall correctly it also has about 20' of cable attached as well. I know the connecting cable comes as standard equipment but it may be shorter.

If you are referring to the Lowrance HDS 12 Gen 2 Touch unit, the installation manual available on line at the Lowrance site, on the page for this unit, under the DOCUMENTS section, indicates (page 20) the unit is designed to work with the LSS-2 HD transducer. The unit will work with the older LSS-1 model, but you have to buy an adaptor cable.

Yes my husband says yes the mounting bracket for the structure scan transducer does come with this package.

If you bought the same unit I did the 83/200 didn't provide the downscan and HDI promised. Had to buy the HDI transducer after the fact. I called Lowrance and asked them about this. The guy I talked to said some people don't want the HDI downscan feature of the unit. I said really? Why would you buy an HDI finder if you didn't really want it? Anyway, no. Hook up the new transponder to your unit and keep the old one if you plan on adding another finder to the bow on a trowling motor etc... I'm thinking of selling the 83/200 on e-bay or my local shopper for the ice fisherman. The angle of the transducer is also important. need to play with it a bit. great unit, enjoy!

I went with the HD transducer right off the bat after reading about it. Sent in the one that came with the unit unused and paid about $85 for the upgrade. So I never saw how the non-HD looked.

It's definitely a transom mount and you need to make sure that you have sufficient room next to your regular transducer and your prop or you can get some nasty interference.

Mine came with a transducer and it was not a problem. I think they all come with a transducer as I have installed several different sonar units on my boats over the years and all came with a transducer. This is a very nice unit and I used it all last summer with good results. Of course, it can't make the fish bite. lol

Herb, this product is fine for it's intended use. Apparently you thought it included sonar. So, assuming you get a sonar, this is my experience: My old Coastal Navigator transom mount transducer, with some persuasion, fit inside a PVC coupler. Shaped to the hull and attached with GOOP and then filled with mineral spirits (as I recall), it worked just as well as when mounted outside the hull. Wire runs down thru the coupler cap and is sealed.

It includes the transducer . I did not measure it but it seemed to be about 15 feet long . The thru hull transducer is always a much better choice for depth readings at higher speeds . My transom mount stops reading at 20mph . By the way the satellite receiver is also included .

I have an HDS-7 Gen2 and purchased this transducer and it works fine. Hope this helps.
