Random beep at end of stroke

[perry2]

Hi All: I have been working with the ATP the last month on a 2 1/2 acre parking lot (winter use) I'm having a great time with over 200 coins and little junk. But my issue is that I'm getting a high tone beep at the end of stroke on many passes.( maybe 2 out of 5-6 swings/) Why I often recheck the swing several times without any signal. any one have any thoughts ?? perry
almost all hits are at 2" to 6"- once found the signal is clean and constant

I've noticed the same thing, on occasion, just after I get a target hit; making it seem like there's two targets within a couple feet of each other. I chase the 2nd tone, only to find nothing, and return to dig the original. I don't know if it's a delayed reaction from the machine, or what.

Run your coil wire straight up the shaft for the first 12" then wrap it tightly around the shaft. Use ty-raps, tape, Velcro or what ever you prefer on the straight section. Let us know how it works out.
Also shallow targets can double up with sensitivity set too high.

what rob said

ANY movement of the coil wire and you gonna hear it

Thanks! I'll make the coil wire adjustment.

I have checked my coil wire-tight and taped down, no coil cover, nothing seems loose or flapping-I have found that slowing down seems to reduce the problem -maybe 20-30%.-next I'll try lowering the sens. 2-3 notches ?? Perry
