Was able to try out the omega last night. Easy to assemble nothing missing very light weight compared to my other main use machines.i have the 11 in dd coil on my etp so I decided to try the elliptical 10 in. First thing I learned is how important gb is on these machines with out a good gb it was all I could do to find aclean spot to gb as it was so noisey. Once gbd it simmered down other than a pop or crackle now an then. Did find when swinging that it hit on a target now and then and I'd swing the other way and nothing then I'd try and make hit again from the first direction and it was hard to repeat let alone isolate. So I skipped those and just dug solid signals for now. Ended up with two pennies and two pull tabs before cows needed more attention. I was gbd at 62 on mxt my ground is usually 80 82. Kept sens at 60 or so for no reason other than me learning it I ran it up into the 80s and it ran fine. Don't like the tones so far miss the etps tones but I'm sure I'll learn these. 3 tone to me sounds all garbled together. I'm not sure I understand the graph just above the vdi numbers? I downloaded the manual last spring and have read it 4 or 5 times and that has helped a lot. Going to try it again today. Lastly where do wheats vdi? Is it like the etp? I usually can find 2 to 3 wheats each hunt avg 4 to 6 inches deep. I like finding all coins but wheats are my favorite as they are the first coin I collected and in a round about way that's what got me started in this hobby. Thank you guys!
