bklein Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 This gold chain has a 585 mark. It is not attracted to a magnet. Neither detector sees it. Manticore vs Impulse AQ on gold chain My CTX and Dual Field also don’t see it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 You really need to be farther from cars, metal chair bases etc. https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/1559-why-wont-my-detector-find-a-bottle-full-of-small-nuggets-or-a-gold-chain/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bklein Posted July 8 Author Share Posted July 8 I was forced to move to a better location by the CTX. It was picking up too much EMI - I couldn’t find a quiet location near where I tested the AQ and MC. Same results with all at the new location - which given what you say in your referenced thread is what should be expected. If there is no clasp with a bit of mass to it the necklace will likely not be detected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexnov Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Equinox sees such a goal in the beach mode and the tone gap is 0. I suppose Manticore will see it too. it should be tested on the beach, not in the garage🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bklein Posted July 9 Author Share Posted July 9 I “test” at the beach every other weekend. So far no chains like this, although thinner ones with larger clasp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bklein Posted August 3 Author Share Posted August 3 Steve is correct, the garage is a lousy place to do this testing - so I moved to a EMI quiet location and did another video. This one compares multi IQ mode in Beach General to 40KHz in Gold/Prospecting mode. In Multi IQ Beach there is noise that almost overshadows any valid signal - it is hitting on the little circular clasp but not the body of the 14K necklace. In Gold/Prospecting mode 40KHz it hits the necklace itself from quite a distance. I’m anxious to try it at the beach a week from now! On the dry sand I could drop the sensitivity way down below 20 and hit the necklace strong. Found 26 cents in the next 30 seconds.

schoolofhardNox Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Great video. Thanks. What did the Manticore read on the lower part of the necklace in the prospecting mode. I think the clasp read from 1-3 or so. Did the chain read the same numbers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is always the clasp or a knot to turn on the light but 10-11 it is already a thin ring and I start to believe the Manticore 😜 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
