Notice that PDL radios have a channel 0 (zero), while ADL radios start channel numbering at 1 (one). Most users are setting Channel 0 (zero) and Channel 1 (one) to the same frequency on the PDL and then matching channel frequencies 1 through 15 on the PDL. (Not as shown above.)

FAST Survey / Carlson SurvCE Slow Averaging

If you are not using OBEN data, and very few people do, try un-checking “Log OBEN…” (as shown), it may speed up data collection substantially.
