Hey guys im brand new to detecting and I know i have a mountain to learn but the threshold on my minelab excalibur ii wont stop jumping it wont stabilise into a stable humming noise even tho its jumping it can still pick up metal objects.

Sensitivity might be set too high. Clive Clynick has some excellent books on Minelabs.

It would help if you told us what your settings are. It soulds like you have sentivity too high (too hot) but with out know what you have it set at it is hard to tell...
