Be kind KOB. He’s a detector tester, crossbow tester, ATV tester, car tester…..
Could I spot some can slaw using a metal detector vs a gold ring? Even if the 2 read identical ID in meter for ID when sweeping? Hmm

I’ve done my best to get something out of his videos and information he keeps posting. Absolutely nothing I can use or put to work in real life detecting. Sadly this guy has posted this same garbage everywhere and any place that he can. Hundreds of pointless videos and posts all over multiple forums. Sad. No telling what he could find if he put that much effort into research or detecting in the field. Not trying to be rude or mean. Just the facts.
Just because you fail to understand or comprehend what I have been showing and talking about doesn’t make it rubbish.
Quite the contrary.
I am getting reports from actual users of the equipment. They are quite satisfied what they are able to do using this.

Yeah……right. Talk is cheap. Show us all of the gold or rings and not pull tabs or canslaw that your videos keep showing. It’s easy to say that you are changing the odds. I’m sure you and your reports are not finding a lot of gold. The lack of finds speaks volumes about how great your knowledge of detectors and their use really is. It takes a lot of effort to get gold on land in public places consistently. There’s a reason why the same detectorist keep finding the best stuff. You said it yourself rubbish.
Maybe you should go watch Paystreak. Think the gentleman said it had been 7 months since he had found gold ring.. This dude detects a whole lot, and he digs a shxtloads of signals, parks, playgrounds, curb strips, etc,
He lives in Oregon I believe.
So took him 7 months to find gold ring since last time.
There probably ain’t many folks in USA that has dug more holes on land than this gent detecting in last 7 months.
So he didn’t find any gold until lately since 7 months ago.
Does this mean his skills stink or his detector?
No, it means he didn’t get his coil over any gold item and the detector sounded off with any kind of reasonable signal.
There are folks out there hunting and ain’t finding that much gold like they use to. There were even some I believe that commented as such in the gent’s video I am referring to above. Gent posted video 2 days ago. If you care to watch.
You see how this works…..
You know you are looking at this backwards.
It’s what you don’t have to dig what am I talking about in this thread.
The process doesn’t manufacture gold rings.
It should cut down on some of the digging for some folks though,
Was out today in couple sites.
And showed some bs behaving targets in gold ring range. And dug them to show folks what they were.
Some were even near basketball goal at monster sized house site,

TN what you did today means nothing. Anyone with any machine could go out, dig 100 targets, get no gold and say” see, I was right. No gold in gold TDI range here and my nifty coil said so”.
Opinions vary it seems. Had gent few days ago call a target a nickel with Manticore using
M8 coil. I looked at it with hf2 and said no nickel. And guess what? It wasn’t a nickel. It was round shaped aluminum flattened out. Gave no ID rise to speak of with hf2 coil increasing freq. Oh yeah using lowest MF, Deus 2 user using hf2 coil would have thought nickel. Even me.
Went to highest MF no dice. And called target not a nickel.

Few of those melted turds checked today. With the coil. The one’s I checked DO NOT behave even close to the gold rings I have and the gold rings (numerous) my bud has checked using this hf2 coil.
Not one since the start of this thread.

He’s not showing how to find gold. He’s showing how not to find gold…. promote the d2 coil and direct you to his nonsensical videos.
No I am showing the behavior of the detector. And calling the targets.
If I knew where a gold ring was exactly I wouldn’t a metal detector. Hmm

Go ahead there Stetam get you a camera and take your detector and go locate gold ring range signals and call them.

Quite a thread. I figured it would be. When you think about the title I used.
Seems select digging gets smaller attention when it is dealing with high conductors - Coins, silver rings, etc.
But when the expression gold ring is used in same sentence as expression select digging is used folks get a bit excited.
But this excitement here seems is not the jubilant type excitement. Go figure.
Yeah guess I’m the first one here to talk more about a more detailed way to select dig gold rings. That really involves no disc or notching like some have talked about in the past. And really has little to do with audio quality the detector gives.
Also let me say this. A piece of iron using MF model detector could exist near a gold ring. Yet the detector gives ID in gold ring range. Question..Could the tonal nuance of the signal be negatively affected meaning user hears the audio of gold ring yet hears no iron tone and thinks uh oh not a gold ring sounding target and walks. Gold ring there the whole time. Or gold rig is tilted, this tilt could drive tonal behavior and audio nuance. This kinda gold ring might be walked on instead of dug.
So more careful study using this HF2 coil could indeed give use more info in which to base dig/no dig decision.
I showed videos using at least 2 MF models made by 2 different manufacturers on the above.
No iron tone heard.
So user wouldn’t even maybe think about calling ID into question maybe. Or call the audio quality of target into question.

Sounds like a final conclusion to me. Now maybe everyone will have more time to get back to the fields/parks/beaches and go in search of the elusive gold treasures.I don't think we will ever see that in our lifetime
Disclaimer.
It was the stryo foam blocks where I spotted this behavior initially. Go figure!
How do you like me now?
And additional test, second test I was able to discover there as well. Second test took a while. I got there though.
And my tests to use to gauge masking were done there as well.
Ironic thing is this was discovered by a person who had done little gold ring hunting in his life. Hmm
Gotta watch ole Sharp…
I’ll never forget what this young commissioned officer said to me in USAF. He had made Captain. I got to watch him move up the ranks since being newly commission officer. He said “David you’re a good guy to have around”. I’ll let you guess what he meant by that comment. Red headed sharp thinking officer in USAF. First name John. Last name Devane. Hadn’t seen him since 1995. Last I seen him was in the grand canyons state of Arizona in the city of Tucson.
