3.19 How to Reduce the Short Distance Gain (TVG
Function)
When two schools of fish are of the same size, a school of fish in deep water is
displayed in a weaker color than that in shallow water because of the properties of the
ultrasound waves. The TVG function automatically adjusts the gain according to the
depth and the TVG level. So schools of fish of the same size but at different depths are
displayed in the same color.
