1st Hunt With Equinox 600

I hit a super trashy, saltwater bay beach yesterday after work for a quick hunt. Not my first choice for locations or style of hunting but it is close to my home and I was itching to swing the Equinox. Pulled a few silver coins and very little trash. I prefer eroded ocean beaches with moderate trash.  The brass ring had me for a minute...it rang in the 20's, was tarnished but it rubbed off just enough to see a glint of yellow. So far so good! 

Beach 1 and 2

GB - Auto 0

Sensitivity 18 (mostly) went to 21 briefly

2 tone (reject 20 and under) for cherry picking high conductors in heavy trash

Recovery 3 

Iron Bias 0 and 1

Thats a great hunt. If you could do that every time you hunted you could move that retirement date up a bit.

Very nice Report with a video to boot!

Awesome to see how that thing works and that trashy area

Thanks. It's speedy in the iron and trash. Separation was good, even with the 11" coil.  A few times I thought it was falsing on iron but out popped a coin. I can't wait to hunt with it again. Hopefully Saturday on a cleaner beach!

Nice job JP, that's the kind of vids I'd enjoy seeing until I get mine!

Are you in San Diego?  I'm in NorCal, so am looking forward to hitting HMB, Santa Cruz, etc., to see how it does.  This winter has sucked for beach erosion though :angry:
