After I did the update, I performed ground balancing in the dry sand in all modes, and it ground balanced fine.
In the wet sand, I only performed GB in Beach Mode....fine as well.
Received my headphone adapter the day before and was very happy to have gotten it as the beach was really windy and cold and I wanted to use my Troy headphones. MK audio sounds great in them. Being able to hear the audio better has helped me figure out some of the nuances of deep rusty bottle caps. The ones in the 1-5 inch range are not an issue at all as they sound horrible and the ID is all over the place. It's the deeper ones that fool a lot of units. Experimented switching frequencies to listen to possible differences...19kHz is best in hearing the edges of them (if they are flat) as I could hear a definite difference between a deep cap and a quarter.
Got the 7 inch coil too but did not use it yet. Tested it in my test garden. Can pretty much say for sure it will be a good turf hunter.
For all you silver coin hunters out there, if you don't already know, 5 kHz is the way to go. The MK in my test garden hits all my silver coins a lot better in that frequency. Was hunting in that frequency in the dry sand yesterday and hit a deep wheatie and merc dime.
