    Potential Sovereign user questions.

    The last used Sovereign I got off this site said it had a new battery, but when I checked it out some company made some, but they use 3 of the 3.7 volt which is only 11.4 volts and not the 12 volts it needs, so maybe I can have one built with 10 of the rechargeable AA batteries which would get...

    Fisher F75

    The F75 for me is the best Fisher I ever had, the other Fisher seem to pick up too many rusty nails and other junk. I got one of the first F-75 that came with the stock coil and the small coil like it was 4X6 as I am not sure of the size. The stock coil got too many signals that covered up and...

    Potential Sovereign user questions.

    That's all possible as many used ones I bought had been moded which made them worst for me and would change them back to the way they came out from the factory before I would sell them again to people that want to try to see what a Sovereign could do. The mods as making it lighter and balance...

    Could this be a surveyor marker and mounted in cement? That was the first thing that come to me as I found one on land in a golf course I was detecting. The one I seen had geographical survey marker on it and do not remove and I believe it said something to do with one of the military service...

    Excalibur II squeals every 30 seconds or so

    Where I seen this problem more with the Sovereigns as many tried using 8 rechargeable batteries in the alkaline pack which is not enough voltage and seen after using for a while you get the low battery squeal, then maybe it worked ok for a couple minutes and do it again and get more frequent...

    Seated, Barber, Tokens and Toy Pistols

    Great to see you are out and detecting, plus some great finds again. The secret to any detector is knowing it well which it looks like you know it well with these finds you are finding. I bet many people and their detectors been over these same spots, some of my better and older finds was in...

    Excalibur II squeals every 30 seconds or so

    Possibly the low battery alert your hearing, so is the battery fully charged$$ or the battery pack bad. Will it make the noise only when swinging the coil, they try it while you hold the coil in the air away from any metal. If by swing the coil is when the noise comes and go it could be a bad...
