[QUOTE="Heatho, post: 122557, member: 487"] Setting 4 is probably way to high MB, start off on Normal 2 or even as low as 1, adjust threshold to the 3rd LED, hold the detector up a little and do the noise cancel (repeat if still erratic, repeat 2 or 3 times until it settles down) then do a ground balance. The machine should now sound a bit like a mosquito which is correct operation. The threshold will waver slightly which is quite normal but it should not be obviously erratic. When detecting listen for the slightest repeatable change in the the threshold sound and swing slowly over the ground. If this setup doesn't work there is probably something wrong with the machine. Only issue I've had with mine so far is 1 pin came out of the armrest, Minelab sent me a new pin the day I called them, wit arrived 2 days later and I installed it myself to save sending the unit off. 1 time detecting it sounded like a siren, took 3 noise cancels to settle it down and it was fine.
