    Pinpoint Mode - Sizing - Coil Stationary - Touching the ground

    On deeper targets (Conductive search setting), when I am scrubbing the ground, my Ferrous number goes to 1 and the Conductive numbers bounce (high 30`s) around--and it doesn`t matter what the actual target is. When I lift the coil, my Ferrous numbers become more accurate. I`m working on this...

    Thank you! I appreciate your effort and interest in helping me sort this out.

    Pinpoint Mode - Sizing - Coil Stationary - Touching the ground

    Strange question, but it has me wondering. Is there an ID difference between having the coil stationary in Pinpoint Mode (set to Sizing) and touching the ground verses 1-inch above? On some targets I`ve noticed a difference. On weak/deep targets, when the coil is touching the ground the target...

    What is the Largest E-Trac Coil Ever Made?

    Hey Elmy! How are you feeling? (I`m hoping that everything is going well and you are feeling strong this spring.)

    What is the Largest E-Trac Coil Ever Made?

    What kind of extra depth will a Detect 21x17 SEF provide over a NEL 15 x 17 DD? Anyone know? What is everyone`s thinking?

    What is the Largest E-Trac Coil Ever Made?

    Yep. I`m not strong enough to swing the Big Nel one-armed, I use both arms for better control.

    What is the Largest E-Trac Coil Ever Made?

    I have a NEL Big 15 x 17" DD Search Coil and I am looking for something BIGGER. (It will easily detect a long-buried 10-inch iron pipe at a measured 5-feet.) Is there anything bigger?? Thanks!

    Odanscoils wrote, `What many forget. The steel tin plated jar lids will most often be rusted. Most rusted thru. The thin tin lids kinda dissolve and crumble. Both creating their typical Halos.` But THAT makes accurately ID`ing the target worse--way worse--times 10 worse. Decomposing sheet metal...

    Coins in containers ~> What signal will I get?

    Exactly. I`m thinking caches and hordes of coins are usually buried in some type of container. People don`t just throw loose money into an open hole, it`s always in a sturdy, durable container like a glass jar or metal pot.

    Coins in containers ~> What signal will I get?

    Part 3 ~ The Silver Tests The jar was filled with 6 Silver dollars and 8 Silver half-dollars, then tested without the lid on the surface. On both Conduct and Ferrous the E-Trac said 1-44. The lid was screwed on, and the jar was buried vertically 9-inches deep in moist, compressed soil. On...

    Part 2 ~ The Copper Tests The jar was filled completely with copper pennies (pre-1982), the lid was screwed on, and the jar was buried vertically 9-inches deep in moist, compressed soil. On Conduct, the E-Trac displayed 9/11-31 both ways. On Ferrous, the E-Trac settled on 9-31/32/33, both...

    Coins in containers ~> What signal will I get?

    Great Suggestion, jughed440, and today I did exactly that! The photo shows an Inglehoffer Horseradish jar, 6 silver dollars, 8 silver half-dollars and 8 silver quarters. (Not pictured, copper pennies which filled the jar completely.) Part 1 ~ Establishing Baseline Values The empty jar with lid...
