Hi- Can anyone tell me what would cause the needle on a meter just start bouncing all over the place just when sitting still. No metal around. Starts doing it shortly after I turn the detector on. Checked all the connections and can even turn down the sensitivity to nothing and same thing. Also chatters. It's a Garrett Master Hunter CX. I can still detect with it but it's hard without the meter and constant chattering to know if I have something. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Chuck

Garrett Master Hunter CX meter chatter problem

Static electricity....here's how to fix it. Get a sheet of anti-static stuff used to throw in a dryer to prevent static cling. Rub it on the interface of the analog meter, and the activity should stop. The same thing happened to me several years agoe....

Good suggestion John. Static electricity ( the worst kind ) can be a real bugger.
