Help me understand pinpointing

You can practice in your yard or right in the living room of your house...toss some coins on the floor and cover them up with a towel...then practice finding them...You can get PP education right there in your living room stark naked and watching American Idol! Like I do!

You should be able to bend over and touch the coil underneath the towel with your finger..or at least in a golfball sized area..its just practice and hearing the tones ..

Your settings may be too hot, you may find you can 'hop coil' and not use the PP button at all...I 'Hop Coil' to pinpoint, I havnt pushed the PP button in 10 years..Learned this on my own by dinking around practicing for the fastest and most accurate method of isolating and pulling targets in junk...

Here's a section that should be of help too -

Edit to add: oops, you don't mean a separate pinpointer do you ?
