SittingElf Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Supposedly From Minelab's website: (TreasureNet post today)An important update on the Detect Modes… Previously we have stated that Park, Field and Beach would run in multi-frequency and that Gold would only use the single frequencies of 20kHz and 40kHz, giving better results for gold nugget hunting. Our ongoing collaborative field testing feedback from around the world has resulted in further improvements to Multi-IQ to the point where multi-frequency is now the best option for Gold Mode as well, and will be the default setting. Please refer to the revised Getting Started Guide for updated product functions. Caveat: I found this on TreasureNet, and I can't validate its authenticity, but sounds about right. This could be from early testing because I can't find the source on Minelab's site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveg Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Yep, this is an older thing, Elf. This "gold mode will include Multi-IQ" was changed very late in the process, and is speculated to be a part of why the release was delayed a bit. A couple of our esteemed members of this forum, including possibly the forum host/moderator, may have had something to do with that... ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chase Goldman Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Elf - If you go to the Minelab Site and the Treasure Talk blog in which this announcement was made you will find a lot of great info on the Equinox here: https://www.minelab.com/usa/go-minelabbing/treasure-talk Steve H. has a compendium of ML Treasure Talk Blog information specifically about Equinox Multi IQ Technology here: http://www.detectorprospector.com/metal-detecting/minelab-multi-iq-technology-details-explained.htm This is also linked in the Equinox Essential Information sticky thread at the top of the forum: The information in question was contained in the the Equinox Technologies (Part 3) Treasure Talk Blog Post here: https://www.minelab.com/usa/go-minelabbing/treasure-talk/equinox-technologies-part-3 The Essential Information thread is like Ragu Spaghetti Information Sauce for the Equinox - "It's all in there." Steve is working on re-racking and organizing it for even easier access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 As has already been noted, that all happened before detectors shipped to anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
