Introduction

Congratulations on purchasing Minelab's Sovereign Elite detector. The
Sovereign Elite metal detector has been designed for general purpose
treasure hunting and is an improved version of the highly successful
Sovereign eXtra Sensitive detector which was voted America's "Detector
of the Year 1997" by Treasure Hunter's Gazette.
Sovereign Elite detectors use Minelab's unique Broad Band
Spectrum (BBS) technology, which enables the Sovereign Elite to
automatically transmit 17 individual frequencies at the same time.
The benefits of multiple frequency technology are numerous and include
increased depth, greater sensitivity to non-ferrous metal objects, increased
accuracy in discrimination, increased accuracy in target indication and
increased stability under most ground conditions.
Sovereign Elite detectors are designed to locate valuable metal objects
in high trash areas and in areas of either extreme salt or ground
mineralisation, conditions which are commonly encountered by
treasure hunters around the world. When using a single or
dual-frequency detector under these conditions, a treasure hunter may
experience a significant loss of detection depth and discrimination
accuracy. However, the Sovereign Elite, with its 17 individual
frequencies, compensates for interference from these ground
conditions and enables you to penetrate deeply and discriminate
accurately at full depth.
Sovereign Elite detectors are simple to operate, having very few
controls that require adjustment after they have been set. The
extremely advanced, yet simple-to-use, discrimination features enable
you to accurately select only the types of metal objects that you want to
find and to ignore the rest. The variable signal tone responses enable
you to accurately identify the object found before you recover it.
If you have any questions or comments regarding the Sovereign Elite or
any other Minelab product, then please feel free to contact us via your
local Authorised Minelab Dealer or write to us direct.
Minelab Electronics wish you every success in your treasure hunting.
