Issue solved. Turns out when I updated the chart plotter, it disabled that
instrument. I turned them back on and all is good.
Something to keep in mind when doing updates.

I like the zerk fitting idea
You have to watch dBi vs. dB rated antennas. I don't consider the quarter-wave
or vertical dipole gain antennas really, but they both show 2 or 3 dB gain over
an isotropic radiator. The straight dB (sometimes dBd) rating assumes a dipole
or 1/4 wave and rates the gain over that.
Joe Della
Remember to calculate in the rated gain on the antenna. A simple 3dB
gain gives an effective doubling of radiated energy. With sufficient
gain, you can overcome much of the feedline loss.

The transducer is made by Airmar in New Hampshire. Airmar is owned by
Gemeco. You might contact their tech support. I've had the temp fail on
that model, but not all 3. the warranty is 2 years from manufacture, not
install. Sorry!

It could be the transducer, or it could be the display. If you know someone
with B instruments, remove your display and connect it to the other
person's instruments. If it still doesn't work, it's the display. if it
does, it's the transducer. Usually when the transducer paddle wheel isn't
clean,
Are there any VHF antennas with N connectors out there?

Mine is different. TackTick. It works through a magic box that talks to the
other devices. That box requires 12vdc, and the displays are all wireless.
Thought you might have a device/translator in the system that is required to
read the signal.

As detailed as I try to be, I know some pertinent information will be left off.
Such as the anemometer information still appears on my displays so I ruled out
the network backbone. I plugged the transducer cable into the opposite end of
the network and still just dashes. It's tri-data so
Mine shorted out last year, was a random occurrence. Had to replace all is
well again.

Three dashes mean, "no-signal". Check all your wire connections and make sure
the power and ground wires are clean and tight too. Something is probably
loose.

I probably should have been more clear. Consider using green grease.

Bob,
Is the boat in the water? If so, pull the transducer and clean it /clear it
thoroughly.
I didn’t have B, but that solution worked well on my old Raymarine system.
All the best,

My speed/depth/temp thru-hull is now showing dashes instead of values. It's
