Fast Program cranked up too much?

[cometguy]

I am new to the Deus and hunting in the provided programs. I don't have any trouble digging coins out in open areas but when I field hunt old house sites I get confused. Is it possible the fast program is too powerful when faced with all of the surface metal and debris of an old house site? I think I have trained myself to listen for softer signals to find the good stuff with other machines. It seems like the Deus blasts loudly on targets seven or eight inches deep. I also wondered where people are running the headphone volume? Sometimes it seems like I have a big halo of noise on these sites with no distinct signal. I think the detector would still work through this and give you a good signal if you were tuned in enough to catch it. I know this rambles a little but I am pretty excited about the Deus and really think it will be great once I figure it out. I would love to hear your thoughts.

Deus fast is not too powerful at all, in time you will probably find out for yourself and you will even crank it up. I don

Everything DD said.

As far as the volume goes: I keep mine at an ear-friendly "4" at most of my sites unless they happen to be particularly noisy. Too many detectorists out there with hearing problems.

Old houses are just hard to hunt period. So much iron in the ground is tough. A basic 1 modified program works best foe me in those areas. Just have to slow down.

I highly recommend it.

and let yourself be guided by your ears
