    Pinpoint mode as sizing and filter

    Last season I discovered the value of using the pinpoint mode for sizing and as a filter and I haven’t seen anyone else post about this feature(maybe I just missed it?). Despite my screen name, most of my hunting is parks, which tend to be trashy. I had read on the forums that pinpoint mode was...

    Why an area is never hunted out.....

    Had some time today and decided to play a little with my MX Sport to see how coin orientation affects TID. Used High trash with no discrimination, sense at 6, Mild sandy soil , ground balance at 62. Using the 6" Detech coil. Planted a clad nickle flat ( horizontal ) at 5". Sweep TID left...

    Something to look forward to!

    I will be eagerly awaiting the reviews of this promising-sounding detector. Very attractive looking package. Very interesting features. All new way to discriminate. Lots and lots of questions to be answered. What I have seen so far (which is very limited) has enough potential that I will be...

    Audio clipping on the Impact?

    Does the audio on the Impact get clipped when a lot of target ranges are rejected? I ask this because clipping is very evident on the Fors Core even with just some rejection, to the point that I usually reduce the amount of rejected targets rather than increase it. A lot of the areas I hunt are...

    Impressive separation with my MXS

    I was at a local park the other day with my MXS set on High Trash program, sensitivity 6, discriminate everything below 61, reject volume 20, threshold 00, tracking on, 4 tone and the Detech 7" coil (awesome coil!) with the idea of just sniping copper pennies and above. Got a good repeatable...

    MX Sport with 7" Detech coil

    Santa brought me a 7" coil for my MX Sport and I finally had a chance to take it for a spin in the park yesterday and today. Ran it in Coin and Jewelry at a sensitivity of 4-5 depending on the level of trash. Nice coil. Highly recommend. Deep and sensitive. Very easy to pinpoint. Found two...

    MXSport at the beach

    I took my new-to-me MXS to the beach yesterday to give her a go on a salt-water beach. The detector has the first update, not the second. First of all, this is my first Whites detector and second, I have only used this detector acouple hours since I bought it. Point is, I have a long way to go...

    Reasonable repair time?

    Had to send my FC in for warranty repair work and am now 4 1/2 weeks out from when it was received by repair center. At what point would y'all say the repair time has become unreasonable? Getting very antsy to do some detecting!

    Got my little oor coil

    Just got my little oor coil for my Fors CoRe and had a chance to try it out in an area that I just had to walk away from with my standard coil-so much trash it overwhelmed the ears! Picked a couple bucks in change out of the mess. Nothing exciting found but coil performed as expected. Have an...

    Investigating VDI numbers

    Well, it's a rainy day here, messing up my plans to go play at the park, so since I can't detect I decided to look into my Fors CoRe VDI numbers to try to understand better what I've been seeing. I have had a couple occasions where I dug a target because the sound was good and the VDI was...

    Mask setting vs depth

    Prior to today, my understanding was that the best depth was achieved with a mask setting of 10. Today, I popped in the video instructions that came with my Fors CoRe. At one point in the video, the narrator says that a higher mask setting will result in better depth. What!? WHAT!?! Well, had...

    Comparison of PI detector and Fors CoRe

    Comparison of the Tesoro Sand Shark and the Nokta Fors CoRe on dry, sandy soil A plot approximately 10 foot by 10 foot was defined in a back yard setting. The soil had not been disturbed for a minimum of 12 years. The Sand Shark was used to locate targets, which were marked with uninflated...

    Fors CoRe on the salty beach

    Took my new machine to the beach today to see how it would perform with the salt water interference. I spent about five hours trying to learn everything I could. The machine ground balanced at 00 in COG mode, which is the only mode that would ground balance on the wet sand. Once ground balanced...

    Pinpointing Feature not in manual

    Just got a new Fors CoRe the other day and spent the day in the yard getting acquainted with it. Awesome detector and sure it will only get better as I learn its language. Anyway, I was watching a video on this detector and the gentleman on it was using the pinpointing feature of the detector...

    Help with choices

    Most of my md'ing currently is beach detecting but I want to be able to detect parks, wooded areas and yards for mainly jewelry and coins. I have found over the years that I really enjoy the k.i.s.s. Detectors that give at least two tones. I am using the Tesoro Sand Shark as my main detector...
