[QUOTE="Goldpick, post: 123614, member: 1695"] One thing you will notice on a FBS detector is how much slower your swing speed will need to be vs a single frequency VLF. Fast swing speeds may miss deeper targets, or give incorrect target ID's, so you'll need to slow right down over the target to get an accuate ID, especially in junky areas. Also try to hit the target at different angle to gain a more positive ID as well. Also remember your Safari will also run the same factory and aftermarket coils as the Explorer and Etrac, and if you don't already have one, get a high capacity rechargeable battery pack and charger from Minelab, as FBS detectors will chew through alkaline batteries at fair rate. :) [/QUOTE]
