may have an issue with interference. Even with synchronization activated the noise
from other nearby vessels may cause noise.

The

and echo sounders) on your own and/or other vessels. The filter also suppresses noise
from your propellers, and from other similar noise sources. The
effective if you are bothered by strong noise or interference, especially from your own
