I was out at a local high school soccer field the other night, and wasn't really finding much. I did, however, encounter a strange audio response from my X-terra 705. I had the sensitivity set around 15 because a lot of the targets were shallow and the ground was rock solid. I could barely dig three inches without my hands starting to hurt.
Anyhow, as I was sweeping the coil I heard a very faint buzzing sound, almost like feedback through an amplifier. It wasn't the null of the threshold or a quick target signal, it was just a very faint electronic buzz. I was in disc. mode with -8 through -2 and 48 notched.
So I went over the area again and pumped up my sensitivity to the lower 20's and got a very jumpy signal. I dug it up and it turned out to be just the top sliver of a pulltab about two inches down.
Has anyone ever experienced this type of noise and is this common? I've never heard it before.
Thanks for looking.
