White's TDI SL strange behavior

[BeachBunnyTRHunter]

I don't know what's wrong with the detector? It seems that it won't stabilize even in the mild, South Florida dirt or sand. Moreover, air testing a gold ring with ground balancing off, the gain at the halfway point, and all conductors selected does not sound off regardless of how close the 18 karat gold ring is next to the coil. Coil connection is an obvious choice but it is not the issue, I checked. I tried different batteries, no difference. I tried different locations, at my house away from the beach, at the beach, at a different beach, all the same. The detector tends to completely wig out and will not detect even the largest Target such as the bolts holding up the stairs leading down to the beach.

Note, I can get the detector to sound off in the 18 karat gold ring If I turn on the ground balancing.

Again, regardless of whether the ground balancing is on or not there is no good position in the ground balancing setting, the pulse delay or anything else such as the frequency offset that gets the detector to calm down.

Test 2




Any ideas? Thank you. Brittany.

Do you have a coil cover ?
If so... is it clean inside ?

There is a coil cover, I've never tried to take it off but I will I didn't think of that and I know what you're talking about. To me, it seemed like it wouldn't come off but maybe I'm wrong. Thank you for your email. I hope you're correct. Happy holidays.
