Metal Detecting
Does any Simplex user out there, find where their machine doesn't hear/see a cut nail...?!?!
What am I doing wrong???
I have used all but the Beach Mode, to locate a cut nail, that's directly under my coil.
I thought that "All-Metal" Mode would certainly find it - nope...!
I checked the Iron Audio; the headphones volume; the Notch Mode (-nope) all notches available.
Hey, I even re-balanced my machine, to no avail...!!
So, any help is appreciated...!
Thanks!
 

Have you tried approaching the target from different angles?
 

My Bad...!
I messed with things the next day, and finally heard the silly nail - VERY embarrassing...!!
Gotta re-read the owner's manual again...!
 

Heck one day dam machine acts one way next day. Point is I use field or park, depending on the depth and angle of coin in ground you will get a non traditional number so I suggest in doubt dig ok, thankyou
 

Glad to hear that the detector hit the cut nail,,and your getting it dialed in

Dialed-in, meaning figuring the machine out?
I'm over 75% there, I feel.
The trashy areas I change game plan, and manually notched-out some stuff -
just to keep up with the sounds and numbers..., and after awhile, I've heard those mid-tones and high to the highest range of tones,
that I've done quite well with just knowing a few VDI numbers for good stuff, then I figure out things easier.
And, I'm digging shallow as possible, to quickly guess, dig and recover what the machine told me it was...!
Still learning....
