    GT Meter on an XS?

    Can someone confirm that the GT meter does NOT work on the older Sovereigns? I've heard the GT requires slightly more voltage? If it did work that would be a nice alternative choice for me instead of a used DTI II which seem to be hard to find. Thanks, Jeff

    My current detector is a Minelab Elite. Can someone help explain the iron null feature on the sovereigns for me? I currently run in disc mode, slight threshold, no notch and the disc as low as it will go. I understand that when the coil is over an iron object, the detector will "null" (I'll...
