I have a minelab excal and I am always having to adjust the knobs at the beach. What are some tips to learning this machine. I get to the point I hate to take it out due to frustration with constant noise adjustment. Are there settings to keep it on? I like to go in the water and on dry sand. Appreciate any pointers you guys might have.
 
I'm a bit worried with this problem as you do have one of the machines (Sovereign being the other) that needs almost no adjustment.
If its still under warranty I would send it back for a check up...if its some years old I wonder if the battery pack is on its way out. They can apparantly take a full charge but won't take the load after a short time of use.
If it was a Sovereign or its been used hip or chestmount much I would try flexing the lead to the coil just in case thats starting to break.
 
I just bought it last year and haven't used it much because of the pain that it is. I may send it to Minelab and have it checked out.
Thanks for the help.
