Interference problems?

I quite agree with Coenwolf, here in the UK the professionals find it quite acceptable to dig 10 Iron targets out of 100 signals when searching an ancient site.
Raising the discrimination will always lower the performance, not so much in air but certainly in the soil.
However if you want to just "cherry pick" big silver or other highly conductive targets then find a discrimination level that suits.

I agree John,
The 2+ mode with disc set allowing iron to be heard is the best for relic hunting, I use the 2+ mode and preset disc set at 10 and only change the sensitivity level as the ground allows and them fast grab GB. Simple operation, Almost a turn on and go detector.
Merry Christmas,

Hi there Jbow!
I must say that whilst the T2 does indeed have excellent recovery speed and incisive target selection abilities, you can never dismiss the advantage of improving those by using a smaller coil (of the same dimensional ratios).
When the target size remains 'constant' and head size diminishes then without a shadow of a doubt, your detectors resolving ability increases proportionally.
Within the depth capabilities of the smaller head, the flux concentration is increased. Added to that flux concentration gain, is the reduction in mineralisation pick-up. So the improvement is several fold.....MattR.UK.
Excuse the poor quality of the picture, but the 120k limitations to the original is very severe.
It shows JM and Stu examining the Elizabethan hammered silver sixpence, just recovered using the T2.
The late afternoon sun was bringing some extra joy to a very cold winter's day in the Welsh valley. December 2006 has been an exciting month to the Tigers, for finds.
Hope you all had a great Christmas, and may 2007 bring you even better finds....Matt.
