XP DEUS II WHAT IT IS NOT!

He is correct...I built three programs off three (different) presets. Now I know what I am looking for and how the other multi machine behaved with the higher lower weighted programs on those targets. So I used that as my base starting points on what presets to use. I will get into all that later on when I get around 70 hrs on it...Let me get a little more feel for it.....I think I D norm is good on this one because the I D is SO much better than Deus 1.
 
If I'm reading this right... All programs are ID normed?
So that no matter which program you run in (say) a Quarter will have the same ID number.
 
Im just wondering, the videos I've seen on the D2; the dime , quarter and half are awfully tight together on that upper end VID scale. 94-98. Can XP open this up with a software update/adjustment? Would be nice to see some distance between the silver coin denominations.
 
I would be more concerned that a nickel vs pulltabs didn't move around too much,
 
Yes that's true to an extent but I myself dont concentrate on the nickle anyway and probably a good many hunters also when coin hunting. Nickles are so wasted up in my soil. Come out looking quite redish in color. Only time I will dig the nickle is gold hunting. Then I dont care if the nickle is VIDing before the pull tab or after it on the scale. We are digging it all in the low and mid conductors. I know we are going to dig a 93-98 all day long and who cares what the denomination is ,right. But it certainly would be nice to have some space in there between the silver dime and silver quarter and silver quarter and the silver half. Gosh, I remember those old analog detectors, like the old teknetics 8000. How they had that meter laid out, you hit on a silver and that needle would rise up to a 80s low 90s and wouldn't even flinch. I would say there was at least 4-5 vid #s spacing between each silver/clad denomination. The sound that the tek gave off, just phenominal. Cant beat that old analog beep. Great vids Calabash. Other than the tight upper end scale, the Deus 2 looks to be a winner.
 
Yes the scale is a little tight on the upper end. I don't know if they will change that..
 
Tone improvement, yes yes. I fully agree. When Calabash put out that video on the new square tone, man that just lite me up. Now thats something I can wrap my noggin around. A big reason I sold my Deus 1 is because of the scratchiness of those tones. Wow, you say not much improvement. You must have some hot jacked up detector in that Deus 1 of yours. You did see Calabash's videos. A new detector that simply allows you to do more things with it and better/ more stable than the original. Thats a win win for most of us. Just seeing what old Cal showed on the Deus 2 mono program. That video was incredible. Its on steroids compared to my old D1 and more freqs to chose from. Also I thought I heard Cal say in one of his videos is that VIDs are rock steady, more so than the D1.
Getting back to the new square tone it has, can that tone be used on the relic and deep high conductor programs?

Think I'm going to wait, have not seen the Deus 2 do anything that my original Deus won't do. OK I'll give you the tone improvement which it sorely needed, Multi frequency? Guess time will tell.

Well It's waterproof, it detects in wet sand, it has a separate salt sensitivity, the remote is more rugged, it's simultaneous multi-frequency, and the basic programs all seem to be very hot or should I say the factory programs You can tweak them or you can run them straight out of the box and still be better than most detectors out there. And it's doing it better than the equinox so it just replaced or should I say displaced all of my other machines they're all sold except for one and I'm going to sell it once the D2 is in my hand
 
If you don't hunt saltwater ,or water in general,and your soil is mildly mineralized, and your a field hunter which most Deus users are,,what are the benefits of getting the deus 2 if you have the deus 1 already.
I like new stuff just as good as the next guy. But some of the things I see people posting are legitimate concerns over what this deus 2 will do that a deus 1 doesn't for strictly field hunters with mild mineralized soil. That's the question I think everyone is asking.
If multi frequency is the only advantage to those people I think most should stick with the deus 1 cause in my mildly mineralized soil the original Deus is deep and I doubt simultaneous multi frequency would get any deeper,and I know I wouldn't wanna dig any deeper than what the Deus 1 one already goes
 
DEUS MONO alone is worth the upgrade... That is the Deus I on steroids in that single freq program.
