If I am not mistaken,that Signum sold for approx.1200-1250 usd.So,having it for 875 usd is a good present before Christmas.No matter,buttons are Russian or English.There is very few information on them

In this case if someone wants to try Signum or any other machine from AKA,it is better not to wait for newer model as far AKA still didn't announce when it comes on market.Probably next spring or next summer,but not sure even at that term.
So,Signum has some differencies now.It bacame thinner due to the electronic box and it became removable as well from a stem.The stem has also changed bei

You show here not the stock shaft,but just an optional,which is called horizontally oriented and should say,that it costs more,than the stock one separately.There is also vertically oriented.The stock rod is S-type,very light,stable and comfortable for using.

I am not sure if I can advertise here too much.I will say only,that it is very beneficial to make deals with AKA because of the rate between our currencies.The rouble is very low now and AKA still didn't raise their costs.

I will add,that a new type of shafts is being produced with Signum and with removable electronic unit now.

Not about the models you meant above,but all the conditions for better detecting seem quite usual for a success with using of some AKAs there.Look at 2 of them.
Some more videos you can find if interested or ask members here about additional information.

Thanks for sharing and yes,those are the newest models,which AKA is planning to produce in some future,probably during autumn.
For present days,there are other well recommended models-Signum MFT 7272,Sorex Pro,Berkut 5,all fully English and with respective technical data.

Agree,that Signum is like a chess to play with and it is fun,that you all like to play with it.
And,I like those nicknames,you guys give-Mr.Siggy or Bad Boy.

Here is no chance to test AKAs on beaches near Moscow,but I will put a link from the most treasuring site in Russia concerning this point.Probably,using google you will find something interesting in that case or discussing it further.

That detecting data-sensitivity and depth are normally corresponding to capabilities of Signum.And,they could be even more if a soil allows because of not so mineralised.Very important thing,ronin12524 stressed-proper made GB option.

Hello to everybody!
probably not exactly about this thread sense,but I saw here some things,that I would like to pay attention and to point out.
So,the main thing,there is still no problem to deal with the main AKA in Moscow.The last deal and it was exactly Berkut 5 was delivered to Scott during 7 calendar days without any obstacles.
Next,of course,it is up to you,guys,but francly speaking,I d

Albert,
The RT-M mode corresponds to the RT channel as well.This mode is based on RT revealing of targets,but with an option to divide different conductive data and to sound with several tones.This mode is considered with the same depth as the RT mode.
But,having an ability to set the ST channel separately,it is also possible to reach the same depth with the ST channel.
You can compare these m

No,I do not,I suppose,that even AKA staff also does not know.Working is being continued now.And,francly speaking,AKA and users are really happy with that they have now.I know exactly,that some scintific researching always is supported by AKA and new patents received.

Yes,guys,
you are quite right,this is a new technology,never before used.Now,it is too early to discuss something if nobody is using it now.
The main task of this will be more comfortable and deep detecting in highly mineralised soils.This is not the only sweet to mention,we some more things to discuss in a future.

Albert,
let's say,that the main ID feature of all AKAs is the Short Tone channel.Of course,a length of the Real Time sounding could assist to understand,that mostly a big piece of iron is there as well as a big piece of non-ferrous also could be.There is a special algorithm,called S,switching of this could say more definately,that it is an iron or not.

O.K.,Bill,
I did not expect another thread on AKA items besides the only,where I usually post.Not complicated question.Yes,both channels like 2 detectors run simultaneosly.The Real Time channel is deeper and has 2 usefull aims.The first is to show,that a target is real,but the Short Tone (the ID channel) can not reach.It could be beneficial on treasure sites,where all targets are taken from an u

Albert,you are welcome whenever and whatever you ask.Answering to your last points,I suppose it is better to look through the manuals by yourself and to see all the differencies and capabilities.Both manuals are in English and both are replaced in the oficial AKA site.If you need links for those manuals,I will show then.
And the matter is,that when switching and using Sorex or Signum,you have li

I say,that not only Signum as a topline,but also Sorex Pro are the same or better from some points,than the best VLF machines at present.

If you do not mind,I will try to reply as a dealer of AKA for international deals.So,for the first question,the answer is-no.It does not matter if you use 1 frequency coil or the same size coil of 3 frequencies,the depth is the same using the same frequency.
And,yes,it is very comfortable not to change coils in fields,just touch a switcher and the detector will adopt to a new frequency.

Hello,Daryl,
this is not quite correct comparing.All x-terras are much weaker and simple things from all points of view.Considering the Real Time Channel in Signum and its depth,none of tracks or deuses can compare with.Considering a quantity of options in Signum,it is the same or more even to compare with tracks.
So my opinion is,that Signum is not less interesting,may be more,than deus or tra
