Thanks bud.. the first half is diggin silver. The last half shows IDing good target/bad target. The last dig ID's multiple which ended up being a coin spill...

Nice Evan - watched a bit of your video earlier. I had a multiple target "target trace" my first hunt out. It caught my attention and then I noticed the double beep to boot. That won't always be there but it was a nice confirmation.
The target trace feature is for sure going to add new aspects to hunting.

Excellent video!

Thanks guys..
Yes Albert the multiple targets in target trace is Unreal!!

Cool video. Thanks for taking the time to put it together. Hope you get more time on that piece of property.

That's an incredible video. Especially that nickle, penny and dime in the same hole. I'd like to know more about GoneHunting's belt setup too. I'm still trying to get mine to work easy for me.

Evan - I meant to ask you something. In the beginning you were having some problems with the performance or your results with the CTX and then you switched to an open combine mode with ferrous coin after talking with Digger.
Have you tried switching between modes (using the shortcut user button) to see if combine is actually that much better? (Was it more the ferrous coin setting perhaps?) - Not sure what you were running before. I'm early into the investigation and don't have anything to report yet regarding e.g. 50 Co with minimal disc vs. an open Combine.

Thanks
Albert

That is a great video. Were you finding any just iron targets that were acting the same throughout the day?

Yes I have been switching between my Multitone and my Combined.. I am trying to find a quieter setting trashy sites.. I have come across a yard that is littered with tiny bits of copper house wiring.. most are small, less than half an inch.. I think the CTX is more sensitive to smaller bits than the E-Trac... But in heavy trash(iron)vs good conductive, deeper targets I think the Combined is better.. I honestly think you will like the opened combined alot better than decrim with multi... at least I am so far..I have gotten so used to hearing the iron that when it nulls in multi I feel like I may be missing targets.. I need to test a strip..with the multitone first, marking good targets then go back with combined and see if I missed anything.....

I am posting a vid tonight that shows my belt.. I got tired of the cheap W@l M@rt tackle bags breaking and not lasting.. this new set up seems a heck of a lot tougher...

Are you meaning bigger iron sounded like good conductive.. yes a couple of times, I have a setting that I am trying to get rid of or to identify the larger/deeper iron false..as soon as I prove this mode I will post it..

Thanks for the reply's... Evan

 

[earthmansurfer]

Thanks Evan - I really DO HOPE for a 50 CO mode with an iron tone bin! I miss those warble sounds that 50 CO gives and Combined doesn't. Would be interesting anyway...

Funny - I really feel the same way about missing things when I hear those nulls, as the nulls are usually longer than the iron grunts...

[Gonehunting]

as the nulls are usually longer than the iron grunts.

That is the key point right there.. when switching back and forth.. you can hear the difference in the null and the iron.. very noticeable time difference!!!

Thanks, Gonehunting. I think I'll go that route, too. And thanks for explaining the Molle system. I was looking at them on ebay and it was a little confusing exactly what you got and what would work with it.

Nice video showing multiple targets on the screen at once congratulations.
