Ok, if u r going down this route ,the sov gt is great, but if u want the depth and an lcd display u could try the explorer 11.

If it is any help we could meet up sometime and u could have a go on my ex 11 just so u can get an idea of the weight, which can b an issue over long sessions!

Sorry Rhys I was being flippant, Yes your right the stronger the signal the closer or larger the target will be. The control box can be mounted in three way, hip mount, near and under the hand grip or at the top behind the arm rest. and yes the positioning is for balance. The top position was always my favourite position.
The add is from Detecnick's own website  and the page address is:-

Congratulations Rhys, you wont regret it, they can be a little frustrating at first but you'll get the hang of it in no time. My only advice would be to use in manual sens not auto and don't turn it up to high, 12 o'clock is powerful enough. Good luck with it. Wink
