Nuke em Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 On Youtube i saw from another forum link that a bloke has found another way to check for bad targets on his 600 . I assume its the same for the 800 . The Minelab Equinox 'Hack' - Target ID Trick. Starts at 1.49 minutes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Gillespie Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Nicely made videos, but this technique is not 100% accurate. Spent a couple hours hunting yesterday and found it to be a nice feature on some trashy targets, but caution must be taken. After digging several targets that were trash I found myself walking away from some because of this technique. Then a little later in my hunt I came across a perfect 13 at what I thought to be 6+ inches, did the pump with an open screen and only -#'s, but the audio was perfect doing a normal sweep. Had to dig and out comes a Jefferson at maybe 5 1/2" deep. Nice thing to try, but if you feel you should dig, then dig. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chase Goldman Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 To me the whole pumping thing was mumbo jumbo divining rod type stuff (just sweep the coil a few inches off the ground, same as most any detector) with the only real "tip" being using all metal which is the reason why ML smartly made the Horseshoe button easily accessible in the first place. Another tool just like pinpoint to aid in target recovery decisions which has been discussed repeatedly on this board. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
