It was a big submerged spot and if I consider 40kHz/92+ sens/b.s. accept and auto G.b. it is more than acceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Tn Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 I think they've well rounded out the whole machine. It's not perfect but it's the one I reach for when I go hunting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would anyone interested in that? I have never used any of the Gold programs, for the most part it has been Beach Sensitive, Relic, and General. I want to help anyone who might be reluctant to update to V2. I was not reluctant and am pleased with the final outcome, but it took some effort to reach that outcome. 🙂 There are still some things that bother me, and I want to see if they were there all along. I'd be interested in seeing that comparison as well. When 1.0 came out, I updated, tried it a few times, got frustrated and went back to what I'm familiar with in .71. I may give 2.0 a shot, since .71 will may become unavailable in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you will be very happy with V2. I'll try to get this test done very soon, doing Christmas cleanup right now 😅 Not going to hide the opinion that some programs might require a little re-tweaking, but over time I've got a program for General that I'm very satisfied with now, and also a reliable beach program. As the good Colonel wrote you will also find a lot more small stuff. 🙂 Really small stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are several important changes from v0.71 to v1.0 and then some "fixes" to v1.0 that were done with v1.1. V2.0s change sheet for the RC update is very short. The change sheet for WS6 as master is longer. Before you make the switch to v2.0, you might want to review all of those change sheets on XPs website.

That would be VERY acceptable. But I find it difficult to run with a sensitivity of 86. Lots of ear fatigue even at that level. 1 hour ago, Rattlehead said: I'd be interested in seeing that comparison as well.

I will have 2.0 out today and will compare to .71. I have been running .71 for a week straight, so am up to speed. Going to set identical programs I was running in .71.

I won't be upgrading anytime soon, but will definitely look over the change sheets before I do. 3 hours ago, midalake said: I will have 2.0 out today and will compare to .71.

Would anyone interested in that? That would be of interest to me as well F350. I just recently got a second complete D2 unit at a very good price and have the remote and WS6 on V.71. My original D2 unit is currently on V1.1 and intended to do a side by side comparison but it got cold here in Ohio and haven’t had the chance to do so.

Lodge Scent Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I went from 1.1 to V2.0 last time out. I pulled a Large Cent from an EXTREMELY worn out site. I am not saying it was the V2.0 , because there were a couple of other variables at play. Even though I really can't say for sure V2.0 was the difference, I got the feeling that V2.0 was a bit more sensitive and a bit more reliable in tone and in visual ID. Time will tell.
