Title: minelab sovereign elite Post by: congerman on February 16, 2013, 12:37:22 AM After looking around at detectors I decided that the minelab sovereign elite fitted exactly what I was looking for in another machine so bought one got it Wednesday and it was raining all day ??? so Thursday went to A local beach 5 mins away I don't bother with this spot because there are people on every week with detectors but it has good sand to test my machine on took x4 different coins + A bullet and some scrap to try the machine out first spot was down at low water were the black sand shows I buried the different coins as I was studying the signals then moved to the top of the beach to dry sand and did the same I soon was able to distinguish the tones and after an hour decided to give it A go at the top in the dry sand as the tide was well flooding by now at first I was digging most of the signals to make sure if it was what I thought it was I am well impressed with the machine,,
I had x6 good signals (cash register pings) I call them ,, x1- 2p from about 8 inches deep x1 5p 10 inches down and x2 small press studs of clothes one of these was about 10 inches down they were that small it took me ages to find them even with the pro pointer ,, was out again today at A different beach with eddythefly (GEOF) he had x1 bullet , I had about x6 bullets x1 dog tag x1 Teaspoon x1 laser pen ::) and A few ring pulls Great to be out in the sunshine for A change ;D Title: Re: minelab sovereign elite Post by: Roman (Ray) on February 16, 2013, 12:43:31 AM keep at it mucker and you.ll soon crack it..all the best with the new machine mate !
