I was trying different setting as far as sensitivity and volume trying to bring out the various tones with my sov.
I have come up with a combo of settings between the earphones volume control and the volume control on the gt that really gave the tones a much better or cleaner sound for the different object being swung over.
At first I figured I need either the sov or the phones up full volume to hear whats going on. I was swinging over two different pulltabs about a foot apart on the ground and with the volume full up on phones and at 3 oclock on detector control I the tabs came in very close almost indistinguishable between them I started to reduce the volume on the phones and kept swinging test and all of a sudden after further reducing ( tweaking ) adjustments I got a sort of not loud any more but a type of distortion but different sound between the tabs I reduced ever so slightly more and I obtained a very new distinguishable sound for each tab. At this phone control setting other targets took on much better different and clear sounds, the sound of a nickel so very much clearer then with the volume on the phones up high. I tried this with another set of phones and again varying the control off the highest set point got me more clearer signals. I tried different settings on the detector but not such noticable difference as with the phones. Killer Bee
and Calrads. It seems at the highest setting the phones are not as senstitive to tone differences or changes and are over driven to get the loudness. I also noticed that I can also hear changes in signal strength at farther distances from the targets. The treshold very minute change can be heard better with the reduced phone settings with both sets of phones.
May others have already noticed this , but thought I would mention as a way of saying , as a newbie I am practicing every thing to get a handle on this sov.
