I found the t1 volume turned way down on the beach modes. I turned it back up.

When you hit one area that is getting a lot of noise interference, you can go to noise cancel and just step through a few frequencies manually to find the best.

Good point on noise cancel. I was hunting near power lines and there were some areas where manually dialing in the channel really helped. Another great feature that unfortunately is not on the 600.

Impressive write up. I really appreciate the time you've taken to clearly (as mud) explain what you've noticed and how it reacted to certain conditions. Really appreciate the time V!

Love the write up. Thinking now I may have bailed to soon on some targets that I should have dug deeper on. I'm loving the pinpoint mode as well.


Stuck burried in snow today though.

Great write up. some pooh, pooh the 800's ability to find very small targets, but often on the beach some nice ice is attached to small gold and silver.
