Hello everyone, I hope someone can help, or guide me a little in the right direction. I purchased a second hand Minelab Safari this past weekend and have been having a lot of fun with it, digging up all kinds of garbage, but still neat thinking that I may find something cool eventually. At first I think the detector was working correctly, not sure, but I don't remember it doing what it's doing just a few days later. When I start it up, and after I do the noise canceling and start to use it, it will make a lot of random noises while moving it back and forth. Sometimes it will give a noise like it has located something and most time you wave back over it and shazam.....nothing. No noise, nothing. When I do decide to dig, I will set it down and while digging, most times while sitting there it will make random noises as if I was still hunting. It's not near anything and I don't know why it's making all these noises. A lot of times while waving it in the air it will make noises as well. I have checked connections and so on, but I'm at a little lose, making I'm expecting it to be quiet until I find something and I'm being overly paranoid. I have been thinking of sending it off to be looked at, but it being mine for only a week, I hate to do that. I would just like to play with it. I hope someone can give me some insight or advice, thanks...Popsfixit
