aerospace guy Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Ok Gerry...we all R waiting patiently for more info. In my case I want to know 4 things, (1)how does it perform in hot rock/trashy areas with DD coil. (2) How does it compare with the ML6000?.(3) how do the mono coils perform. What is the price with military discount if available? Thx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridge Runner Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Gerry They said wash your mouth out but spit the dirt in a gold pan because it may have gold in it. You could get another half ounce more. It would be if I was telling the story. Chuck 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aureous Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Great find! But what I wanna know....did you use 'Large' mode to find that? Did you trial this mode much? If so, how much difference do you think it made on larger, deeper targets? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, how much difference do you think it made on larger, deeper targets? The video shows he was in fine with tracking off, interesting line of questioning though, the manual recommends using fine unless under specific circumstances as it's the best overall performer. It sounds like you would only use Large if the ground conditions and hot rocks dictated it's use but you'd lose sensitivity to smaller targets, overall though even if chasing big deep gold fine sounds the best. Normal, Large and Salt are more a last resort in that order if you can't get away with using Fine. They don't sound specifically better in any way on any target other than better ground handling. FINE Mode Provides the maximum possible detection on small, low-conductivity targets (such as fine gold and specimen gold) while also providing the best detection of most medium and large targets. Because of its increased sensitivity to small/fine targets, FINE Mode can be more susceptible to ground minerals, hot rocks or saltwater. FINE is typically the preferred mode for most conditions. LARGE Mode Maintains strong detection of large targets while reducing small and medium targets. Most important, this mode reduces susceptibility to highly mineralized ground and hot rocks. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant see the screen details with my ancient eyes lol. The manual is one thing...practical use in-field is another. I'm hoping it has some serious depth and that later coil options will stretch it further.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
