Iron grunts

Ronstar

Well-known member
I got to the point in the Old Arboretum that iron was out beeping other targets. I normally run the F75 in Disc Mode with Discrimination at 10 and Notch at 1. I like to hear iron approaching and normally it doesnt bother me to hear the constant little 1-5 number grunts.
The Old Arboretum has a lot of old iron apparently buried within its confines. Yesterday I tried first to turn up Disc to 15 to stop it but it continued so turned notch up until first line in foil shows (I think that means iron should be silenced?) I still got low grunts but not as bad.
What am I doing wrong?
 
Hi Ron....if you are still getting iron grunts with the disc on 15 you got a iron number notched in. Do a factory reset to clear the iron notch and raise your disc again.

I relic hunt in one tone,disc @5,dig everything above 10vdi.My understanding is that when you disc above 6vdi(or switch to another mode)the detector automatically raises the disc to 15.Good targets mixed in with iron or in “hot” dirt give skewed vdi readings even shallow ones.
 
I will try this gentleman, thanks. I am getting used to the little grunts which tells me I should be getting into a target rich environment. But, I am getting a bit tired going after the 90-95 numbers that say 5” and at 5’ I give up....?😂😂
 
Looks like in order for me to know for sure if this works is to get back in the Arboretum.......
