Hi Erik
I sent an email off to Minelab in Australia asking them to explain to me the reasoning behind the ferrous 12 issue and so far I havent had any response. I'll let you know if I get anything. I dont have an E-Trac yet but am hoping to get one. I use my Explorer SE in ferrous tones so Im just really curious why they didnt expand the ferrous range like they expanded the conductive range.

they did waht they did and then get back to us. Giving you an answer like doesn't give you much confidence in the company!

they are not sure of all that it will do or what all the best settings are for every situation. I am glad to have the ET and I am REALLY glad that all of you are here and posting what you figure out.
I guess Minelab could have stalled the release of the ET and done more and more testing and more tweaking but, being a business, maybe they were in a place where they had to get some return for all the resources that poured into development of the ET and are, for better or worse, counting on us to help figure the detector out.
I say let me have it !!!! So far I like it, I like it a lot and I really think that in some months the ET will be truly incredible. Some seem to have already developed a "knack", I am still trying. It certainly seem's to be more stable at higher sens and more able to handle faster swinging.
Yeah, ML could have written a better manual but we have what we have. I bet Andy's book will help answer some more questions, but not the one that asks why the mapped to 12. ML is going to have to answer that one and for some reason they do not seem to be ready to do it, or no one has asked the right person.
Maybe I will try making a call to Australia this PM...
Now, I am off to the park!

I think if Sandy was still there we would get some straight answers as she used the Minelab detectors.
