  1. I would stay away from the Go-Find series. Now that the Xterra Pro is out, I will second what Rick said. They are both economical detectors that you can turn on and go without fiddling with settings. Can't go wrong with either one. The only caveat would be that the older simplex models run on 12 Khz and go nuts when you use most pinpointers around them. If you make sure and get one of the newer gen simplex detectors, they have changed to 15Khz and no longer suffer from this problem.
  2. Worked for me last night. They have been overloaded with update attempts. It's 11:30 in the UK. Maybe try again in an hour or two. Maybe that part of the world will all be in bed and you can get through. It took me three tries before it worked.
  3. I'm just hoping for a full tones fix, although I'm not confident they will ever successfully marry full tones with multiple frequencies. Just too many tonal nuances to deal with unless they come up with some sort of 3D sound.
  4. Looks like the temp was too low on the plastic and caused delamination. Maybe changed the 3D printer settings to spit them out faster?
  5. Good catch. I forgot about the manual. Now I feel stupid. Too much time has passed between reading the manual and the headphone availability.
  6. Same here. Waiting on battery life and sound comparisons to the WS6 backphones. The D1 WS5 headphones were too muffled for my taste. I always preferred the WS4 backphones. We should see some Youtube reviews soon since people are starting to receive them.
  7. Was wondering if any/all would be compatible for the US. I use Gaia now. It is $40 per year.
  8. It was all in French. I think I accidentally signed up for the French newsletter a while back. This is on the main XP site, but it says it's not available in the US when I click on the Google store link. https://www.xpmetaldetectors.com/en/produit/go-terrain-application.php
  9. Just got an email from XP for the go terrain app for Apple and Google phone stores. Looks like it is only for France ATM. Maybe it won't be too long before we get it in the US.
  10. Went to one of my worst sites this afternoon. Mid 1800's square nails by the thousands. The "magic" programs have trouble identifying iron compared to the stock programs. A lot of the square nails sound like good targets. It would seem the "magic" is just wishful thinking in my soil. It might benefit you if the targets are very shallow with no rust halos.
  11. I will wait and test the first 7 version out this weekend before I update. I tried last night with bigger pieces of iron. It wasn't seeing the dime which means it was being masked. I can only get this to work with smaller nails, which is still magic to me. I told the wife last night that I needed to buy a 2nd D2 so I could keep one on this version. She didn't throw anything at my head which is good.
  12. Full tones has it's own iron tone built in. You can literally hear ferrous and nonferrous at the same time with no discrimination that would cause you to miss some comingled targets. You have to adjust your tone breaks so -6.4 and up to where you want iron tone to stop (probably 10), have a low iron tone. Look up Gary Blackwell's Sonar program. It is the same concept. This is one of the key features that make the Deus platform the best in iron.
  13. There doesn't seem to be any connection to the VDI numbers. Dimes and pennies ring up in the 80's, but a nickel hits in the high 90's.
  14. The only key setting I've seen so far is discrimination. I can't duplicate this unless discrim is at -6.4. You can leave all other settings unchanged apart from the discrim and it will still work.
  15. It will be this weekend before I can test this on targets in the ground. I'm afraid to change anything before then. If it works, then to me this is like finding the ark. It is more than likely just an audio glitch that won't translate into actual unmasking.
