I have 2 hours to hunt this morning and I’m going to a totally hunted out park for 7am to 9am. I was thinking of cutting out, in custom, volume, pitch and tone to the lowest and leaving everything from 20 and up on 25? Also to get the depth, since every thing I have found which isn’t much, was 10” to 12”. Good news is out of a foot it’s 10% soil, 90% sand so not painfully hard to dig.

I wonder it Beach mode would do better in this park or would that 10% soil hurt that mode?

Truth by cutting out the iron tone(lowering volume in everything but high conductors) but going all metal you defeat the whole purpose of going all metal. You WANT to hear the iron tone (grunt) with the false non ferrous tone because that clues you in as to the nature of the false...iron!

I tell ya, you couldn't ask for a better person to hunt with, he proved it that day I came close to heat exhaustion!!! He's definitely a character for sure, but he's turned out to be a good friend!!! I'm glad I met him and wish I could meet more of you guy's!!!

I never said AND “all metal” that would be counterproductive in that case not to mention that’s the problem I always hear choppy highs (falsing) never grunts for some reason, unless I’m just use to the grunt sound of the AT and F75.

You’re still my leader :))

Well, frankly, I couldn't really understand what you were saying exactly (lol), so I was going by what you said above and how you described your typical discrimination/notch setup in this post, http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/e...ne-utilize-threshold-equinox.html#post5915493, which basically sounds like all metal (i.e., "I don’t notch out anything I lower the tone and volume on iron.") So I figured you were doing the same thing here so I am not surprised you don't hear the iron grunts. That just might be the issue. You've asked this question so many different ways (here's another where you implied all metal - http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/e...-6-coil-vs-11-coil-u-s-coins.html#post5911117), I have to look back on how I've answered it for you previoudly just to try to figure out why it is not clicking for you. This might be a clue. By the way, to answer your original question, "Is this crazy?", the answer is "Yeah". :tongue3:

Lol yeah I never notch out anything I lower volume and tone. I don’t even know how to notch out. Lol

Yeah I have ADHD bad so I think a couple of things at one time. I’ll admit I’m terrible with words a master at number which is why I do loans and not a author. But looking back even I’ll admit I butchered that post. :laughing

Getting serious I do appreciate all the time you take to advise a lunatic as myself. It’s always took me longer to learn something, so the teachers usually lost their minds, but once I get it I sore. 🦅
