E-Trac help

[txbluzman]

Just got an E-Trac and I need some quick pointers. Do most of you just use the coin program, adjust it, or make your own? Any tips or tricks for the E-Trac would be appreciated. Thx

I use the coin program sometimes, just open up the right top corner.

 

[txbluzman]

Isn't the right top corner already open in the coins program?

 

[albuilder]

Mine wasn't.

The factory coin program is a great way to get familiar with it if you are new to it.

I'm not new to Minelab products but I am new to the Etrac. I didn't know they eliminated the iron mask function. I tried to take the coin program and open it up a little bit but couldn't figure out how. I read the directions but I need to read them again.

Sabisch's book (Minelab Explorer and E-Trac Handbook) is something you might want to read if you haven't already.

His coin pattern is probably the best overall possible.

If your the same txbluzman I have read about, there are three of us here in San Antonio that use E-Trac's, I have had mine since 2008. We can meet up and trade stories if you like.
