  1. I've been getting the manti with dialed in as well this year.   I am hunting an old park  where the coins are not super deep, but alot of trash.  I've concentrated on using the 5 x 8 coil, and like your parks, no easy signals. The coins are camouflaged with trash. In my test garden, I have been comparing the depth and audio signals.  I have bumped up recovery speed to 6, and depth  has not suffered, but 6 gives a better signal on the iffy targets than the 3 & 4 .  I have pulled out 5 wheats, one indian, one buffalo, 2 v nickels,  and a barber dime in a 30 foot radius.  All coins near iron trash, all targets at the bottom edge of coil detection.  I will then go back thru that area with the 11 coil at some point.   If the target ID turns up a coin number, while bouncing around, and the audio sounds somewhat good, I dig it.  Good results. I dig a bit more nails though,  its been worth it.

  2. Give me an expanded meter anytime.   Thats one major thing i did not like about the eq 800.  I had a Rutus alter 71 a few years back, and I found the most jewelry with that machine, as it had 120 segments.  I would go into a ballfield bleacher area, and the rings would lock on with a solid number, where as the aluminum crap would usually bounce a bit. The only aluminum that locked in was the tab when broken away from the ring.

  3. I came across a link for this XP D2 PDF  by John Oliver, on another forum.  I printed it out. Looks like a real time saver as I learn the D2. Does anyone know where I can find John's email address, I'd like to send him something for all his hard work!.  TIA
