    ctx 3030 manual vs auto sensitivity

    The sensitivity in Auto is not the same as in Manual with the CTX. Notice the difference in a US Dime in Auto +3 -- the sensitivity is no better than it would be at around Manual 15. The benefit of Auto +3 is the detector appears stable with far less random chirps. But if you are looking for the...

    Thinking about a CTX3030

    All I want is the VID from the CTX with its multiple target color display along with its adjustable tone bins moved to the lighter Nox platform that will add the missing sensitivity to small targets and provide first-class target separation ability. There it is -- the perfect detector!

    discrimination pattern to help block pull tabs

    Some years back, I gathered test data on jewelry with the CTX and E-Trac. The pattern below is where the masses of jewelry showed, which includes both air and ground results. The larger the yellow halo, the greater the number of occurrences. So, yes -- you have to dig pull-tabs of miss out on...

    Summary of CTX3030 updates

    I've been using the DetectorPro "Detecting Pal" sling for the last three years with the CTX and the 17" coil, on the beach and in the saltwater. I typically hunt from early light to about lunchtime, about 5-6 hours. Some type of sling is needed or shoulder and arm trouble it likely from...

    nokta pinpointer with simplex

    The Simplex and Nokta Pinpointer are incompatible. If the pinpointer is within ten feet of the detector both begin to erratically motorboat. The frequency shift on the Simplex will not resolve the problem. Any pinpointer hovering about 12 kHz will do the same.

    Best underwater PI for magnetite saltwater beaches

    Searched around for info on underwater pulse machines/VLF suitable for use at saltwater beaches, this is what I came up with. What's your preference for an underwater detector for use on mineralized salt water beaches? Is there one that is more able than the others? Excalibur II 1000 8"...

    TTF, TTC, 4TF, and 4TC - E-Trac Setup Visualizations

    Sometimes it is easier to understand what the different Audio Tone IDs do if they are displayed in a visual format. Below are the Audio Tone IDs that you can choose on the E-Trac, each with explanation of how to use them (with some subjective input). The visualizations show the TID grid with...

    E-Trac Fe-Co plot for 611 targets

    Just for the sake of doing it, I plotted the target Fe-Co position on E-trac's 35-50 grid display for a wide variety of targets. Some Fe rows are widened due to the number of targets plotted on those rows. There are 611 plotted targets displayed - one square to each, though some more than once...
