thanks for the settings do ever use full tones?

If it works for you then thats all you can ask.

If there is virtually no Iron try the Goldfield program #10
Sensitivity set to suit the ground conditions
4 or 8 Khz
Reactivity 0 or 1
IAR 3
Press the pin point button pump the coil 3 or 4 times to ground grab (This is very important)

You can use the meter numbers to tell what is iron, big Iron will give a stutter to the signal because IAR is set to 3, it's great fun but you need nerves of steel. I can see this setting working well for the Relic hunters who are familliar with the resonse from PI machines.

thanks and I should have mention that most places I hunt have very neutral soil dont know if that matters when we are talking about the settings thought gold field was for highly mineralized ground.

Goldfield can be used in most ground providing you ground grab your soil, my soil in the forrest is pretty neutral and it works well for deeper targets as it only uses the first order filter (less signal filtering) so it's a pretty raw program. Another use is for hunted out patches, you can gain a little extra depth.
Goldfield won't be for everyone but it's nice to know its there and can be called up with a press of a button if the need arises.
