So we FINALLY get a sweet day out before two weeks of downpour coming up. Armed with the Nox 600, the missus and I head off to the beach. When we left the house, it was t-shirt and shorts weather! YAY! when we got to the beach, well it was back to near freezing temps with the cold Atlantic waters and high winds.. geesus what a turn around.
So after a 2 hour hunt in the dry and wet sands, I only hit 2 targets period.. one penny and a money clip, without money of course, and cheaply made.. that was it! What a clean beach! Should have been caps and tabs and... well that's our east coast clean beaches for you.. Used both Beach1 and Beach2 settings.
But went up to the picnic area and the NOX 600 went nuts, picking up solid targets and bounce arounds every few inches.. I tried the various Parks and Fields modes to tame it down, reduced some of the sensitivity, slowed the coil down... a very target rich environment. So this where all the caps, pull tabs and junk went to!
Still being new with the NOX 600 and really trying to learn what it can do for me, I dug up most of the targets found JUST to see if I was actually able to 'predict' what I would pull out of the ground.. Did I learn anything?!
Not even close.. geesus, I'm so confused again... Back to the drawing board once again, when the weather improves.
These dang Canuck coins are not fun with the Nox600...
How was YOUR weekend?
