Metal detecting with the Deus Sonar program

[@CameronMaser]

Yep that little flutter on the first target was the telltale for deep iron. As you know, it gives a high tone because of the iron halo effect - the "ring" of mineralization particles from the rusting. Great tips! I love your sonar program 😁👍

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks Cameron

Great video Gary and thanks for the refresher on the Sonar Program settings. Very interesting program.

You all make good information videos keep it up. Ps I use a big a hospital syringe cut down 30 mm to use as a protective cover for the dues pinpoint

Good idea mate

Had a Charles 1st shilling, silver roman, sword hanger and a gorgeous sceat out with the sonar at the weekend. Love this program. Thanks Gary

Well done Paul, thanks for the great feedback 👍

I always love your videos Gary, they are always informative and nicely presented. I also like your style of presenting - nice and gentle😀. Sonar program for me on Sunday I think with the X35 coil running at top frequency, see what happens🤣

[@richardtarr2745]

@@The-skillschool I tried the sonar program and compared it against the HOT program then my favourite, the ULTIMATE program. Sadly it didn't hold a candle to either but I can see how it would be useful in iron infested sites. I'll keep it though.

Thanx Gary for showing your finds!! Verry good programm, I use it allready..👍🏻😊

Thanks my friend 👍

[@electricwheels411]

Nice video Gary and glad you chose the right path to find that Hammered. Never knew there was a Sonar Mode as I do really well with HOT and use DEEP to Iron check! Might have to to try out on my next adventure whenever that is

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks John, give it a try and let me know how you get on. 👍

Really enjoy your videos Gary....watched a lot of them and didn’t even own a Deus....motivated me to buy one.....took it out last weekend for the first time and about the third target was a Henry Viii hammered penny....only my 2nd hammered. Keep up the great work!

Great news Mike, keep up the good work.

I found a harness mount on Monday using the sonar program, in conjunction with the xy screen because the ground is full of foil, it did really well.

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks Peter, great feedback.👍

[@pacificnorthwestdiggers4205]

I'm the newbie XP user...... I enjoy your videos and am subscribed. I haven't been able to decipher the deep targets very well. Wondering if I have the gain too high. I would like to know how to get the deep signals to give me a lighter tone, or weaker tone and think I don't understand the settings like I would like to.....

[@The-skillschool]

Audi response my friend keep it around 3 for good depth perception ( XP Deus) The ORX has no audio response feature.

[@derekwooldridge5315]

Great video, thank you. I’m trying the Sonar program on stubble tomorrow 🤞🏼

[@The-skillschool]

Good luck Derek, let us know how you get on.

[@derekwooldridge5315]

Sonar is a great program, brilliant sound when a target is found. No reels finds today but it’s a program I will use on a regular basis, I have faith in it 👍🏼 thank you.

[@The-skillschool]

Great feedback thanks Derek

[@MudMaxMetalDetecting]

I like to use Sonar now and again, my favourite fast program is Hot but Sonar makes a really nice change sometimes. Thanks for the video Gary mate. ATB MMMD

[@powlo1382]

It's always emotional Gary, another great video, I noticed that sonar is very similar to ultimate, still a nice program though, I have a field that will suit it perfectly

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks Powlo, yes the Sonar has a higher tone and faster reactivity. Always emotional 😁👍

[@rikspector]

I like your style. I wondered, I thought you could toss a frisbee in almost any GB plowed field and find lots of ancient stuff, pottery, coins etc but your fields seem real challenges:) Cheers, Rik Spector

[@The-skillschool]

It depends on the land Frederick. Sometimes it's tough, but I like to keep my videos more about the technical aspect rather than the finds.

[@rikspector]

@@The-skillschool I should have realized that, you are filling a niche that isn't covered very well by others, Senor Techie:) Cheers, Rik

[@HolzHammerSagas]

I’m a bit of a fan of full tones ( apart from with the Deep programme) and use the deus lite version... any reason you don’t use full tones with your Sonar programme? Good vid btw!

[@The-skillschool]

Personally the 2 tone Audio is black or white...dig it or don't dig ! Full tones is great but sometimes you don't need all the information.

[@HolzHammerSagas]

gardansolyn good point - thanks Gary - I tend to use full tones on most settings as without the box I don’t have as easy access to lines and numbers... I do like just relying on the audio though ... stay lucky!

[@andynicholls7201]

Hi there, I just got a second hand deus with hf coil and hs4 coil. I have just set up your sonar program. I have been been detecting for a few years but literally got my deus 2 hours ago. I have been using a legend and I do like it but just keep having the feeling I'm missing as much as I find. Anyway, just set up sonar and it comes up with a cross screen, I take it that is x and y screen. Does this program not have the horse shoe screen? Probably a stupit question but I don't have the instructions. Any good tips for me would be appreciated, should I get the Andy sibiach book? I will be watching your vids a lot for a while so I'm sure I'll pick it up. Just to say your very good at explaining things in a way I can understand pretty well so cheers bud! I'm in Cornwall by the way. Got my first hammered coins recently after 4 years detecting but really hoping for a Roman soon.

[@The-skillschool]

Thanks Andy and congratulations on your new purchase. The horseshoe ferrous and non ferrous feature will not work with the Sonar program, but target ID will. Most prefer the XY

[@andynicholls7201]

@@The-skillschool thanks Gary, the coil light is flashing blue, will that continue untill the battery is disconnected? Will this cause the battery to discharge if left on?
