So I've got the Quick Draw II and supposedly it can be used in damp sand and very shallow water, yet every time I try and use it at a beach down in the damp sand, it goes nuts, no matter what I put the settings on. Anyone have a setting they use to keep it from beeping itself to death? Or would switching the coil to something like a DD work better?

It is not a good detector for salt water use, it is a single freq detector, it is not designed for salt water beaches....
