I wasn't sure about this MD at first. Of course watching the 2 shows on tv I figured it would be easy to do. My first night out in my backyard, mind you it was 40 degrees, my detector was beeping like crazy. The manual gives you guidelines on the 3 settings this md has, but no suggestions. Lets just say that first night was a dig-a-thon with ZERO finds. The next day I found an open field next to a old vineyard. I had a little time to kill so I fired the md up and off I went. It was away from power lines and other emi sources so I got less beeps. Spent some time tossing around some coins and practicing, this made all the difference in the world. I found that the far right setting, (I believe auto/notch) was the best mode, with the left sensitivity knob @ 12:45 and the right sensitivity knob @ 3 o'clock. I got a few clean hits. My first find was an old brass hinge. Now tonight I decided to go out into my backyard and give my new settings a go. I ended up finding a rusty nail, piece of sprinkler, and my first 3 coins. 2 modern quarters, (1987 quarter, 2000 state quarter) and one 2000 dime. I was soooo stoked to find those coins. I would of stayed out later but its cold, lol. Anyways, just wanted to say that I think this BH detector is fairly legit. Those coins were about 6 inches down so the standard 8" coil is good. Thanks for reading my ramblings and ya'll have a good night!
and his reply was "why, I find the good stuff now". Enough said!
