I'm very new into this hobby and have been running my nox 800 for about 2 weeks every chance I get. I've been running park 1 with the factory presets, and digging almost everything. But I want to get more familiar with the tones and numbers to remove some of the trash I'm digging.
First I seemed to always miss the target when I dig, when I first get a hit I usually do an x pattern to get a rough idea where the item is. Then I utilize the pinpoint feature but still always off target. Now I don't have a ton of time on this machine, maybe 15hrs. So understanding some of this will take time and practice. Any helpful information on this would be great.
Secondly I'm seriously considering building a test garden to help strengthen my knowledge, if I do what types of coins or material should I bury? Realizing I'm new where can i get a mix of older coins to bury (since i haven't found any yet), and which type should I look to purchase for this garden?
I appreciate any help with these questions
Thanks
