Hi all,

Sweep the blue thing too.

Only issue to me is weight. It stops me to put a larger coil on it.

The iffy signals are indeed proof of an existing, very deep target. the depth being in relation with it's conductivity/shape.

I recently found a 22 ct pendant this way. It was 5 to 6" deep.

I also use a Sovereign GT, depending on the parts of the beach I hunt. The GT in stock configuration is deeper than the Quattro, but the Q finds smaller gold.

If I ever sold my quattro, the reason would be too heavy for me old bones.

Your right they are heavy i forgot about that........

I have a couple a safari's. One thing that some user's of the quattro get confused about is that the recovery speed is actually faster than most think. What is slow is the display changing from one target to the next if the targets are very close to each other. But if you listen to the sound, it will beep on targets that are very close to each other. If you lay 2 dimes on the ground several inches apart and quickly swing the coil over both, it will beep on both targets but the display may not change it's reading unless you slow down. With my safari, I learn to quickly lift the coil about a foot or so to clear it if I am hitting a lot of close targets. Using a lot of disc seems to slow the machine down some. With either the safari or the quattro, learn to listen to the sounds and use the display to help determine what a good sounding target may be.
