midalake Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Just now, Jeff McClendon said: So I manually accept all iron range targets with the accept/reject feature so Beach 1 and Beach 2 are preset for -9 to +40. Interesting. I find in Horseshoe mode that the separation between Ferrous and Non-Ferrous becomes more pronounced. There is, without question an increase in depth ability. When you do this, do you need to be in two tones? Other than the obvious [hearing ferrous] Do you notice other performance factors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff McClendon Posted December 28, 2021 Author Share Posted December 28, 2021 Dave, we have been over this before. So as far as I know there is absolutely no difference between being in default Beach 1 (-9 to 0 rejected) and pressing the horseshoe button to accept -9 to 0, or just doing what I do, accept all targets in Beach 1 manually from -9 to 0. Pressing the horseshoe button does not change the “mode” to something special, magical or anything else. It is just a shortcut for what I do manually. Beach 1 with the horseshoe button engaged is still Beach 1 with all metal targets accepted. Whether pressing the horseshoe button to accept all targets in Park 1, Park 2, Field 1, Field 2, Beach 1, Beach 2, Gold 1 or Gold 2 adds depth to the Equinox…….I have no clue. Will it make it possible to hit iffy, borderline non-ferrous targets that are responding as mixed non/ferrous and ferrous….definitely. Obviously it is the only way to detect really deep non ferrous targets that are totally responding as ferrous unless one runs a threshold tone with -9 to +0 rejected and listens for interruptions in the threshold. At a noisy beach that method might not work real well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After a week back in, I will do just this. I will change the machine over manually to accept everything. It would be obvious to me really quick if there were operational differences. I will call it Jeff beach day!!! 😁 8 hours ago, Jeff McClendon said: Obviously it is the only way to detect really deep non ferrous targets that are totally responding as ferrous YES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
