I am looking at getting a sounder for helping find wrecks. One option that caught my eye is the sonarphone t box. I am already using the Navionics mobile app for gps and the sonarphone integrates to Navionics. Thoughts?

Scary stuff. What did the valve do once sheared off ?

I see. Would it not be prudent to drain such a cylinder before moving it ?

There was no cylinder cap ?

The ouc's report doesn't mean $hit. It is based only on hearsay.

Who said anything about making a habit of it?

Carlos' stage bottles were all similar looking. Some marked with a 70, the rest marked as oxygen 20. Before his Doria trip, all of them were filled with 50% and 100% respective to the permanent markings on the bottles. They were then analyzed and marked with duct tape as that was the routine...

This sure hits deep with a lot of people. Carlos was a good friend on both sides of the shoreline.

Is there a solenoid that turns on off the air? Sounds like something that could be hotwired to flow regardless. Electrical and pneumatic schematics would be helpful. ---------- Post added July 25th, 2013 at 10:06 PM ---------- What is the air used for?

Minets point. Pm or text me if you want to know how to find the line.

A couple of phone calls could have answered that question.

It's not too much of a wreck, but worth the swim/scooter with a proper gas plan.

No kidding. Most shops don't teach tables anymore. Wtf?

This was the shop owner and one of his owsi's. The problem comes when bragging about it on facebook. If someone wants to go and do it unsafely, thats their problem, but dont go and brag to your novice student audience saying that the dive was safe. ---------- Post added July 21st, 2013 at...

This was mentioned to the shop owner, who quickly proceeded to tell us to. " get off your high horse" It just seems that this person is sending out the wrong message. ---------- Post added July 20th, 2013 at 11:49 PM ---------- I seriously doubt there was any real planning that went into...

A few weeks ago myself and other local tech divers have run a line out to a wreck that us about 2000' or so from shore. Average depth for the dive is only 60' with a max depth of 80'. The entire run is in a very high boat traffic area, so we treat it as an overhead environment dive. The...

Testing the air going into the compressor wont tell you if your compressor is creating co.

Steel or aluminum cylinder? Filled with air or nitrox?

Usually the co analyzer is used before the dive. Who does the compressor belong to? Running a compressor cant be taken lightly, there is a lot involved, much of it can be life or death!

It would have to be a pretty sketchy air source to end up with that much water!!! Hopefully no pp blending would be taking place!
