..and no ones really field tested (I know of) the HF coils yet...that's probably another ballgame. That's one reason I bought the 11 coil, knowing they were introducing these new smaller coils.
Maybe a good used 9 would serve me well instead. Or keep swinging the 11.
Could be,,I may try one,,still haven't made up my mind.
Having too much fun with the old 9" coil right now.
Some thing else here.
Deus is different no matter what version from a lot of detectors.
I'm no engineer, of any kind.
But Deus is not a detector where a go no go standard is applied exactly vs a lot of other detectors.
Moreso,,Deus,,and with V4 here,,,the reporting,,,the untangling of mineral,,and or ferrous,,,program I think is changed where the (space) between reporting ferrous and nonferrous is more stretched out cs older versions. ( depending on how one looks at this they could say compressed too)
Meaning it takes less of whatever (when detector) is over nonferrous target to set off the audio,
I notice audio is generally more broad vs 3.2 version even on masked targets.
Why did they change disc,,allowing negative???
Good question,,,but this is not the sole reasons behind the sauce with V4.,I know this from yesterday.
The window(s) under the coil,,they way is it working using V4 is different.
What about reactivity 2.5??
Is this one of the keys???
I say yes,,but is more dependent on each actual detecting scenario.
Folks need to remember,,old 3.2version,,using reactivity level 2,,, some targets masked gave longer audio vs reactivity 3 same target swept. But what about coil height advantages??? Moreso here reactivity 2.
So with 2.5 reactivity,,,depending on detecting scenario,,using this setting,,,could allow more coil height and detect,,and allow more crippled nonferrous to be detected vs reactivity 2.
It is very astounding what happens to Deus coil footprint/ performance when reactivity is changed,,,it is not all about recovery speed either.
I think the reason for the negative disc,,one reason anyway,,,folks will see where I have talked about the infamous murmur tone 3.2 would do on some crippled targets.
So far I haven't heard any of these,,and I have been listening too.
They by adding the disc range,,keeps targets from drivin audio tone wise as close to iron range.
I do notice target response on smaller targets masked seems higher using V4.
This though is only speculation about extra disc range.
Could only partially the reason,,,maybe they did something else.
I will alway be on guard for that kinda sounding tone,,,just one of those I can get out of my mind.
If after 6 months of running V4.,I don't hear any,,or recover any targets that are providing,,maybe then I can forget.
