The Return Of A Good Day

I recently had some doubts in using the main detector and was pondering the possibility of eliminating some by selling.

In detail, I complained of some high ID response that I accidentally dug up in the absence of decent signals.

The last victorious session, brought me a 6.49-gram 18K wedding ring and by sheer luck, with an amazing 80, I deigned to dig it out.

So this morning I decided to go out with a dear old detector, one that doesn't mess around, and the numbers are shocking considering the spot, the devastated condition of the clay and rocks, and lousy visibility.

After 4 1/2 hours on the bottom, thanks to the use of hooka compressor, I flushed out 4 pieces totaling 20 "dirty" grams.

The numbers speak for themselves, and I am beginning to have clearer ideas....

I will add no more...

Right now, I find myself having to compare two detectors and determine for sure what I could do without.

The results are already quite clear, and I am not happy about that, because I demand from a modern high-end instrument, an effectiveness at the level at least similar to that of a technology that is more than 10 years old.

Instead, I don't.

Instead, I perceive a significant loss of time in qualifying a low conductor signal and the resulting ineffectiveness over time of the air-limited session.

Finally, after two weeks fighting with extreme overburden and forced to some unproductive reverse dredging, the miracle of the new moon is doing better as usual 🏴‍☠️
