Hello All,
I am a new Deus user. I own the 11 inch coil. The software is robust and I am admittedly very green in terms of my knowledge of detectors and the science behind them.
I am mainly coinshooting in New England. I find my sites are generally contaminated with iron scraps and/or beer cap/cans/tabs.
I am seeking to do two things:
1. Identify a few programs as a starting point which will help me on these sites based on the aforementioned contaminants; and
2. Stack the programs in a logical order on the Deus such that I can toggle between them easily to test targets before I choose to dig.
I am interested to understand the thought process behind how to use different programs to narrow down what a target might be or not be before deciding to dig.
I have found some helpful techniques from Gary with regard to pulling the coil back off questionable targets to identify caps and so forth.
The primary programs I see discussed are the “Hot” program and the “Sifter”. I do own the newest A.S. book and I am slowly working my way through it. I have limited knowledge in terms of detecting so I am facing a steep curve.
Thanks for help getting off to a good start with the Deus. As luck would have it the ground is frozen solid so I am working exclusively in theory at this point.
