Talked to my friend Ron on the phone to figure out when we could get out for a search. He asked if I still had one of the latest and greatest detectors I bought? I explained yes, still taking these units out to the parks to learn better. He said Ron if I were you and I've seen how well you do with the Sovereign, this detector should be the only one you use, we are running out of good weather. LOL he did make a great point and good advice. HH Ron
