Nokta Makro Legend feedback, use, comparisons, etc

I am a common sense kinda guy.
I don’t hang out in areas or post in threads I have zero interest in, or don’t like the content/subject matter.

Real simple.

You folks have a nice day.
Maybe this stuff is over your heads. I don’t know.
 
When I see all the button pushing and surgically placed targets to acquire your desired results, both good and bad, that's when my common sense steps in as well as my comments.
 
My desired results is show honestly comparing the units. And let folks watch if they want.
Do all models perform the same? In every scenario. Nope.

Users of the detectors I show may benefit too.

Video showing how to spot deeper bottle caps with Legend.
Expect to see 10 plus jump on ID value comparing multi freq to 4khz. With 4 kHz giving the higher ID.

How about this idea.
Have a hot key added via update where 4khz use can be used on the fly. To help spot these deeper caps.
Press and hold button and sweep and note ID and release. Then take whatever action one wants. Can be used on more shallow targets too.

Another grand idea by the shooter.

Now bottlecaps caps using multi seems read in a certain range on detector. Not like a person would be checking every target located with Legend. Those in the 25-35 range I would.

TSS, my point is the old nail and dime trick has run its course. Don't think it really means anything as it has been shown to go either way by different metal detectors or testers depending on who they were working for.
I would be willing to accept it if I ever hoped to find those items in that particular placement under the ground but 2x4s, square nails, and coins have not shown up, in my experience, lined up as in your tests.
I did appreciate the Legend field dig test where the other detectors were left in the truck.
Thought you was on to something but you back slid into the Deus II sales pitch today.

Just go away.
Notice my video above.
Why did I do?
Think about. Surely you can figure it out on your own.
Oh and a suggestion to boot. Lordy mercy.
Why would I waste my time on a model I am supposed biased ??

You are the one biased. Biased towards me. Obvious.

Sorry but I'm your huckleberry! 🤣
 
How much am I making posting data about Legend and doing videos?
Elzippo.

Get a life.

Oh.
Seems my subscribers are picking up during last few days. Wonder why?
 
Video.
My take on the Legend audio quality. This model in top tier overall compared to lot of models that cost more. Some of them a lot more. Tonal options for pitch, volume is grand. And when used tone sounds grand. Nokta Makro left few stone stocks unturned when it comes to the audio. Imo they worked real hard to get the audio to where it is on Legend. Might be Legendary audio.

The little "hot key" button that you can push on the fly ? Guess what , that is called a PINPOINT button.
 
Video below edited to give better demonstration..

Xp Deus 2 used to show what would be better level of volume for lower gain setting.

Are you saying a Legend sounds better than a CTX in 50 tones? FWIW i use Sunray pro golds only on a CTX. Nothing else.

Well for what a CTX costs. It don’t sound any better than a Legend. How’s that.

Interesting! Also i never use an external speaker. If i had to use one i'd quit detecting. My Deus II i got two sets of back up water phones if the first set goes out. That's how bad i hate speakers on detectors:laughing:
