    Coil change

    I have an Excalibur 1000 coil that the cable has split. Where I'm cutting the cable leaves enough length that I can use it on my Sovereign GT. Can this 4 wire coil be used with the GT and if so anyone know what the pin #/wire color set up? Thanks Randy

    single tone adaptable

    Can you adapt a GT for single tone audio output instead of multi tone output? I use multi tone but certain situations it would help by having single tone available. My old original sovereign had this capability and I used it often. good diggin...........................randy
