to CODY : I need advice for Mineralized soil

[marsias]

Hello cody.

I had in a location, my fathers Vineyard, more erroneous readings with my exII.

All readings was "positive" such 7.21, 10.25, 0.31 and so.

After i diged 5 holes and search the holes/soil carefully i found nothing!!

>>>as Users hier in forum says, must be a high mineralized soil.

I had running my exii with factory preset settings(adj. sensitive to manual).

I need, please some advice from you, to setup my explorer to avoid this erroneous readings.


thanks in advantage!

I see a lot of folks have attempted to help you with the "problem". Do this, post your email address, and I will help you work it out. I am pretty sure I know what the problem is an it is not the detector.

Cody,

He is asking the right guy! I would like to know what you find out. I have seen a number of post indicating similar problems. I would like know answers to the following:

#1 What are the settings for sensitivity, gain and masking?

#2 How loud are the target tones?

#3 Are there a great many targets indicated over a small area?

#4 What are the depth readings on the detector?

#5 Is the pinpointing is being done correctly?

#6 Is he using a probe?

HH,
Glenn

The guy said he is new to Detecting, No Probe and Detecting in a Vineyard. My Opinion: If he is getting somekind of hits......Probably whatever hold them Vines up ! (OR) He happened to hit the Vines in season and was testing them along the way The guy said he did not find any targets after sifting the dirt between his hands. Anyway, I think that Cody will straighten this fellow out !

Good Day !!

Buzz - There are typicaly 3 to 6 steel wires (10/12 ga) strung between wood post for support. The rows are usualy 6" to 8" apart. That may be his problem.

Hello Guys.

Thank you for those many responses.

@Captain Kirk, @Buzz.

In my fathers vineyard are nothing from metal to support the vine !!!! The vine-trees are about 50 cm high. I have very carefully checked and asked my father for metal targets!!! THERE IS NOTHING FROM METAL.

THIS ERRONEOUS READINGS ARE 100% from the soil. The soil(LIGHT BRAUN) has very small particles so i can search with my hand very easy and has no trash.

@ cody :

My e-mail address are rakita1964@yahoo.com BUT Iam far away from my explorer..I cant check you suggestions yet........ after 6 Months again.

THE VINEYARD IS SO IMPORTANT BECAUSE MY FATHER SAYS THERE MUST BE A HOARD OF GOLD COINS!!!.

>>>ARE REALLY NOTHING TO DO AGAINST HIGH MINERALIZED SOIL ?????<<<<<<<<


thanks in advantage.

Hello cody.

I have read your post in this forum about Ghost signals and tree-roots.

I have forgotten to write in this position of my fathers vineyard are a very old tree (cut) but the roots are there!!. Around this roots had i the Ghost signals. The sounds was HIGH PITCH.

Maybe is this the problem??(IF so ....are nothing to do against this??)


thanks.
