So, anyone else been getting out with the 900

[civil_war22]

I’ve not been back out since I went the other day. I did get out on the tractor and cleared some brush and stuff away from a 1960’s aerial photo that showed the old outbuilding behind the house. I forgot to mention last time I was on here about finding the privy. I found it the first day I was out. It was right next to a pile of Easter Lillie’s. I put a partial program in my detector just to see what it would do, and I was immensely surprised to find three Indians one buried under a building stone. So, anyone else care to share their settings like on hunting on park mode or field 1 or 2 and what they like most about it. I really want a good coin mode, if someone on here has a true coin mode where the iron can be worked on to either be a low tone or masked as it goes over that’d be great. I don’t see too many YouTube videos out on the Nox 900 yet. I’ve done a bunch of work over at that little house since that day including taking a pile of dirt that was near the privy that had square nails and rose head nails and I’ve been using that rolling magnet to get them. I’m needing some help on a good coin setup like where do you notch stuff out. If you’ve got a photo of your screen where to notch it out I’ve actually became very familiar with all the global and local settings rather quickly thanks to getting a very in depth manual online, and not having my cell phone on me, or in the same pocket where I swing. What do you have Nox 900 lovers for a coin mode that kicks out them pesky square nails, I’ve been rolling over them when I get to it but can’t get them all, I’ve also opened up ground that would have been original to the site close to 1838 when it was built.

Got our today with the Nox 900 and did some searching with the smaller coil in the iron infested ground out here. Between working on the house itself stripping the floor where they used tar paper on hardwood floor I’ve been detecting whenever I can. We’ve got quite a bit of rain, so in between the rain, and the open dirt areas I’ve got coins, relics and Native American artifacts to look out for. I can’t wait till this detector is out quite a bit longer so we’ll have some folks who really have gotten used to their machines. I’m getting there😂

I use mine almost every day, but, I run it wide open and don't notch anything. 50 tone, iron bias usually 0, recovery speed usually 4, and sensitivity up as high as I can stand. Park 1 in dirt, Beach 2 in the wet/ocean. 12 X 15" coil. In heavy iron, I switch to the 6" coil, but, try to keep all the other settings when I can.

Same as me. Today I found out the 6” coil helped tremendously. I always make sure to bring old copper coins, dimes and nickels to carry in my Grey Ghost pouch so I can run a test pass while I’m moving around to different spots. I’m itching to dig that privy but I want to get as much time as I can on the Nox

I’m not sure but it seems that there’s not many 900 users in the US just yet. I know I see a lot of Australia and Uk videos. It’s killing me knowing that house is 185 years old and they had money, so it’s got to be there somewhere. I’m just dumbfounded,
I can’t figure a coin setting that I can use that I can stick to. The relic mode I use is simple to remember but there is so many global and local settings I’m still not sure on, just like when you hold the settings button a t1 shows up, and also the ferrous numbers on the far end on recovery speed I never seem to figure out a happy medium for coins. I can’t crank mine up as much as I want to because of the square nails , and some EMI. Sad part is today the nest no ice cancel I could get was -7. Which is strange because I’ve not seen it that bad

I've got only around 20 hours in my 900 so far. Snow and frozen ground is keeping my detecting trips to just a few hours a week. I run mine in All Metal, Park 2, 50 tones, FE 2, Recovery 5, and sensitivity just under the EMI which is 23-25. Park 1 for some reason is an EMI mess when I'm downtown so I've been using Park 2. I also got the 12X15 and the Coiltek 10X5 and both seem to work great. I had the 11" coil on yesterday at a drained pond and got a 10" dime on a scratchy and faint 89-90 VDI.

I’ve been getting a lot of goodies at the 1830’s house, my problem is the pesky square nails, they seem to sound good when their in the hole, then I get them out and it’s junk. We have EMI issues bad here. The house has very limited electrical but we have 4 large transmission lines going down them.
