ohhhh boy yep interference with other flashers will drive you nuts and also make it hard to see the fish. Been there and experienced that very issue several times last year.
We currently have Vex-12s super units but have now and awaiting arrival this week via UPS the Humminbird Ice-55s. I like the zoom feature on these along with the other features these units offer. Maybe not in the price rance of what the OP desires. Also based on research we've done Humminbird flashers operate on a different frequency than Vexs and Marcums thus no interference from these units. However, if other Humminbird flashers are being used in close proxmity to you, you could have interference and these units do come with adjustments for interference.
If you take your time and look on Al Gore's internet via e-bay you can find some smoking deals on flashers/finders and for me if I don't have to pay shipping or sales tax just wait a few days and its only the listed price of the unit I'll pay, well being C.H.E.A.P. I'm all over it of course after fully researching the deal I find because as with anything on the internet thoroughly research and we've gotten some deals on reels/rods/lures on e-bay and not bidding just finding an e-bay store that is buy now.
Its all in what you desire and another suggestion is go out with someone who has a flasher or finder and then compare and decide what you'd like and namely thats in your price range.
Good luck to the OP on his endeavor.
