Equinox Ground Balance Disabled In Beach Modes?

Keith.....then that didnt change with the UPDATE as a way of making it quieter in the water?    Some machines have a factory set GB for beach hunting...... why because they may not always GB.....that can be the case here in Fl.    I normally hunt with the default GB 0, but i have GBed in the wet sand ...... the obvious problem is its also GBs to the salt and a higher concentration of minerals that are LITE UP.   It may not be working....... but i sure get different GBs from the dry...... damp...... and wet sand.   I also believe the salt content in the wet sand WILL change as you get deeper in the water.

Dew - It is indeed ground balancing even in beach mode, just as you have experienced.  ?

That's why ML recomnends Beach 2 and GB tracking in that situation per p. 41 of the user manual.

"We have not changed the GB on any of the modes since the launch of the detector. GB is definitely not locked in any modes on Equinox."
