[QUOTE="Syndyne, post: 482324, member: 378"] Do you know if you're close to any 4G towers or aircraft flight paths, 22? If not, then I wonder if it's a channel issue with the Auto Tuning? We noticed last year in the Central West that the newly installed 4G microwave towers wreak absolute havoc on detectors when at full broadcast power. It can be unbearable some afternoons when the peak internet traffic starts. I also had an issue during last years trip where the SDC was very knock and touch sensitive on the coil and the threshold wouldn't settle down no matter what we tried. The little blue beast is well out of warranty these days, though I still let Minelab know and sent it back to them. They tested it for a week and couldn't replicate the problem (which was rather unusual?), however upon opening it up apparently they found that the two main pins that connect the PCB were loose. I've yet to test it out since it's been sent back, but will do so ASAP. Fingers crossed it's fine again as I'm looking forward to trying the new coils out on it at some point. Cheers, Shauno.
