Simplex Chatter GOOD or BAD? Here Is My Best Tip! PART 1

[@richmikesell812]

I rarely watch detecting vids of just pulling up targets, I like to watch instructional vids where I actually learn something about detecting. You guys are beginning to be one of my favorite's.

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

Thank you sir for your kind words. We are trying to get better with our content. We are open for any suggestions. Just a dad and son enjoying the hobby together. 😉 thanks for coming along and watching and commenting.

[@DiggerX]

Wow that was so nice of you guys to give them boys detectors. I left you a comment on your FB page about my favorite park and overlaying old maps on to todays maps of my favorite park. Great job.

[@AquaLandRelics]

Thank you digger!

[@groundskeeper5292]

Good stuff. Southern relics recommended your channel. Figured I'd check it out. Been using my Simplex for a while now, where I hunt in the woods, a 24 signal is often an old 1900s shot shell. Glad to see you digging pull tabs...! Lol! Agreed, you find rings without digging pull tabs.

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

Thanks for stopping by. Appreciate Southern Relics for the shout out.

[@fangirl988]

That was so nice of you two, that the reason you’ve got the best metal detecting channel on KZbin, genuine

[@AquaLandRelics]

Thank ya!

[@AquaLandRelics]

Hey this is Mike. My chat is not working. But thanks for the comment and always nice words

[@Bandit1978]

It isn't the chatty signals in the ground that botherr me with my simplex, it is the high sensitivity to EMI ( like power lines ) that gets me. I have to turn mine down to like half or lower on the sensitivity to get it to quit chirping even when the coil is in the air. It also hates my Garrett pinpointer. I have to run it in beach mode if i want to crank up the power and then I lose a lot of depth. With all that being said, it is an awesome machine for depth.

[@adventuresinmichiganwlisa9852]

Nice video👍👍i recently got a simplex and i agree that it has that fast recovery speed!! Thanks for the tips on the simplex, any tips are for sure welcoming👍👍. That was awesome the boys got each a detector! It'll bring the next generation into this wounderfull hobby of metal detecting and treasure hunting👍👍😁much love to the both of you from Michigan

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

Thanks Lisa that was the reason I ever decided to youtube was to give back to the hobby and help whoever I could. Thanks for watching and commenting. Much appreciated.

[@britpaddler1]

Very interesting video Was on a beach the other day with my simplex going off like that hadn't happened before kept pulling bottle tops and then exactly same number rang up a silver ring

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

Thanks for watching. I love hunting the beach. Never know what may pop. Congrats on the silver ring

[@joestagner7817]

I get a lot of noise on my Simplex chatter whatever it is called. So I dropped my sensitivity way down so by doing this don’t I lose depth

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

Yes you will lose depth, but If you have heavy mineral soil you have to make adjustments. But you will know an actual tone from emi. As you hear in this video. I have a lot of so called chatter. Just gotta be able to siphon through the trashy, and the chatter. But with the simplex I keep my sensitivity about ¾away from full. Higher than that you get a lot of chatter.

[@curtisfogg5294]

Thanks, I'm new with the simplex, lots of chatter, I will slow my swing down.

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

Hang in there. It's a great detector once you learn what the machine is telling ya.

[@TexasPlugRiches]

I have had silver rings come up at 90-91, and 67 (penny signal), and a silver bracelet 20-21. Great video! God bless!

[@HappyHermitt]

Im learning mine. Bought a Simplex as my first. I dig so much trash, so a penny is a happy dig.

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

Yes. The simplex was my 3rd detector. And I understand the penny being cool. But after you learn your detector. You may start avoiding them. Or maybe not. It all depends on your goals. Thanks for watching

[@JusDirtfishin]

That was pretty cool of you guys to give those kids the detectors. Look like it made there day. Hopefully they put them to good use. Yeah unfortunately we can not dig all of the signals we come across. We would be in one spot the whole time we are out. I’ve been in areas that the machine never cut off it was so full of stuff. We just have to pick the higher signals and decide on what to dig. The Equinox is the sameway. Like you saw. Pull tabs is in the good range. Thanks for sharing guys. See ya in the next.

[@AquaLandRelics]

Thanks for the awesome comment !

[@JusDirtfishin]

Anytime my friend. That place sounds like it is loaded. I agree no place is hunted out. I’m a strong believer in that.

[@nileswright8915]

I too like the chattery! great video, keep up the good work and the education of the peeps! ans is that a snake skinz cover on the simplex? ;)

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

Thank the reasoning behind youtube was to promote the hobby. And yes it's a skinz. Like the cool look. 😁

[@BackroadsMetalDetecting]

Thanks for the tips! Very cool with the gift of detectors for those kids! Nothing better than passing our passion for the hobby on to youth! Jim Parry Backroads Metal Detecting

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

Thanks Jim. That was my main reason for ever getting into youtube was to give back to the hobby. Thanks for watching

[@papagigo1]

When do you ground balance ?

[@AquaLandRelics]

I ground balance when ever I feel the need. Sometimes if it's getting too chattery I'll ground balance. If I notice a change in the soil type I'll ground balance. Then if the bar on the bottom of the machine starts to fluctuate I'll ground balance. But only takes a few seconds. So if you think about it best to do it my opinion!

[@joestagner7817]

Need help with either the Simplex plus or Equinox 600 what are the Best settings for either machine

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

There really is not much as far as settings on the simplex. Pretty much you chose from field and park. And roll with it. Nox I haven't used so no help from me on that aspect.

[@ronsmith8434]

So is it good for coins, rings in America? What numbers are going for? And the setting you use?? Thanks

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

I'm in park 2 mode. I dig a pile of coins. But most of my gold rings are in the 20-50 range. Nickels are like 23. Penny's and dimes, quarters are usually 70-91

[@southernrelics]

Great tips Mike. I have been thinking about doing something similar at one of my permissions and digging the mid tones in day, then go back and dig the high tones to see what I come up with. This video will do well.

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

I seen your review on the headphones. Thanks for the comment and watching. We are trying to living up the channel. And have fun at the same time.

[@diggingwesttexas3342]

Great video. I know I am missing a lot of the good stuff and I need to change the way I am detecting. I have been skipping the 20 thru 70 VDI's for the most part. I guess I need to start digging them. I hunt in trashy areas and use the SP24 coil on the Simplex +. I like it that you restrict yourself to certain numbers on a given day. I think I will try that in a couple of areas that I hunt.

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

Yes I have only did this in this one spot. We have done dug most of the good high tones. And I hate digging pennies. So tried this technique so I can concentrate more on the lower tones and Block out the 'penny' just ordered the Legend so looking forward to what else I can find at this location

That is awesome!!.

[@AquaLandRelics]

Yes. The young man was pretty excited. His dad said he was kinda shy. So he didn't show the emotion. But we were happy to give them both brand new detectors. That's our 3rd detector giveaway. And may be a bigger give away in the near future

[@chrisfegan3475]

Love that you guys do that. Main reason I subscribed 👍👍

[@AquaLandRelics]

Well thank you. When Dad and I started the channel. That was our goal. Was to give back to the community and to our subscribers. We have been blessed with some great subscribers. Here and on tiktok. So only fitting to give back. Stay tuned when we hit 5k subs....... ya don't wanna miss. 😉

[@wiki1979able]

Chattery Because of too many Targets ,I think you are partially right but I & most people are referring to it being highly susceptible to EMI ..Next to powerlines ...my ATpro will out hunt the Symplex all day long..The stability can’t even be compared as the Garrett has much better stability running 15 kh .. Yes it’s slower but cleaner sounds and much much more stability. I really like my Symplex especially for the price but it is one of the most unstable machines next to heavy EMI

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

I agree but disagree I hunted a major powerline last year with both machines. Honestly the simplex was the quieter of the two. And I was able to find an eagle breast plate there. That for no doubt in my mind I would have not found with the pro do to emi. But love the pro and would never say anything bad about it. But all machines we can find weaknesses to. We just got to learn to overcome them. Thanks for the comment. Was much appreciated

[@wiki1979able]

@@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711 it is very interesting to hear different results..and yes every MD has its strength and weaknesses...for instance I like using the simplex in open farm and in the wood and use the pro in EMI old homes parks ..it what works for me ..thanks for posting

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

@@wiki1979able very very true. I've said it in many videos. Doesnt matter what detector you have. Learn that detector. You can have the best machine on the market. But if you dont know how to operate that machine. Might as well stay inside. Learn tones VDIs second

[@modigging7098]

What version did you run on the Simplex? 2.78?

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

2.78. And I like that version. I hear a lot of complaints. But I have none.

[@markdoehrman4447]

Planning on getting the Simplex soon. What version do you prefer?. Im looking for fast recovery speed and depth. For last fours years I've been swinging Eurotek Pro with Mars Tiger 10"by 15" coil, it's good for the deeper Indians and silvers.but really suffers at times with the EMI, Eurotek can't ground balance and no frequency shift.

[@mikekeeferwithaqualandreli4711]

I use the 2.78 and have no issues. The recovery speed is totally awesome. And it discriminates very well. It loves old rusty bottle caps. Comes up as a screaming target. I have found some great Relics deep. I find you gotta be slow with the coils to hear those faint deep high signals. I see some people swing very fast to each his own

[@MrLerosh]

Good guys,,now he's bitten with the tektin bug,, Lordbaltimore,, 😎
