First time out with my New/Used Explorer XS

[stan in colo]

Today I went out for the first time to really try out the Explorer..
decided to take it to a park that has been hunted hard for a long time.Figured if I found something good ,maybe it was worth it.Well much to my surprise I did, found 2 mercs in an area I could see somebody had been there within a week or so. a 41 and 43. found all the nickels in one hole.I think Im going to like this machine although it seems that it will take some time getting used to.I then went to an old school,same thing..hunted hard in the past,but i couldnt get the threshold to come back to ID.I dont know what to do in this instance.I pinpointed 1 signal and the ground was like cement.and seemed like it may have had coal ashes in the soil.The school used coal to heat.Any ideas on adjustments so I can hunt this place? I tried noise cancel but didnt improve much at all...stan
