Very, very interesting, BeachHunter...

That is, like I said, pretty counter-intuitive to me...

I’m new to the Deus so I may be doing something wrong but I was under the impression I was in the stock dry beach mode. While detecting the sand I wandered into the wet slope and the Hf Elliptical Coil was very stable and hit on what I thought was a deep repeatable target. 

As far as what frequency the stock dry beach mode was in, I don’t know. Best of luck and my apologies if I caused you concern.

My apologies, I missed that in the first posts. Thank you Steve for the detailed reply.

The Hf Coil is new to me but the few times I have used it at the beach it was stable on both the dry and wet sand in the dry beach mode. Your mileage may vary due to locale. Depth? Was as it always is for my area wet or dry.

For some reason the lower weighted Beach modes bug me and I’m concerned the Equinox will have a problem finding small gold at the beach. I.E. small findings on gold chains or small open earrings.

Can one just use a different mode in the dry sand, other than the beach modes?

My Deus with the HF Elliptical Coil works very well for me at the beach, even on the wet sand.

So I’ll be using the Equinox to compliment the Deus and vice versa.

I use the original Mechanix brand gloves. Good luck!

Welcome to the forum Aproc123.

Looks like you had a good time. Thanks for the pics and good luck.

Iron Bios could be similar to “balance” Gain?  like when setting the bios on an amp tube. I could be way off though.

Maybe something to do with the audio as in Iron Audio? The filters adjust the balance of what you hear from the target.

   Hopefully they don't try to make really good profits on the extras, seems like they charge an excessive amount for the waterproof headphones for instance.

Plus one on that.

Here’s hoping the waterproof headphones are priced reasonably.

Thanks BeachHunter. So in a couple of years time ML will come out with an even better machine & I will want that too!

As long as they evolve as fast as you do. Good luck.

For me it’s the fast recovery and wanting to get into the water.

Welcome to the forum ignas. Best of luck with your choice on a detector.

Welcome aboard sohN. Best use of the word NOX I've read so far. Good luck out there.

Apologies,,,,,,,,

I meant to say "Brasso wadding cleaner"

not "brillo" ........ it's been a long day !

I was wondering about that. 

Thanks for the tip Dave. I still have the original screen protector from Deus on mine.

Started with the Excal so a big Minelab fan. I’m used to the tones of the Minelab’s so the new Equinox should be a perfect fit.

Cool finds Skate. I like the fact you’re hitting those nickels. Gold is sure to follow. Good luck!

Welcome to the forum chieftain.

Congratulations Strick on such a cool find. Good for you that you stuck with it to pull out the gold even if the numbers weren’t there.

Very nice coin Ash!
