Excalibur Sensitivity Question

[ColonelDan]

Regardless of the terrain, be it sand or turf, my Excalibur will not chatter even when I turn up the sensitivity to 10. All else seems to work as far I can tell. I'm wondering however if I have a problem. I have a call in to Minelab and Kellyco but I haven't heard back yet. Has anyone else experienced this or have any thoughts on it?
Thanks

How does it perform? Let's get together this weekend and I will look at it and pick up that scoop...

How about in the saltwater.... every location is different and can give different results. I can run my just outside of auto 8am with no issues, until I hit the saltwater then I have to adjust as needed, Most of the time 10 am is fine unless I bump the coil... and this is the 10 inch coil, which does make a difference on how hot you can run the detector.

Your detector puts out a field the moment it is turned on... the field does not change at any time with any settings, all adjustments at the pod controls how much is feed to the electronics, it is analyzed by your settings then passed along to your ears.

OBN. What you say makes a lot of sense. Given the fact that you can turn yours up that high with no problems tells me I may be OK. I never tried to increase the sensitivity while I'm actually in saltwater. I normally leave it at 6. I'll try that next time. Thanks !!!

Interesting. I have to keep mine at about 5 standing in my backyard with no overhead power lines or targets near the coil.

That's one of the great things about the Minelabs, you can run them at max most of the time.

Is it quiet inside your house? In your backyard? In AM mode? AM would be be very telling, in difficult conditions. Would be strange if it is quiet in these scenarios.
