GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Like to keep your options open? Then Odom’s Echotrac™

MKIII is the echo sounder for you! It’s the only sounder on the market offering you the choice of either a high-resolution thermal paper recorder or a full-sized high bright color LCD chart in interchangeable module format.

When it comes from Odom, you know it’s durable, easy to use and backed by the best customer service in the industry. Both high and low channels feature frequency agility, enabling the operator to precisely match the transceiver to almost any existing transducer. This matching ability minimizes nearsurface noise caused by transducer ringing while increasing echo return strength.

The MKIII is capable of both shallow and deep-water operations and it features unsurpassed interfacing exibility with four serial ports and high speed Ethernet capability for maximum efciency. With all of these features in such a compact and portable package, it’s easy to see why the

Echotrac™ MKIII is such a respected echo sounder.
