    I read where some of you ,rather what you want in a new Soverign. So, is there a new Soverign in the oven?? I have Whites,never used another brand. Came very very close to getting an ETrac a couple months back,but fought it off. I hunt mainly in fields, woods at old home/plantation sites. So...

    Trash,depth, signals...

    You guys really make it difficult for someone thats got a hankering for an ETrac, all your nice finds, its really great seeing this. If its not much trouble, wish you would talk about your site conditions etc. and explain how and why you decided to set your machine up the way you did, plus, a...

    Andy Sabisch

    had replied to a post concerning a web site to upload/share patterns and settings. His response, which was very logical, was because of the many variations of hunting sites,targets being acquired, would indeed make it a difficult undertaking, and in fact one such site had been created and...

    Garret Pro Pointer

    Unless Ive missed it, there is no way to turn the audio off on this pointer??? If there isnt, have any of you come up with a way to disable the audio or do you know if they can do that at the factory for you?? Thanks John

    Ground balance///

    I must be blind because I cant find anything in the manual,probably overlooking it. Im sure the ETrac is tracking the ground for the cancel of the ground. Is there a way to lock this in if you do not want continious tracking of the ground? I would like to know how it handles it, for instance...

    What if????

    I must be dumb, I dont even have this machine yet. Ok, this concerns the falsing on iron with the high, screaming at ya high pitch,ive read described. Falsing is caused by the wrap around effect, correct me if Im wrong. So, what if, you run up on a target and get this or a similar audio and you...

    another question,s

    As Ive stated before, Ive used Whites machines, concentric coils, very easy pinpointing. Could some of you guys talk a bit on pinpointing with the Pro Coil, and other coils you may have. I have to say, I will probably purchase the 8x6 SEF also. And since I brought up coils, I will more than...

    Machine operation selections and depth...

    Was curious how/if the more selectons you have made be they personal or operational does it have an effect on depth. I know some brand machines, seems the more filtering they do seems to have an affect on depth. Like anyone else, I want the depth, but more than that I like to look for...

    Pinpoint modes,

    With the machines I use now, I can pretty much size a target up, but the ETrac has two pinpoint modes. Which do you use??? And do you have to actually use the Sizing Pinpoint to size up a target?? Thanks John

    Reading the manual...

    I came across Minelabs suggestion of using ferrous tones for jewelry hunting, any of you guys tried this?? Also curious of what settings you use in a nasty site, full of modern trash and old iron, Fast on, Deep on/off??? From reading the manual, I see where you will have to really slow down when...

    quickmask

    I see you can create,edit and save different disc patterns, but Im curious if you keep your quickmask opened up for all metal, just to check targets as you are hunting? Or maybe vice versa, do you ever hunt in an all metal pattern and swap to a disc pattern to check out a target/response...

    So tell me...

    Ive had my foot on the brakes in a mad skid from buying an E Trac since Ive heard about the V back in December. So tell me how is the V on the silver. Is it a silver sniffin hound like the E Trac or SE Pro? If so are you using all three freqs? or just the lowest one?? I still have some time...

    There is a thread farther back in this forum where I asked the same question. Steve H. posted a quote from Carl Moreland giving facts on coil usage. Look further back and you will find it. HH John
