Just have one 2 days and I am really impressed with the Depth and the target ID system. Target seperation
in trashy areas is good. I like running mine in all metal mode. I just Ignore the real low tones. You STILL have
to dig pulltabs. because they fall into the same range as gold rings. I wonder when manufactures will solve this?
Anyways, It's a great machine, I will just have to get use to how it "talk's" to me like all the others I have used!!
This is also the first Targer ID machine I have owned. When it says 36 or 39, you have a dime, 42 is a quarter &
45, as I found out today is a half dollar. Pennies fall into the 33-36 range. I tested my gold wedding band and it is
in the 15-18 range, the same as a pull tab!! ;D

This is a good start. Now for the advanced class, try the reading with a nail on top of the coin or two coins together. Stick a coin on edge in the ground as look at the readings. Do the same thing with less sensitivity.
