Just decided to set it at "I" in iron and take whatever. It's one of my off hunted parks and I hadn't searched in a while. Got a soft but repeatable signal with that telltale little "snap" in the middle. About 2" was a 2009 10k class ring with name engraved! A quarter along with three dimes perked me up even more. Went to my favorite part of the park(basketball court)and a ring next to a pole- cheap costume jewelry. When swinging the coil near the court surface, the Compadre will sound off. One sweep I got a loud signal and thought I got too close to the edge. Upon resweeping, I noticed I got TWO loud, jumpy hits and THEN picked up the court surface. Two $1 coins! Love finding those. Had a fun time.
