I have been tuning my DFX to find deeper targets with the Super 12 coil. I buried a quarter and a dime six inches deep. After some adjustments I have the DFX beeping on the targets but the signagraph is not responding with very high bars as it does when the targets are shallower. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make the signagraph respond better?

You said it right there.
The Signagraph doesn't work as well with deeper targets.

Hmmmmm thanks guys. So I guess a good pronounced beep with a small bar on the signagraph indicates that it may be deep. I should then ,after confirming the depth with the pinpointing system, go ahead and dig. Do you agree?

You'll notice too that deep targets aren't always a good beep either. Those tend to break up and are what people refer to as those "iffy" signals. I call them "questionally good signals"

That depends on where the graph bar is at, you can still guess what it is by the position of the bar. :thumbsup:
But yes it can be worth to dig them also. :thumbsup:
