I've attempted to bring my AT Pro to the beach a few times and leave with little to show for it other than a sunburn and frustration.
One beach in particular has nice dry sand for about 6" then it gets wet. The problem is that I'm getting a lot of nice 90+ VDI signals that read about 8"-10" down that seem to never materialize. I realize upon digging that the sand gets wet a about 6" down and perhaps that's causing a false signal. I'm at a loss of what to do because it seems to be a steady signal (not chattery like what can happen at the waterline before you GB properly). I can't exactly GB in the hole, I might loose the target (if it even exists).
No matter how deep I dig, the signal still reads 8"-10" down from the bottom of the hole. I might mention that that signal that was 90+ before I started, drops to a lower number the deeper I dig. What gives?
P.S. I might mention that I have been finding pennies and nickels (and trash) at the same site with clear signals...
