When I go to set up my machine at a new site I often have trouble getting the ground balance set. I know that I won't be able to do it above a piece of metal so I normally put it in 'All Metals' mode to sweep around for a clean spot. Then, even at a spot that seems to be clear of metal, the machine wants to ground balance below 40 which of course doesn't work. I start with the machine about 6" off the ground as per the manual and then move it down and pump it an inch or so off the ground. Even before lowering the coil it often just buzzes. Am I missing something? Is the soil around here on the west coast of Florida that full of trace iron?
