In fact, the system provides high detail accuracy for all types of fishing. Compared to similar technologies, this Chirp scans the frequencies using a high-level transducer and through data processing, in order to ensure a unique precision in detecting shoals.
For maximum convenience, this 1 Kw technology is integrated into the main unit of Helix 12. While other devices capture only some frequencies, Humminbird Helix 12 Chirp offers the angler a complete range of features right from the start, with the chance to select the start and end frequencies for maximum control. Helix 12 Chirp provides a more detailed image of the fish, a remarkable clarity, a greater separation of the targets, a reduction of noise, unparalleled accuracy and greater depth.
