I used a 9" Deus in my backyard (first hunt) for about 45 minutes this afternoon and pulled 3 targets, a grommet, small flattened lead, and a bent nail.
I've tested 15+ detectors over my yard in the last 4 years, including 2 PIs, so I wasn't expecting anything easy but I think I drank the Deus separation cool-aid and thought amongst the iron I'd find that high squeaker. The grommet and lead were relatively easy digs amongst the chatter but the nail was a little iffy but had me convinced it was a dime, bent nails fool all detectors I've used except a Tesoro so no surprise there.
I was using Fast with the following adjustments, 12 kHz, 5 tones, Pumping GB 83 (6+ mineralization bars), sens 84 to knock down some chatter.
I'm headed to a park tomorrow in a nearby town for a 3hr hunt. The soil is similar to my yard in mineralization.
What changes would you suggest to the program I used to help with the learning curve?
Thank you & HH
