The transducer mounted to the hull of your vessel serves as both a "speak-
er" when transmitting, and as a "microphone" when the echo sound is re-
ceiving. Similar to the way a flashlight focuses light, most of the sound
from your transducer is focused downwards with a smaller amount going
out to the sides. The amount of focusing of the sound beam is expressed as
a "beamwidth".
