Sorry I screamed. very basic in my opinion; Go back to where you had pings for 2 hours, You don't need experts to determine this, JESUS! If you drop the reciever deeper at the exact spot you had pings previously and , perhaps go even deeper, and cannot get the pings at that location get again then the pinger is dead. Then start mapping. I am just saying that you don't need 4 days, WHY 4 DAYS?

You don't 'hear' pings Cirque du So-What Apr 2014 #15

"Hear" is a loose term. It's still a sound wave. Glassunion Apr 2014 #16

Yep Cirque du So-What Apr 2014 #17

Quite true. nt Glassunion Apr 2014 #19
