I see threads here on some popular moels so I thought I would start one on my new machine. Although not the absolute top of the line, nonetheless, a quality machine.
My goal here would be to have input and reports from users to help out all levels of gamers.
My first experience with the machine was an overwhelming array of tones. While there were so many, I did not know what was a digger or not, I ended up diggin mostly junk. Screw on bottletops were the main target but I did find some clad and a wheatie. I realized too late that I was in a trashy location and would have opted to minimize this if I could do it again.
A fella on another forum told me to leave it in preset and then to dig any signal that repeated in all directions. This cut the garbage down to ~10%. Since then I have found 2 more wheaties and a bunch of clad. Stil hard to get away from the bottletops.
Another told me how to pinpoint which is difficult until you know the technique. This has since been corrected. I am told not to stray from the presests for a while and plan on doing so. With a total of ~ 6.5 hours logged, I know it will take a while to learn the language of the DD and Minelab.
I hunt very slow, I mean very slow and am in search of finding the elusive, deep, all directional repeating signal.
Hopefully I will be going out with a friend soon who is an experienced explorer user. This should yield better ideas as I always want to learn from experience.
Ok, so hopefully there are others here using the SE and can post their respective findings, tweaks and advice for us all to benefit from. I know Angelion is one and I would love for him to share his thoughts as we all know he is KILLING it! more importantly he does it consistantly.
