raziel900 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 who knows if they will add the tx power to have an extra boost in depth, to catch up with the manticore :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feedback from D2 users who also have the M-core are reporting similar, significant depth on deep beach targets. But having the ability to manually adjust it (esp. down if it is maxed out) like with the D1 x35 coils, would be helpful in mineralized soils. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raziel900 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 you say it is set to maximum on each multi-frequency program? from the youtube videos it seems that the manticore has an extra depth boost the problem is that there is a big difference in target between europe and the usa... air test don't help much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not talking air tests. See these threads... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheddar Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 would love to see them fix the US silver TID's quarters and halfs ring up the same numbers, and dollars are even lower! would be nice to had a clue if you were digging a half or quarter. i know other machines have a significant gap in these coins.

Chase Goldman Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Yes. The high conductors are really scrunched up there in the 90's. I do think XP is going to address this. I know it is possible to spread these TIDs out because they did so on the original Deus if you used the lower frequencies. On Deus 1, if you normalized target ID then all target IDs were normalized to what they would be if running 18khz regardless of the actual operating frequency (Note: TID normalization was only applicable to the original LF and X35 coils, the HF coils did not feature TID normalization as an option, so TIDs varied with frequency and the IDs were really compressed significantly when running the HF coil at 25khz or greater). So hopefully XP will give us the option to select the normalization reference to spread the target IDs as the user sees fit. Perhaps two normalization settings - Legacy and "Wide". But frankly, it's not really a show stopper for me, as even on the D2, zincolns and pennies rarely masquerade as dimes, quarters, or halves and frankly whether it's ringing up as a dime, quarter, or half makes no practical difference in my dig decision (i.e., I've never personally encountered a situation where I'm cherry picking halves over quarters), so I'll find out what it really is once I get it out of the ground, anyway. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPT_GhostLight Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 I have had a few copper Memorial pennies pop up to 92, but I investigate any numbers that sound good and as a rule all 90s come out of the ground. 😏 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why, do you only dig halfs and leave the quarters? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff McClendon Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 If XP designed Deus 2's target ID system just for Americans, we probably would not be having this conversation about the difference in target ID and audio response between a clad dime, silver dime and a copper penny..........or a quarter and half dollar. Obviously, XP is not JUST thinking about USA coinage. Having a way to adjust ID normalization would be helpful, but for me, I am like a couple of other posters, if the target seems to be coin sized and the target ID is 90 to 98.......I'm digging it when the ground isn't frozen. Do you USA users remember how Deus 1 and the ORX would scream on steel crown bottle caps that would also have target IDs in the 90s…….? Thanks XP for preventing that annoyance with Deus 2. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
