Tiny G chains an so on qstn

[NikfromFarEast]

Hi guys!
I know that its the common problem, I know that it's a very difficult type of targets, but maybe someone who spent more time than I for searching low signals can help me with wright settings?

I have a fresh water sand beach, with huge amount of nails and rusty chains and foil.
My go to machine is Nokta triple it's similar to legend, but has less settings.
Of course I have to dig foil to catch chains, the iron filter is 1. All metall, low iron break (say 6-8, or maybe 4)
Good ground balance. But what about recovery speed and tones? Fast/slow
And full tones or 2 tones? And what type of sound chain does?
Maybe anything I did not mention?
Thanks for the unswer!

As for me, yes , I had 2 chains this year. One was by chance 1.7 gramms, I dig another target. 2nd one was stable VDI 11 with cross 7 gramms.
Ai gived some common advises, but I try to believe in human experience more. Like scratchy sounds...what does it mean...is it really...

Iron Filter — lean toward 5, not 8. Since you're digging anyway, there's no reason to let the machine make discrimination decisions for you. Lower IF means you hear more marginal targets that a higher setting would quietly kill. You might dig more junk, but you won't miss the thin gold chain sitting next to a nail.

Discrimination — keep it All Metal, full stop. Don't let anyone talk you into notching out the low numbers "just for iron." On a saltwater beach, IDs bounce. Probably the same at a fresh water beach… not 100% sure. A platinum ring and a pull tab can read the same number depending on depth and orientation.

Recovery Speed — stay at 1. Dig-everything hunters sometimes bump this up thinking faster = more coverage. It doesn't. Slower recovery at 1 gives the coil time to fully resolve a target before you've already swung past it. Pair that with a slow, overlapping swing and you're pulling signals others miss entirely.

Tones - Your preference. My preference is "P".

If, as you say, the beach you have in mind, has a "huge amount of foil", then : Why would you want to angle for tinsel thin chains, or micro-jewelry ? Sounds like a recipe for insanity to me.

Unfortunately : Alloyed gold chains (where the detector tries to read one-link-at-a-time), and aluminum foil turds, share the same conductive TIDs. So why not just angle for rings and larger gold ? Those will read in the USA nickel, to tab, and up range. FAR FAR less junk to contend with (and more gold content weight for your $$, to begin with, eh ?)

I'm glad to dig rings) but even earings No more there) it might be only something masked and chains
Thanks for reply)
