A lot of Deus users after they become somewhat proficient with their units,,may indeed settle on running full tones using 0 disc.
This btw is a great way to disect such a site and find the nonferrous targets.
I do recommend though,,,if a person has hunted a site using full tones and 0 disc,,,and if they found some nonferrous finds in a site,,,,try the following and rehunt the site.
You may be surprised.
The Deus when in full tones using 0 disc,,,will sound off on all detectable targets both nonferrous and ferrous (detectable).
But the problem is,,,a person will likely not hear all the nonferrous targets (tonally) to identify and stop and dig.
Lots of times some targets (especially lower conductors) will sound off very close to iron tone signal,,and be missed.
Now running O disc will make the Deus separate/unmask the best,,,,but with all the tones being provided on all the bits and pieces of ferrous,,,,nonferrous will likely be missed.
If a person is using a 9" coil,,,try the following,,raise disc to level 2.5 and runs full tones.
As far as separation/ unmasking,,,differences here vs 0 disc extremely small.
My experiences show,,extremely rare to find a target using 0 disc,,and not be able to hear using disc level 2.5..actually what me be witnessed is the contrary,,meaning the signal more distinguishable using 2.5 disc vs 0.
So when you raise your disc to 2.5... You turn your Deus into more of what I call an isolator of targets.
What does this mean???
While running full tones said 2.5 using 9" coil,,,the smaller bits of ferrous will not sound off,,,bigger nails and iron will though.
So when running 2.5 disc,,,every hit can be investigated,,some will no doubt be full sized nails and bigger iron,,and will be exposed by the way tone Sounds and reacts when coil is passed over priced from various angles.
An op is likely though to latch on to a target,,,sounds closer to iron,,,but doesn't have the raspy sound to it,,,more steady,,,at first hearing this an op likely to think iron,,,after a person digs a few of these,,,you will understand what I am trying to tell you here.
Meter readings,,forget these as an op is likely to see anything in the window to include 00 ( not a typo either).
Those signals that seem to be consistent,,,more steady sounding without sudden rise and fall in pitch--- these are the ones that are extremely challenging the Deus,,,but are providing signals.
A person can also do head to head by finding with disc level 2.5 full tones,,and then run disc to 0 and listen and vice versa.
To close here,,,,folks wanting to run say 2 or 3 tones with a more conventional disc settings like 6.0-7,,, all I can say is you are leaving nonferrous finds behind in your sites.
Key frequecy to use in such sites=18khz btw
