Welcome to Pulse Induction Hunting! Here is a little advice: Go back to page 12 in the manual and MAKE SURE you have set your tone frequency to match YOUR hearing the best. Do you hear high or low tones better? Next, set your pulse width to about 3/4 power (2-230pm position). Turn your threshold up to where you can barely hear it above the waves and wind noise - like a mosquito hum, and use the machine in NORMAL mode.

DO NOT just walk up or down the beach in one direction or the other! Pick yourself a 50-yard long beachfront, and start gridding it. You start at the wet sand high mark and detect right into the water thigh-deep, move over a step and detect right back up to the high wet sand mark.. Rinse and repeat until the whole 50-yards or 5-hours is done.
Big Gold to you!

Thanks Terry! I appreciate the advice. I am close to those settings and I am really trying to listen closely to the tones. Already looking at the tide charts to time the low tides. I fish out of a Kayak so MD competes with that on the falling tides.

Can't wait for the first "good" find.
