Difference in sound depth

[dewcon4414]

Just a curious question to see what others think. I know some of us hunt in Cond and other in Ferr.... have you noticed a difference in the depth? I have a tendancy to switch when im field hunting depending on the area. I know the tones are based on which you are using ..... cond or ferr sounds. I wonder how that affects the positioning on the screens? The Ferr numbers seem less reliable. I can count more on looking at the cond number than the ferr in most situations. Thus id think the tones and positioning on the smartscreen are as well. That being said if the Cond digits are more reliable is the processor seeing the target clearer and DEEPER in Cond? Much like the difference between auto or manual sensitivity. Manual is less reliable because it seems less filtered than auto sensitivity, but does know there is a target it cant quite id.

Hey hey, I was reading your post and found it very interesting. I myself do not stick to any setting and try to set it up for the site I am hunting. I like to coin hunt in conductive and find it helps with a good id in normal sites with modern trash. But when I go to the sites that I know will produce old iron nails and the odd shaped peices I use ferrous with little to no disc. I have found that it helps me with falsing, and watch the depth and avoid shallow hits. I hunt by sound as well, and at times will look down but I think its all about the sounds.But I have to say that I would have thought for the money we all spend they would have made a machine that never got fooled lol. Gotta love it though, HH L8R
