Use a preset, don't try to tweak it for a few weeks until you get to know it.

Go back to every site you hunted in the past. That's what I am doing and finding great stuff every time. Went out for an hour after work yesterday to the site we hunted for a year with a ACE 400's. I found 2 tombacs, a saddle adornment, two musket balls and a broken gold plated buckle. The place had been hammered. Love my Nox 800

Yep, turn it on and go, just go, get into the particulars as you learn.

You can always retrace your steps later = why make it complex before you get used to swinging it?

Drop recovery speed from factory 3 setting, to 2, with the 11" coil. Leave the rest alone for a while. You are in for FUN!
