I got a Safari

[Elton]

Thanks for shot of the cover..Yea I want one of those for sure................ I hope I can do half a well with the Safari as you do the E-Trac...... I know you have truly learned the operation of that detector !!.

Elton I thought you already had a safari or etrac? I know I seen your handle Elton somewhere on the boards. im just curious is all you will love this machine. what machines have you used in the past.

I have very bad hearing and have trouble trying to tell what is good sound and bad sound. Is the low sound always iron, and the two tone, like wilt-wilt a coin? My Safari sounds like it has 20 sounds, how many dose it have ? Thanks Flintstone

I've been reading up on the Safari and see you mentioning slower swing speed for the Safari. How would you estimate "your" swing speed rates in seconds (slow, medium, fast) and about how wide a sweep? I swing my old whites probably a wide 120 degrees at 2-3 seconds a swing general searching listening for threshold variance.

3 4 seconds to a swing left and same for return worked good for me

I have used all Minelab coin rated machines except a 3030 at one time or another.. My favorite that I have used is the Etrac.

I traded the Safari due to shoulder issues....

Cool! Thanks for the info! I've seen some good deals on lightly used one. debating on one of these or the vx3
