A few months ago I switched to a Etrac and shortly after starting to hunt with it, installed a SEF 10x12 coil and went to a SEF 6x8 for trashy sites. I have been impressed with the stability of the SEF coils, and the Etrac in general.
I have noticed that there are times that the audio starts with a good signal and then kind of ends with a "thunk". I have thought that the audio was possibly indicating the presence of an iron target masquerading as a good target, but it doesn't seem to happen all the time. Today for instance, I dug a couple pieces of deep iron that were reading CO 40+ with FE in the 18-20 range, and the signals were pretty stable conductive high tones with none of the "thunk" at the end...
I passed on multiple targets that were deeper that had a pretty solid High Conductive sound but had this unmistakable "thunk" at the end of the signal.
I don't know anyone else with an etrac to listen to, so was wondering if any other etrac users had experienced any similar audio and could log in to let me know what it is indicating....
