Hey everyone I just got an at pro. I posted this in detectors but figured I'd try in this thread as well.
So I have a test garden in my back yard. Have some silver coins burried. I have a quarter at 3"with nails around it. A dime at 6" in a clean hole, and a quarter at 9".
I'm running in pro zero. Iron disc 35, sensitivity tried differant levels iron audio on and off. Ground balance 85. Stock coil.
I cannot for the life of me to get a digable signal on the quarter and nails. And barley get an audible pitch with the dime at 6 inches. If I didn't know it was there I wouldn't find it.
I also layed a copper penny down on top of the grass and about 6 inches apart I put a gold ring a silver dime and a silver quarter to try to get an idea where they hit on the vdi. One target bleeds into the next. Ex. The ring will hit and so will the penny even though I'm hovering around the ring. Is the target seperation with the stock coil just garbage? Papa told me about having issues if the coil isn't connected properly. So tightened it up still have the same results.
Now there is snow on the ground so I thought maybe that had something to do with it. I got my delta 4000 out and it hit all targets no problem. Clearly zipped right over my line of coins and ring. Giving totally seperate ids. Not bleeding together at all. Couldn't hit the quarter with it but never could and the burried dime had a jumpy vdi but crystal clear audio.
I have read about the amazing depth on the at pro and quick processor and target seperation. I have not noticed this at all. Mind you I've had 2 hours with it now. Don't get me wrong there is just somethin about it that makes me smile everytime I look at. I'm super pumped to get into some water with it. I have also ordered the 5x8 coil so I'm hoping the target seperation is way better than the stock coil. Over all I'd have to rate the detector at 6 out of 10 for the money. The delta is far superior in processing speed and target seperation. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong just don't know what. If any one has any suggestions let me know.
I also ran it in standard and the bell tones were clear above my line of targets vdi was jumpy. I thought maybe sens was too high so dropped it right down and still had bleeding numbers.
