Thanks, I’m trying to figure this thing out without digging up my wife’s entire yard for nails & junk.

Welcome from East Texas. The AT Pro is a good machine.

Thanks for the welcomed advice. I live on a 200+ year old farm yard & it is full of every kind of metal imaginable. In some places the pinpointer goes off just by touching it to the ground. That’s why I retired my Ace 250 & bought the AT Pro with stock coil. I’m finding a lot higher class of trash now.

If your new to the AT Pro the stock coil will be ok for most situations. I am looking to snag a viper coil for mine. Another alternative is the 5x8 for trashy areas.
Good iron break point for relic hunting is 32-33 or where an old iron cut nail just breaks. Use pro audio.
The AT Pro tends to ground balance on the high side so I often ground balance then manually drop it down about 5 ie if it is 90 ill drop it to 85. This will help on depth and squeak out an extra inch or so.
Lastly you can keep iron audo off and use it if you have some jumpy numbers to iron check targets. Larger iron and flat iron like washers can give higher numbers and iron audio will give you a grunt to confirm this.
Happy Hunting!
