Version 1.1 Now Available For Update On The XP Site.

[F350Platinum]

I loaded up V1.1 this morning, and took it outside to check it out. Loaded up Relic Reaper, threw a board on the ground and did all sorts of air tests with nails, coins, and other junk I've found including the trusty beer can bottom. The D2 has the 13" elliptical on it.

First thing I noticed with the update is that I didn't have to update the WSA II headphones. ? Updating to V1 was all they needed. 

Observations:

I did not have to back off to 24 kHz to mitigate iron falsing. ? Iron is iron is iron now, almost scary for me. Used all sorts of forged, hammered, square, bent nails from the 1600s to the 1800s.

I'm using square high tones now for that PWM brassy tone on aluminum. They cleaned full tones up too much. ? Some aluminum did an up/down tone passing left to right then right to left in V.71, that's gone. Oh well.

Put a silver dime down, got its VDI, and then put a hammered nail on top of it. I'll be darned if it didn't hit cleanly on the coin sweeping over the width of the nail, and even along the length it blipped 91. Disc and notch independently to 10 had no effect other than to quiet the nail. I'll have to try both. I run Relic Reaper at 0 disc and no notch. Want to hear it all.

Put a pull tab down, and got a handful of nickels, the pull tab was 62 and the nickels 60. Slightly different less brassy sound with the nickels, lifting didn't have much effect unfortunately. I was glad to see nickels ID'ing differently.

Beer can bottom was way brassier sounding, and lifting helped. It also drew a square on the XY screen.

Tried a nickel next to the pull tab and was shocked to see both VDI's even with Reactivity at 0. ? Wow.

I didn't find a huge amount of difference adjusting audio response, but the tones were more defined the higher it went.

For some reason Silencer does nothing for me. ? Didn't help with iron at all. Iron was iron. I run bottle caps at 3.

Conclusion: Definite improvement over V1, I'm happy to have my Relic program back, real ground experience will sharpen me up. The deer flies got bad so I quit.

How do you get to the 1.1 update?  When I go on the xp website, and go to updates, it only shows v. 1.0.

F350 I thought your Reaper was improved in V1.0 using negative Disc. It just might be deadly in V1.10 with a few tweaks.

Don’t forget that prog 3’s silencer is “close to v1.0”.  Maybe they left that in there for us to have a good comparison?

Yep.  I noted that in my post here that racks out known issues and observations on the ver 1.X updates.  Jeff should be able to do a good A vs. B comparison between Programs 2 and 3 in ver 1.1 if he wants to.

Sorry I missed that.  Feel free to delete my post since I you covered it previously.  I try to keep up but sometimes I miss it ?

Not a problem.  It’s info buried in another thread and we have multiple threads covering the topic despite my attempt to consolidate . Good that it’s mentioned here too.  No need to delete your post.

It is. ? I'll send ya updated settings when I've got it all together. Took it in a field in front of my house  and dug two relics in 15 minutes.

It shows V1 but will update you to V1.1.

WSA II headphones don't need updating, you will find your pinpointer there but will have to save your sensitivity settings again.

Thanks.  I kept looking for v. 1.1 and couldn’t find it.  I got it all updated to 1.1 now.
