    The King of metal detectors

    I have been a sovereign user for a good 25 years. Tried many others but have continued to go back to my trusty sovereign. Mostly a beach hunter, I have waterproofed many sovs. There was an unbelievable amount of jewelry finds a good 10 - 15 years ago. Gold and silver were an easy target to...

    GT repair is expensive!!!!!

    Wow I could not believe my ears. Sent my GT into Kellyco back in September for repair. Unit would turn on but no threshold and coil was dead. I told them no rush, check it out when you can. So when they had a spare moment they would do exactly that. Curious as to what was going on after all...

    For Critterhunter

    Awhile back you were asking about building a small sniper coil. I had some spare wire around from an old project so I made this 5 x 9 double O. Video shows quarter nickel and dime. Very sensitive to small gold targets. I was suprised with the depth. http://youtu.be/GnPyv1ID5BQ

    Salt water mode ????

    Ok I've been lurking about and have a few questions. For some reason at this time of year I always get the itch to try something new. I have seen 1 video of how the CTX performs in salt water but it was like a pool of water with no motion. How does this thing do on a fast moving surf with wave...

    Need some help with a coil choice here....

    I was an original explorer owners when the machine first was released. Sold it off as I couldn't ever get it to to run consistantly at the beach. Heard that the original hollow coil was to blame so I thought I would come back for a second go at it. Just picked up one used minus a coil. I'm a...

    HelpPlease

    I am trying to figure out what Fisher machine this 5 Inch coil fits. Here's a shot of the cable end. All I own is a 1212X and I know it won't fit that. I'm looking to sell it as it is brand new. You can contact me at plumabob@yahoo.com. Thanks!

    Trying out a new waterproof box.....

    Waterproof to 50 feet according to the manufacturer. This box allows you to lay the large board flat where as the 1060 Pelican does not. A bit more room inside also as the corners are more square. http://www.camping4less.com/product.asp?specific=jpnmrrjmm

    Just heard back from ML about the Digisearch Meter

    This is what they told me.... Hi Bob, Yes the digisearch meter will work on previous Sovereigns, and coils. We cannot guarantee the functionality of aftermarket coils with the Digisearch, but the Minelab BBS/Tornado/Coinsearch coils will work fine. Kind regards, Nenad Lonic...

    Rick, got a Question for you.....

    I have a Digisearch meter from my GT that I am selling. I was asked by someone will it work on other Sovereigns like an XS2. I was told it would not, but when I tried it on my own XS2 it does indeed work. Can you shed a bit of light on this. Much appreciated, Bob
