PSPR Posted December 2, 2022 Author Share Posted December 2, 2022 Someone will run a test on those little wadded up or folded up pieces of aluminum foil we all find. Those are worse than pull tabs. Sometimes my pinpointer says there is a little piece right there and I still can't see it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dewalt Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 I found a piece this morning at the beach with the manticore, rang up 20 sounded and looked great on the 2d. Was expecting gold , was even the right colour 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fell Wanderer Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 I'm hoping the Manticore's new enhanced audio theme which varies according to size and depth of a target, will also give an audiable distinction for subtle differences in shape between close conductors like ring pulls, aluminium foil and gold rings? I used to love how my old Sovereign GT BBS machine would tell me through audio discrimination what was under my feet. Its hard to describe in words but I could distinquish between small aluminium foil and a hammered coin just through the roughness, purity or intensity of a signal, something my Multi-IQ Equinox 800 couldn't do as well in my humble opinion. So if the Manticore through its new audio themes can discriminate better than what came before then I will be very happy to own one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSPR Posted December 4, 2022 Author Share Posted December 4, 2022 If detectors could only give us specific gravity of targets. That info might be in their EMF somehow. Sorry, I was day dreaming there for a minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn they where good. I remember park hunting one day, and thought " I'm gonna go after nickles today". Nickles came in at 138 or so on the spray meter, but had a certain " boing" to them. I dug like 7 buffalo's that day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
