Hi Abra,

I'm afraid I vote for a ghost image. The reason is the perfect symmetry between left and right views with respect to positions along and across track in the DeepView image. The DrDepth image seems to be somewhat misleading since the symmetry disappears.

I think you must blame the long cable for the ghost image. My 50 m cable has fooled me on a couple of occasions in a similar way.

Regards,
Rickard

I think it's the right one since it's much clearer. Don't become disappointed if you find two cannons!  :)

I post an image that shows a really strong ghost effect. I used 100 m with the cheapest ethernet cable I could find in one of my first towfish experiments three years ago. The ghost image is caused by crosstalk in the unshielded cable. I was surprised by the image quality and this encouraged me to go on with ethernet cable tests.

Roddy,

I use the most shielded stranded patch ethernet cable I could find. It has individually foil shielded twisted pairs and an outer braided shield. There is almost no crosstalk at all in 50 m with this cable.

Regards,
Rickard

I often get ghost images in shallow water at 455khz, especially in areas that have a soft bottom that doesnt reflect well and the hard returns show up on both sides. 

I would asssume it may also have to do with the beam overlap under the transducer.
