In Memory Of
From what I have read and watched I think my game plan for hopefully next week is as follows, anyone feel free to offer advice or correct me on what would be "simplest" to learn while I play with this and figure out what I need to do. After a reset, and maybe a quick scan or two to see what happens, I believe for simplicity I should run this under the default setting with no notch and zero to little discrimination if I discriminate. Set my tones to 3 so it is similar to what I am working with. And if I run in all metals, run in motion mode with 0 threshold. Keeping the sensitivity at around 60-70 and doing a GB if necessary. Does that sound like the easiest settings to pick up and learn this system. From what I read many of these settings are "recommended." Maybe this is how they factory reset? Thanks.

Set the thresh lower into the negative numbers...maybe -2, to -4.
Much quieter than 0 thresh or positive numbers.
The higher thresh numbers can get you deeper but the noise factor starts to come into play if you are using some higher sense numbers..even factory levels.
0 disc will be noisier than just a simple move to 1.
The quietest settings with EMI around will be with the disc set between 5 and 20...then you can adjust the sense and thresh to make it even quieter.
This thing should still pick up deep targets in decent soil even with the sense down low down to 1-30 sense...in rough soil maybe higher a little.
That is how I know something is really wrong...you said you turned down the sense and couldn't pick up I think it was a nickel past 1-2".
With everything working right even if you set the sense set at 10 or less a nickel can be picked up way past that.
If you set a notch anywhere, even accidentally, just reversing the process might not get rid of that notch even though the slashes on top of the screen say you did.
The only absolute way to clear out notches of any kind in any area is to do a reset.
You have time to learn to push the settings to the higher ranges, take baby steps, not leaps.
Take time to get used to it...once it is running correctly.
