Why does whites spell out what the potential targets are in written words instead of using a ID legend? Saw a video somewhere that showed the screen on a sport model and they couldn't even spell Quarter right. Another question is why so many tones(20)? No way a person could remember what they all were assigned to.
 
You can adjust how many tones too use. I just go by sound mostly. Consistent vdi #. If it jumps all over the place I just keep moving

With the 8 tone feature, 5 distinct tones stand out clearly: foil, nickel, tabs, zincers, and clad. After a little use, I could walk thru trashy sites just using the tone feature. All are solid tones, except zincers , which are a mix of the two highest tones. The only time I used the ID was trying to separate statabs (22-2:geek: from nickels (18-20).

It's not that they couldn't spell Quarter correctly, it's because that part of the display only has a 6 character limit. Quartr is easier to understand than Quarte
 
Never can have to many tones..
