I got a question I'm just putting a new HDS7 on my boat I will run off a transom mount transducer when running across the lake or trolling with big engine but want to run off trolling motor built in universal sonar when using trolling motor. I know I can switch cables back and forth. I was wondering if anyone knows of an A-B switch similar to hummingbirds that will work for lowrance. It would have to be after market as lowrance dose not have one. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

Lowrance has a black box, that will do the trick

Check out the Lowrance 0046-26 (SB-9BL). Connects 2 blue transducers to one Sonar Head. They don't give them away but will solve your problem. Likely you will require a transduer extension from the trolling motor. 99-93 (15') or the 99-94 (20')

I use one of these to switch between two transducers on the back of the boat and it works great. Not cheap though.
