A lot of people are having problems with the Apex being unstable at sens levels above 1-3. I was told on a forum that it was me and not the Apex and i just did not know how to run the detector. After 40 plus years detecting and owning almost everything made i assured them it was not me.
After following multiple forums and FB groups i found that many are having issues with what seems like EMI but is not.
After talking to Garrett i found out some of the coils are bad. Also some have not gotten the coil plug screwed into the box good. And my issue was bad software which was fixed by doing a simple factory reset. Even though no settings had been changed on mine, all i did was power it up out of the box and it went nuts as the default sens is 2 bars less than max and i could only settle it down if i went down to 3 bars total sens. Others i talked to could not get theirs past 1 sens.
Posting this info to help others struggling with a faulty Apex.
