Yes, another analog to digital thread

Anyone had any experience with actisense dst-2-c? Looking to convert the older Nav-5 depth/speed sensors into the 21st century that’ll work with a modern chart plotter? Looking to start a full electronics upgrade and starting here. Boat is a 1985 Beneteau.

The cost of the converter is close to the price of an Airmar dst800 that already outputs nmea2000 digital depth, speed, temperature.

Yeah I was looking at that too. But I was hoping to upgrade it while in the water. My other option is to just get a transducer with the new chart plotter. The only thing I’d lose is speed over water. I’d be money ahead and it would probably be more accurate.
