I didn't revert it to factory settings...is that necessary to make it jump from zone to zone? I couldn't get it to work in Park 1 or 2.

LOL, That's the same dang train I had yesterday ! Really liked your video and I may have ALOT more questions starting next week !

I set these up and then realized I didnt save it to the profile. Lost 2 times befire i realized it.

Where are you.....we miss you

Hi sir, I was watching your “CTX 3030 at a local park - Deep silver - Full digs” video, and I see the pinpointer you use. The Pistol Pinpointer I like the way you use it and am interested in buying one, but I can’t find it anywhere. Do you happen to recall where you bought it? If so please let me know. Thank you sir.

Do you still own this unit? Just got mine the other day. Your video is really one of the only ones up here on the menu buttons.

Even on gold field all Default it rocks for dimes and nickes. I did that pattern today at a park and a beach and i got a bunch of dimes. it sort of favored dimes and lead weights

But but but... what if you find a ring ?

Yeah that's a rare find. I seen a guy shoot a nickel thrown up in the air. He was my neighbor growing up in the sixties. Him and his son was there and Bob was an expert shot. I think he was shooting his Carbine that day not sure. But he had me throw up the nickel and yes he hit it square. Well the rest of the story is that guy Bob was Bob Reese who founded Springfield Armory.

Do you still use this machine? Thinking of getting one myself

1:50 look up an to your right

I love your stuff dude. Green light on my machine thanks again!!

Nice hand digger what brand is it. Manticore VDI seems more jumpy than the Deus 2

for a coine 12 inch is the max cant not higher detect sorry im netherlands but i do my best type english alright i say now in the netherlands pleas translate it 28cm is de max voor het detecteren van een euro munt verder komt die echt niet in geen een instelling is dit normaal bij alle dingen die net zo groot zijn als 1 euro munt komen op 28/30cm

Can u please do a video on balancing your cz7apro I have that same machine please and thank you

These both are best metal detector

Send me one of these a gift your videos so good

Hey Bill I have a question on setting up for coins setup. When I set it up it won’t let me go back to the original part one. Can you let me know what is wrong

When you were saying they were acceptable on the Nox , I was thinking it destroyed all the targets, just like your e-Trac. The E-Trac definitely has a more dependable VDI , it could be more stable if you knocked your sensitivity down a few more than you did , ( it helped me ) I run at 18 , but me starting from a detector that had 0 VDI , I just went by sound , and if you hear the Nox , even though the VDI was jumping a little, the tones were unmistakably great.

Thanks man helped me out alot

Can you give us the model # of the PNY battery?

Thank you for the helpful information. Nice touch with the train... LOL

They could sell more detectors if the battery options included regular double A Batteries. This is practical when in the field requires it. With so many options in Programing yet no battery choice. WHY NOT!

X Terra Pro, any thoughts?

what PNY model is this ❔

Notcing that much in ANY detector is going to geatly hinder the processing and performance . Especially depth. Not only that from my testing it down averages greatly ive seen non ferrous objects down average as much as 30vdi #s like a button ringing at an 8 that is normally a 37-38 without the hand made square nails with it. A merc' with a poptab coming in at 28-32 insted of 40's. To make a gold field program(high freq weighted) to "cherry pick" high conductors seems counter intuitive. Just my 2 cents.

I have an Equinox 800. I just did a similar comparison but only in gold mode 2 with coins from the 70s, .08 grams copper wire, .99 and .06 grams lead, tiny pieces of foil, and other very small pieces of metal. I also switched my coils between the 6 and the 11 inch coil. I place two 2 inch concrete bricks between the coil and the targets. For the very small targets I obviously couldn’t use the bricks. My intent is for hobby prospecting. Setting up a test bench test like you did gave me so much more confidence and understanding of action vs reaction from the detector. My conclusion for the hot soils in Colorado is GM2 in 40 kHz. Multi does detect ever so slightly deeper on minus one gram lead. The benefit from using only 40 KHz is the extreme difference in noise. Multi frequency is non stop constant chatter. Visual ids from negatives to 20s and 30s, Even with ground balancing and noise cancellation. The only solution was lowering the sensitivity. From 25 down to 20 was a significant loss in depth. 40 kHz at max sensitivity without ground balancing and noise cancellation was still much more stable and so much more peaceful. With 40 khz and not all that damn noise I could clearly hear the threshold break without a visual target id on multiple test. I can hear the threshold break in multi but only because I know when I’m passing the target by the coil and I can wave the target to pronounce the threshold but I believe in an actual environment to be overwhelming and not effective. Again the single frequency benefit only seems to work best with the lead because my test using the coins in single frequency has a loss of 20% average detection depth with both size coils. I hope you do more videos because it seems like the two best videos I’ve seen on KZbin explaining the frequencies are the least viewed when some high view stuff is just trash. Thanks.

I'll try it, but I'm not to sure about this detector when more then one metal object in the hole, it is very bad about down averaging very bad so notching all this out is going to miss some coins IMO.

Excellent way to get the best results from the detector

Still won't find a coun masked by iron

New sub here, very interesting! Happy hunting from Jim and Mason, New Hampshire USA

Nice md say has about as many menus as an minelab etrac sill have the old fbs Teck still works fine like all md

Hope your well friend. Woodchiphustler.

You can't expect Minelab performance from a Nokta. There is a reason why these machines cost less.

Happy Thanksgiving, Bill

You are using three different combinations of frequencies. Different frequencies have different responses to different metals. The ID is going to be different. If you do the same test using single frequency your results will be much the same, different ID’s.

Thia Way You Should Never Relic Hunt Using Machines With VID Numbers, Meters. You miss Small, Lead, Small Brass, Gold Coins. Audio Will allway tell you "Truth" by it tones, but today hunters are lazy to try "Cherry Pick' targets vs Hardcore Relic Hunter that hunt non VID/ Meters Detectors and find that Hi _Tech Machine Miss!

If I swept that bullet with Equinox in park 2 and field 2 and it reads as more like zincoln. I would say Legend has problem for sure.

Looking at your video again. You know what I think. I wonder if you put older version in and checked M1 and M2 on bullet. I bet you will see exactly what you are getting. Remember wasn’t it M3 was changed in update later on. And it works right it seems.

I found flaws with my Legend it went down the road. Something you may decide to try. Is it the shape causing the inconsistency. Might try a spent larger center fire brass round and see how it compares across the board with ID. Might even try something else cylindrical and check.

Always good information. Glad you made a video. You are one of my favorite metal detecting channels. Happy Thanksgiving!

That’s a good video

White's Spectra V3i normalized all metal alloy targets to be the same VDI. How can a metal alloy VDI change It can't? No simultaneous freq./kHz shows the various freq./kHz in different frequency to indicate a nickel is a nickel normalized other than the V3i? In reality they provide very little information other than: Beep, Beep, Beep. The operator becomes frustrated, stating my detector is 'chatty'? Is that what you are experiencing? Thanks for the video.

Simultaneous Mulit Frequency on the Legend IS a fundamental flaw. This has been discussed on Tom Dankowski's forum several times.

There's definitely a problem with the target ID's. Thanks for bringing it to our attention!

Not all zinc pennys ring up at 41. On my Legend I have a hand full of zinc pennys I use to setup my discrimation and there's a few of them that ring up at 46. I get the same situation when setting up my Manticore. I also use a hand full of pull tabs. On my Legend they ring up in the high 20s and low 30s. Maybe a coil issue or a machine issue. Hope that might help you.

Copper is around 14 times more conductive than lead, so I would believe that M1 and M2 are bang on according to their conductive scale. I believe M3 emphasizes the lower conductive targets.

The absolutely best setup for coins!!

I always dig those weird sounds.

You need to do more of these videos
