Good comment, Duncan.  I intend rotating the 45° coverage through
a full 360°.  Using multiple transducers allows for more frequent
pings and (I think) will provide greater resolution.

My goal is to use four transducers to
cover a 45° arc.  Here are my problems/questions:

Umm, just a thought but how about using one sonar unit mounted on a servo
and pinging it over the 45 degree arc? Controlling (positioning) the servo
is dead simple with the new lib...

Best, Duncan
