    sovereign vs P.I.

    I plan to take my vacation on the east coast of Florida . Reading some of the posts, the area is considered to have been heavily sanded in for several years now. Would my Sov be adequate for the conditions or do I need to invest in a P.I. to get the deeper finds? I know I will be digging more...

    First outing with Sov

    I am posting this on other forums as well so I can get plenty of feedback. I took my new Sov to Melbourne this past week and while I am aware that it requires a learning curve all it's own, I would like to know if it is working normally. Nance Beach, Indialantic quick operating startup mode...

    battery charging follow up

    I called the dealer and explained the problem and they thought everything was normal but I took the charger and power pack to a local 'Batteries Plus' store and they tested them both and determined that the charger was defective but the pack was fully charged. But they did not have a 15 volt...

    battery charging

    O.K , I got the unit assembled. Now following up on other recent questions about charging: I don't know if minelab includes a fully charged Nihm pack or not, but I plugged it in, got a green light on the pack and a red light on the charger. So far so good. the manual says that a completely flat...

    Warranty Registration Completed

    Thanks guys for your encouragement and support. Warranty registration is taken care of on line and by mail. Just for anyone else's information: the detector serial number is the sticker inside the control box battery slot that, at least in my case, begins with the letter B. The coil number is...

    Sovereign GT serial number

    Well I lost my mind and spent far more than I had a right to in this economy, but after a great deal of reading books, forum posts, and mag articles and fighting with myself, I finally went ahead and got the sov gt. It arrived today and now I need to register the warranty. There are numbers : 1)...

    Sov GT hip mount

    I can not locate the post, but some time back there was a camera bag suggested as a good hip mount for the sov. I THINK it was Joe Patrick that used it but I am not getting any hits on the search feature.:look:

    cold weather

    How do the electronics of a Sov stand up in very cold or hot weather? The manual indicates that care must be taken when storing it in a hot location, but there are no other instructions that I have seen.

    meter attachment

    I have run a search and can not find any closeup illustrations on how to attach the digisearch meter to the top of the handle. I know there must be some. Thanks.

    sov gt at beach.

    I understand from reading the forum messages either here or on other sites that the sov is either dead to small gold or won't pick up anything under a gram. Well just what is the smallest gold that it will pick up? i.e.: toe ring? earring back? etc. I realize that depth and ground conditions are...

    Sovereign GT

    For quite some time there has been a lot of discontent with the quality and service coming out of minelab. I have noticed this mainly on the Excal posts. Has this been across the board on all their machines? I have considered buying a used (6 months) Sov. and would like to know if they have...

    Vaquero tthreshold

    I had been having some difficulty with falsing and ground balancing recently and sent of my Vaq for a complete checkup including coils. When returned they said that the GB was set 2 1/2 turns too far. They tightened up the knobs a little and checked out the coils or so they said when I called to...

    shielding

    Is there any type of material that can be used to fabricate an extra shield cover for the top of the coil? The idea being that if the magnetic field cannot extend upward then the energy must be forced downward achieving greater depth.
