I'm not sure if this is any help but I do the same thing with my E-trac. I run a Sovereign programme with good effect (have found four so far but still a great deal of luck). The numbers come up as 12 31 for a full Sovereign and 12 21 for a half. You can programme it and save it into a screen by using your cursor. I don't keep my pattern too tight just in case...

Thanks for those E Trac numbers Reubin.
I reckon I would usually dig those numbers and also imagine sov's would make a bit of noise in your phones so I guess my coil has yet to pass over one. That's my excuse for not finding one anyway. :-)
