I’ve been messing around with an SP100 Sonar (from Vexilar) for my undergraduate thesis. I repurposed some old code and created a python interface for communicating with the sonar. Thought this might come in handy for someone:

Very cool, Paul. Thanks for sharing. In your experience, how well does this device work and what sort of range do you normally get?
