I get it now. I watched a Tony Eisenhower video, in which he air tested a bunch of rings. The TID of 14.7 gram 24K mens ring came up as 33 and that surprised him. https://youtu.be/SsgspduZA_8?t=862

Sorry, misunderstood.

Wait...what?

24K gold will have a TID on the NOX like a quarter or even higher, like silver.

How many crabs have you dug up using your Nox? I've dug up 4 of those toe pinching speckled crabs so far. lol

with the narrow (-9 - 40) VDI? Could Minelab update the Nox with a full range VDI? Couldn't that possibly help with discrimination of bottle caps?

Thanks guys.

Found it detecting on a beach on Long Island. It's got some weight to it but not like if it were made out of iron. It's not magnetic. I didn't clean out all the sand stuck to it.

So I did the update. Copper pennies are now 24-25, same as dimes. Zinc pennies are still 21.

Very nice! So does gold give a ferrous signal down deep? I hunt on the beach 99% of the time. The beach was dredged last year and there's a lot of iron. Am I to dig every ferrous signal?

Thanks guys, I called Minelab and Jaime said to ship the control unit to them.

Thanks for the reply Dubious. I have tried the factory reset and the coil cable is on right...the unit starts up (while charging) when the coil cable is not attached but then it shuts off. I bought it from Cabellas because I had a $200 gift card...and it was drop shipped from Minelab in Illinois. I'll give them a call tomorrow. I feel like a little kid on Christmas who just got the toy he wished for...but it doesn't work. I got gypped! lol

Just finished reading page 3. Fascinating! ?
