[ it. I know that my F70 is find what others have missed, or skipped over. Well, thanks guys for all the help and advice. Oh, and I did reset sens. back to a +3 and that helped quiet things down a lot, plus the new coil 11"DD replacement all is well.[/quote]
Boy did I goof -- I am quoting myself, and embarrassed to admit I meant to say - 3 not +3, later I found I could search - 2 and even up to 0 On last thing for anyone chasing this thread -- The problem I had listed in my earlier field experiences with the chatter and I found by moving the Disc level number down from the 50 down to much lower numbers -- seemed odd -- well it turned out it what the Notching feature that was causing this -- having something to do with the notching doing the opposite of Disc, so if Notch is set within the parameters of your Disc level you are not really Disc - ing out but putting that junk target back in. My hunting grounds are full of trash and the excess chatter was coming from the Notch and Disc setting not being set properly. So, if you are experiencing something similar then go to Notch, using the minus button set the Notch setting to number 1, the lowest possible, this essentially turns the Notching feature off, then you can use your Disc setting without the Notch getting in the way. If you want to use the Notch feature then reset your Disc level to a lower setting, like 4 or less and then use the Notch to cancel out the target ranges you don't want, like iron, foil, tabs -- I turns out the Notch and Disc bumping into each other are not mistakes but another level of opportunity for adjusting for target separation and selection -- you know, for those not as mentally challenge as myself. Once again thanks to the guys on this forum my experience with the F70 just keeps on going, from I'm hating this, to a love/hate to a pure love fest -- the Machine has not changed, I have. Thanks guys for the support and taking me under your wing. What a fun hobby -- I always take the time to stop and just look around, watch the geese fly over, greet a friendly dog and engage questioning park visitors and always giving a howdy to the the park workers and rangers. Peace, Dan
