Took the Explorer 2 with the Joey coil to an old abandoned high school near my house to try to drum up a few things. This school has been pounded over the years by myself and a few other guys. I deciced to dig targets based on sound only and not TDI as the trash is extreme, 3-4 targets per swing. The pocket knife was the first decent find at about 10", sounded good, but read bad. Next came the half dollar, it was a mixed signal with iron tones on both side with hint of s high tone in between. I had to wiggle the coil to get a half way decent sound. The cursor hit a third of the way up the right hand side, but would jump to the top left if I didn't wiggle over the semi high tone. I cut the plug about 5 inches deep, the half was on edge, I was shocked where the cursor was hitting on the screen. It never went top right at all. Not one of the target registered "good" on the meter, but I was only going by a somewhat repeatable tone. All in all, not a bad way the start the first day of the year.
