Okay...hear me out on this little bit of confusion I have.
First I have a Vaquero, Bandido and have owned a Conquistador so I know a bit about Tesoro detectors.
I was sitting here thinking about deep coins or just deep good targets in general and since I do thumb
the disc when deciding what targets to dig this partial thought hit me.
If lets say a coin was at the edge of detecting depth but giving a so-so beep and you thumb the disc...on that deep coin would the
signal break up as you lost depth due to the disc being higher and in effect ether have the signal break up early or
lose it altogether which would lead many to ignore it as something not worth putting digger to soil to retrieve?
Thinking it may actually work this way I sit and wonder how many good targets I've passed up and not dug.
Now I know some of you may say (when in doubt...dig) and yes I understand that the ultimate disc is the person
swinging the detector and not the detector itself but it is something to think about.
Sorry as it seems I'm rambling on about this but looking out the window at the snow has me detecting in the head
and not outside...lol
I would like to hear some feedback on this subject.....I'm sure most of you know alot more about how disc-depth signals
and how things work along this subject than me and I welcome all thoughts.
I've posted this on two forums to catch the attention of everyone I can and hear all views.
Thanks and HH
