Sonar Troubles

I also have the Eagle Cuda 168 and a FC4. You should be able to change the depth range manually using the settings. If you leave it on auto, it usually figures out the best depth range to display, but if not you can manually select the range. See the following link to download the manual for the Eagle Cuda 168:

Or the direct link to the file itself is:

The manual says (on page 35) that you can push the menu button until it reads "Range Zoom", then push the down arrow to "Manual", then press "Menu Up" to display the Range size menu. From there you can select 10, 20, 40, 80, 160, 320, or 640 feet.

If you're in 15 feet of water, selecting 0-20 feet will make the bottom 1/4 of the screen dark (because it's below the bottom of the lake). If you select 0-10 feet range, then you'll only see the top 10 feet of the water column. Of course if you're in the 0-20 feet range and the water you're in is only 10 feet deep, half of the screen will be black.

I haven't seen any problem with mine (although the only water I've taken it into so far has a max depth of only 10 feet).
