Impressions with 505!

It has been a while since I have used my x terra 505 because I was using a deferent high end metal detector, but the last couple of days I have found things in real depth with the 505. I am using the 7.5 DD coil with and it really amazed me. I have never dug that much to find such a small coin, a venetian tiny hammered coin was almost a feet deep.
 
Congratulations on a GREAT find!
The Xterra series is IMO the most under-rated on the market.
 
Very impressive depth. If you get time I'd like to hear a description of the TID and/or sound that made you dig that target.

I am sory I 've Just seen your message I was in another forum. Well, to dig a target for me is got to be consistent with a tone or if not is got to have the tone you know it's a good thing or coin . Minelabs have this amazing ability to differentiate the sounds so they could be discern with experience and know what are you going to dig, for me it is not just a higher pitch or a lower tone but something within it that makes you decide to dig. How ever sounds a bit like bottomless but even though it happens. I dug with explorer pieces of lead deferent sizes and shapes and I new it was lead just before I dig . I am new with xterra but it does great work especially with the 7.5 coil. I am not watching the tid just the tone. I hope that helped.
 
Thanks for the reply. I like my 705 because of the tones also. I'm not glued to the VID-BUT I always check it when I get a tone I like.(because it's there) *As opposed to my analogs with one tone.
I've never dug a foot but I've gone 9". TID was pretty stable.

GTzer another thing is Gbalance, when stable raise your sensitivity and re Ground balance again, With this way you can ran it with a very high sensitivity. I could n't resist not telling this. Running hot won't hurt, even if you know ground is there.
