Minelab Equinox In Deep Mode: Metal Detecting NYC

[@markknutson4853]

Very fancy moves made my day laughing away😅

[@NathanielOutdoorAdventures]

I love your channel Merrill and who you are. You inspire people to try harder not just in detecting but also with each other. These things have an impact and change the way we behave and think. It has not gone unnoticed. Thank you

I pulled a Eisenhower Bicentennial once, Was so excited, couldn't tell what it was at first, the happiness died after I realized what it was ) ; so much for a large colonial coin, lol. Though I did find a Cartwheel one day to make up for it. ( ;

[@DirtyMoneymetaldetecting]

I was an AT pro and max user. Loved those machines. I switched to equinox because the multi frequency setting seemed to delete a bunch of falsing that pro and max or any other single frequency machine will give off. I had gotten used to the falsing and was shocked at the difference the mutli setting on equinox gave. I guess without being too long winded you should have Phil show us a signal he can hear in 4khz and not multi due to depth or whatever. I haven't seen that as the example yet. It seems to me if the signal can still be heard in multi frequency this setting is better to help eliminating falsing and such. You definitely miss signals if any falsing occurs. I did think the pinpointing tip to help determine size was interesting. Usually I swing high off the ground to help determine if it is big iron. I think his big coil is the main reason he is going a little deeper than you. I got a big coil for my pro and it made all the difference. I could pull silver at depths with my big coil my buddy couldn't hear with his stock coil. For sure going to get the big coil for equinox.

[@KS-bh5df]

The green thingy you thought was a bottle cap is the end of a old electrical cartridge fuse I believe. Used in power disconnect switches.

[@wisdomwithwit]

Ya I started doing the same for ground balancing. Been pulling some older and deeper coins since.

[@harrysurtees8710]

Merrill. I've dug two big Eisenhower dollars. Both were found in different 50's neighborhood yards. I've dug five silver dollars, so it just goes to show how rare they are. Love your videos Merrill. Don't listen to your dogs, you are a good guy.

[@OhioRiverHistory]

Another great hunt . Keep killing it

[@beachreaper8138]

Thanks buddy, I needed a refresher on the nox. When I first got mine the dealer said its a great machine, you don't need to change anything, just go out and hunt. I spend most of my time on the beach because in the town were I live in calif you can't detec. But after watching you and a fellow fellow KZbinr named Cory the Treasure Hunter I have started to find some parks. So thanks GLHH Carl

[@elizabethstelling4720]

I was so happy to see all the videos you've added the last couple of days. This one was exceptionally excellent. I think that was not a ruby in that ring but a garnet. I emailed myself the link to this one so I can go back to the settings dialog in the future. Merry Christmas! Can't wait for the 12/31 video!

[@jamesbonss]

Thanks for the settings,happy hunting Merrill

Hey Merrill, Great video, just want to clarify, in 50 tones you do not set tone brakes. you might have ment 5 tones. Thanks Good luck filling the box.

[@davidmorris212]

Hey Merrill, thank you again for sharing another video. You are a very great human. Anyone with open eyes can see that you are, just listening to you. And in saying this you share all your knowledge, even when is shows you made a mistake, you are not too proud to put your hand up to say opps !!! Lol please never change mate. Cheers David

[@Diana-sr5ub]

That ring was just beauuutiful ! The first ring with the ruby . I am inspired but the weather is not.. nor’easter coming in 2 days.

[@denisshort3622]

If you are using ground balance tracking there is no need for sensitivity .All sensitivity is is fine-tuning the ground balance .So you cannot find tune ground balance tracking. Because the ground balance tracking is changing due to the mineralisation in the ground. But the sensitivity setting stays the same. Tracking only used in very small areas where the mineralisation changes. . like on a beach when you hit black sand..

[@wendelhose7257]

HEADPHONES are a must for hearing fine tone differences /the speakers on detectors remind me of the old drive in speakers in quality lol/cheers from oz

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

That’s a great point! And it raises an interesting question. Can a superior set of headphones make sounds even easier to understand?

[@ozzyalchemist8806]

Lol...You ARE such a big kid, plug & play! But finally...our little man is growing up!😂😂🤣 The tracking is only for changes in the ground as you move, you need to manually grd balance to give auto tracking somewhere to start from.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

That’s a great way to explain it Ozzy!

[@robertsalmi3594]

Love your videos! My question is have you ever metal detected outside of NYC? If not where would you like to go to find treasure? There might be some different classifications of unlocking out there!

[@scotthaymen4927]

Love your content and I’m a new subscriber and equinox 800 owner, are you using version 3.0 for software?

[@andyroe2121]

Great video. Thanks so much. I've been using the nox800 for a year and still haven't found silver. this was very helpful. What is the wobble you are talking about. I also wanted to get a go pro but you didn't like the hero 8. Do you have any suggestions. I think you should try to double the amount of gold gold in oz. you found this year next year. Find the best gold settings. Thanks for all the teaching you do.

[@numismaticstacker]

I pulled a clad kennedy! If never seen an Ike pulled from the ground! How often does that happen?

[@bananarepublic4865]

I do not ground balance as my ground is pretty forgiving , I run zero. I do see a problem with you're coil set up . I looks like you have the coil cord going under the shaft not over it . When you set the machine down to dig the shaft puts pressure on the cord connection to the coil and over time will damage it . If I am seeing that right ?

[@DirtDynasty]

Merrill is the Machine!

[@Merk-qc5gg]

Awsome ,when is your next weekend trip out i like to meet up...and learn

[@LobsterClawzRecovery]

I've got two questions. Why not tone break for iron? Negative numbers come up as a low pitch and low volume - unless you want to dig iron? Also, use a 12 -14 setting to catch aluminum - for the same frequency and volume as iron. The other question is why use manual ground balance when you can use auto-tracking - the recommended Minelab method? I saw that you are setting iron on 1, but what are you putting FE 2 on? Here in South Florida, for the beaches, the FE settings vary depending on whether I want to induce more or less insanity with all the iron we have on the beach. If I want to increase my level of induced metal detecting insanity, I use iron set at 0 and FE2 at 2. Otherwise, they're both set at 6. I like your channel. Very funny. For me, there is no Häagen-Dazs moment, it's more like a carrot stick.

[@starkmonstertreasurehunter9863]

I am curious to see a Philip the Nox round-up. How much and what kind of goodies and trash he is digging along with the silver. Happy hunting. Stark

[@denisshort3622]

Whether you have a slow or fast sweep speed! !Your sweep speed has to match your recovery or reactivity speed. Slow sweep speed low reactivity .Machines that do not have reactivity setting the sweet speed is about 4 seconds side to side.

[@kenvansanford6323]

Hey great video What mode are you in? I have been in park 2 recovery speed at 4 and gain at 23. Been finding deep sliver. Not that field 1 or 2 cant but seens the sliver really stands out in park 2..

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

For the first year I owned the Nox it was park 2. Now it is park 1 because park 2 is suited for smaller objects

[@bananarepublic4865]

What he said Try park 1 and the same settings for clean ground , RS 5 or 6 for areas high in junk .

[@jhwk9575]

Merrill you are doing an auto ground balance by pumping the coil and locking in on that number. You’re calling it manual ground balance.

[@MetalDetectingNYC]

Hmmm

Be careful about ground tracking in trashy areas it wants to track the junk makes things worse what I mean leaving trac on may not a good idea

pass it forard=karma...there is a point where the vid no longer represents what it is meant to...you see that with the nails you are digging...the sound lets you know...short and sharp, all ways around....then is it from a depth that you would guess the silver is...I've been experimenting in the two parks in town...all the coins left are deeper than 8 inches...mostly 9-12inches deep, some deeper....the oldtime hunters pulled the easy shallower coins in the 80s...they have all stopped buy to see what they've missed...many tell me the park is hunted out and for the surface to 8 inch mark they are mostly right.....but deeper than that it is a whole new world or old world.
