Hi everyone,
This is something that I strugle to understand...I will take as an example the Deus' use in saltwater beaches to make my question clear:
I often read statements like "when you GB at salt range (e.g ground phase 27), you can eliminate the salt signal, but you also eliminate any tiny gold that reads in the same salt range, like most micro jewelry"
So I understand that even if I can flip on the Salt Mode GB (0-30) on the Deus to eliminate the salt reading, I will also lose the tiny gold that reads in the same range like salt...
To also quote a very experienced member's post: "There are many items in the ground that generate a signal that is the same as the ground reading and so are missed by tuning out that ground signal"
In my inland hunting areas, my ground phase reads 75.....so I'm setting my GB manually at 75...does this means that every target that reads 75 will also be missed, or the GB scale is independent from the targets discrimination scale Even if my ground was soft with a ground phase reading let's say 88...does this means that by GB manually at 88, I will also eliminate coins that read at the same 88?
Can someone explain this to me?? GB is in fact discrimination....how this ground discrimination connects with target discrimination
Thanks
