    Help-Pinpoint signal peak using White's 12 " coil?

    Tnx. I do have VCO turned on and when pinpointed for maximum depth I try to quickly sight check the coil to see if there is a corresponding recurring reference point. So far the best I can relate to is the upper portion of the small coil area. I don't think it is the center of the smaller...

    Help-Pinpoint signal peak using White's 12 " coil?

    Tnx for the reply. I've tried trying to find a peak point using a single coin on the ground with inconclusive results. I will try it again using a plastic bucket. You are correct about the many signals being processed at once. I guess I will have to get used to digging a wider hole when...

    Help-Pinpoint signal peak using White's 12 " coil?

    Today I revisited a schoolyard where approximately 10 years ago using my Spectrum XLT I found a few common coins (i.e., pennies, nickel, dime) I was curious to see how the V3i performed. It did fine. The few coins found today based on their deteriorated condition and dating to the mid-1980s...

    Help-How do I prevent deselected VDI's from displaying in a search?

    I do not think it is unreasonable to request the owner's manual under "Discrimination" discussion have "Visual Reject" documented in part with words to the effect: "Note: Functions only with the Spectragraph display search option". Reference Spectra V3i Owner's Guide, page 44 under...

    Success! Thank you sir(ak 1234)! I also called White's and left a voice mail of the problem and made a recommendation regarding this deficiency of the user's manual. John

    Help-How do I prevent deselected VDI's from displaying in a search?

    Well now, that's really nice to know after 8 hours of mostly wasted time today. I don't recall reading anywhere in the V3i documentation, disjointed as it is, and even after downloading the additional documentation from White's website, that Visual Reject works only with the Spectragraph...

    Help-How do I prevent deselected VDI's from displaying in a search?

    Tnx. for trying to help. I called for Mary at Whites Tech help to tell me how to do a master reset. Possibly the software has become corrupted. Not a problem. I know the settings I want to reenter. John

    Help-How do I prevent deselected VDI's from displaying in a search?

    I am referring to VDI number display in the upper left corner of the search screen with accompanying audio tone. I want + VDIs with selected audio tone to display and reject all -VDI numbers. I have checked "Visual Reject" under "Discrimination" and unchecked all -VDI numbers but they still...

    Help-How do I prevent deselected VDI's from displaying in a search?

    Tnx. I made the change and verified my discrimination VDI selections. "Visual reject" is checked. VDI numbers 0 through -95 are not checked in each VDI edit box selection. The change did not work. I don't know why it should have. Negative VDI numbers still display with audio tone when doing a...

    Help-How do I prevent deselected VDI's from displaying in a search?

    Hi Everybody, I've had my V3i for several weeks and have a setup situation so far I cannot resolve. I just did a global search in this forum for the topic and received no returns so I am posting a "help" type message. Problem: No matter what setting combinations I select impacting VDIs using...
