July - 10 Gold - Fisher AQ Ltd

[Slimpickuns]

Good to see this site is back up! Had a great time hunting the negative low tide wet sand cycles last month. This was the result of several hunts at a few local beaches. Ran the AQ in All-Metal with ATS turned all the way down and sensitivity at max. 10 gold items in total, one of them being a little bit of a bucket lister, an 18k (750) Black Diamond wedding ring. Also, loads of silver! especially chains! The wild surf during the days is doing a bang up job at jostling loose the jewelry this summer! Here are the totals:

10k - 29.9 grams
14k - 1.6 grams
18k - 6.3 grams
925 - 10.4 oz

Good luck out there & HH!

How slow were you going? If I used those settings it would false a lot but a break through target sounds would definitely be distinguishable from the noise. Any other adjustments done?

Congrats on the awesome hunts.

Thanks! I was swinging slow but not snails pace, coil sweeping directly on wet sand..Yea I was getting a little falsing, mainly from EMI sources such as piers..Despite a little falsing though, the target breaks screamed out loud, sharp, & clear so distinguishing falsing from a target was no problem...Freq delay I would adjust anywhere from 8 - 9.5 depending on the wet sand conditions & EMI..Threshold set to barely audible. I ran the machine in all metal for all these hunts.

Thanks Joe! It was a deep faint target.. I'm lucky the diamond didn't fall out of the setting, two of the four pegs on the setting are missing, so the stone was hanging on by two pegs!

Great finds, good to see the AQ is doing well for you!

That’s a stellar month for sure!  Nice going.

Question:  When I turn my limited up--targets get quieter.  Is there something in your settings that offsets this?  Up at full there's practically no response. 

Thought maybe it was a "pulse in ground" thing but that's not true.  

Just wondering if I have a machine with problems.

You mean when you turn your sensitivity up you get less of a response from a target?

CJC. Exactly what setting are you turning up?  I’ve had a couple of instances with the volume knob not responding as it was turned up. It was corrected by FT.
