Therefore, the treasure hunter is more likely to detect targets normally
missed.
The most important factor when comparing detectors, with and without
BBS circuitry, is that BBS-based detectors have the ability to hunt even in
the most mineralised areas at maximum performance without the need
to manually ground-balance the detector.
As soon as the Sovereign Elite is turned on and swept across the ground,
the ground mineralisation is analysed and then compensated for by
the microprocessor. This ensures that the Sovereign Elite can locate
targets deeper than other units, due to its automatic
compensation of changing ground conditions.
One of the major overall benefits of BBS technology is that although it
automatically operates at 17 frequencies, all at the same time, it is
actually easier to use than most of its competitors. Because it is
microprocessor controlled, all you need do is set the threshold,
discrimination and volume, and the rest is done for you automatically.
A BBS detector will penetrate more deeply, discriminate more
accurately and can be used in even the worst ground conditions. The
bottom line is that when using a Minelab detector such as the
Sovereign Elite with its BBS technology, you will find more good targets
than you will with most other detectors.
