New sifter program

[squirrel1]

I have a few sites where I have killed with both 11" and 9" coils running full tones 0 disc, Deus fast, iron vol off,,sens 88-95, silencer -1 reactivity 2 and 3.

Loaded same program disc at 2.5, sens 95,, run GB at or a couple points above ground---- many many more targets come to life. And used 9" coil reactivity 2 and 3 silencer -1.

Why???

Running disc at 2.5,,, any and all targets that give tone,,,study them,,if no grunt dig,,if smooth dig,,if targets gives a mini iron wrap signal dig...

The 2.5 disc setting,,,allows a user to zero in on select targets,,and study,,,full tones 0 disc won't allow this-- everything lights up.

Try it out,,and those real low not very ideal sounding tones--- watch for them,,,many are nonferrous.

A person will dig some iron occassionally,,,but beleive me this will get the goods.

Good advice it's always worth experimenting to see what settings work on the day.

Have had the same experience while running disc at 2.5. Also, seems to help focus in on the ferrous and non-ferrous targets as this disc setting helps to further quiet the ground noise.

Squirrel, you seem to be a person that knows his way around a Deus and there is logic in what you say. I'm usually a 0 Discrim guy, but I'm going to give that set up a try.

I think you will like it......

The 2.5 disc gets rid of the smaller bits ( no audio),, doesn't seem to hurt separation/ unmasking,,,,and whatever is left,,as far as tone,,,,clean hits of nonferrous, big iron wrap signals- easy to identify,,,,and then the rest,,,bigger than small iron,,and the nonferrous targets that will ring in,,,,,how should I say this,,,,very very sneaky with their tone,,,tone quality the key,,not pitch.

Would be nice to see that program work on a target not dug and doing a video and then taking another iron program that has a higher disc say about 4.5 - 6.5 and not use full tones but 2 tones and listen to the difference if any???

On the more masked ( challenging targets),, tone provided will be generally a tad longer,,,and coil sweep speed may be slightly more forgiving vs higher disc setting,,of course as the disc is raised,,eventually the nonferrous and ferrous targets start melding more(( can't hear the nonferrous in the audio,,,or just flat out broken signal,,or severely chopped.

And remember coil position is key to get the absolute best possible audio on the targets challenged by mineral,,and or iron,,,,and this 2.5 disc setting lets a person home their coil in over these targets of interest--- so one can try and prove if they are worthy nonferrous or not,,,based on audio produced ( overall).

You didn't state the type of area you were hunting. Trashy, clean, heavy mineralization etc.. Would you recommend trying this program in a very trashy area?

You asked a good question.

To begin with,,I was primarily using this setup in older sites with medium to medium high soils mineralization,,,,operating in a dig all nonferrous mode.

Could this be used in a modern site??

Yes,,but remember anytime you start trying to cherry pick---- things can get missed.

But anyway,,,a trashy site that does have nails and iron,,even a more modern site,,,a person could run and if their goal was to try and weed out junk targets,,while still trying to find some of the higher or lower conductors ,,,,notch could be employed.

One thing about the targets ( nonferrous) that are challenging to Deus,,,many times they read 00-07 on the meter,,,or in the 90s with a broken tone.

So a person could say notch 20- say 75,,, and hunt some,,and be able to see some of the high conductors as well as (any conductive target) be it high or low that may be snagged around some iron or nails.

Doing such as I have stated here-- would definitely be considered out of the box thinking,,,but could definitely put some finds in one's pouch.

I have also learned,,hunting in modern sites,,and trying to pull the higher conductors,,,running high notch will indeed bring the tone to life-- say with a high conductive coin and a colocated pull tab,,,,if you just notch the tab,,,audio will fool a person,,if you notch say 15-18 points above tab,,,tone will be high on conducive dime or copper penny and tone not provided on tab,,,,this makes the Deus and it faster recovery work for a person.

But remember doing this,,you also run the risk of missing a good find,,,but some sites have so much trash,,would take a long time,,a lot of effort to dig all.

Really appreciate the info Squirrel 1`. You're always very helpful. I'll try it. HH-MARK
