I had actually used some of the beach programs to tune out EMI while hunting under power lines in coastal Virginia last year in one of the older versions. likely V.6. The beaches here in SoCal have a fair bit of black sands. But due to fresh sutures I'll be staying high and dry. What is the modified General settings? Also I see at the end you started using Gary's Sonar program? I merely experimented with Gary’s Sonar program. I’ve not seriously used it for anything yet. Relic hunts for me are very few and very far between. Later today, I’ll PM you my spreadsheet of the programs I use which includes the modified General.

If you are going to use a program out of beach modes make sure you are not handicapping your ability to find gold chains Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had mine pretty early and figured it out on my own before.... But I've been looking for gold up till the new shoulder surgery and not up to speed on V1.1.

If you are going to use a program out of beach modes make sure you are not handicapping your ability to find gold chains Most of my early V.6 custom programs were built off of Beach Sensitive. I used it about 60 % of the time. Beach 30 % and Diving 10%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So until the talented XP engineers can resolve this issue with the beach programs, I'll continue to place ultimate trust in my Deus II, the best detector on the market in my opinion, and bank on the odds that the little iron we do see on our beaches won't affect a successful hunt very much". Lucky dog. Every beach I hit I think they piled up pallets and burned their years supply of beer cans on them, then went over the pile several times with a disk and harrow.

We certainly have our fair share of aluminum…pull tabs, beer cans, can slaw etc. but very little iron on the beach compared to land hunts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F350Platinum Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 Hey @Deep Beeps, Try the settings for Beach Sensitive i posted in this article: It's not perfect but I am pretty sure you'll skip a lot of iron, and most pull tabs and aluminum bits will produce a "brassy" tone that you can also ignore after proving it to yourself. 🙂 Nothing to lose!

Thanks Platinum... I was really let down by the last update. I was getting false positives on every other iron target. Anyhow, headed up north for a few weeks to snipe / detect for gold, so the Deus will have to wait till I get back... And after thumb surgery.
