I must say I have been having some pretty remarkable success with my F-75 and I'm only chiming in here to offer what I've found. Streak sounds like he has 'er nailed down but I must disagree with him on certain issues.
Maybe it's just my F-75 but I get a heckuva lot better target response in bad iron dirt and on deep targets in All Metal. In our soil here, even in the better of our dirt, it has a tendency to read DEEP stuff as iron and do this bounce thing. For example on minie balls, on say 3 out of 5 sweeps across a deep target in bad dirt (8+ inches), the machine will ID it as iron, and then two of the times it will bounce into either the tab or zinc range. Listening to the shape and size of the target in all metal will give you a good idea of it. However in Disc mode, you can very easily walk right over those and not even know they are there. Trust me, I was fortunate to catch this early on and have since relied nearly 100% on using the all metal as my relic hunting mode.
I'm not downing the guys I hunt with...they are great hunters. I'm not downing their machines either...just giving the 75 some praise it deserves. But in the last few trips I've had the opportunity to hunt side by side with nearly 16 different people and about 9 different detector makes and models. The last trip we made I dug 33 (yes...thirty three) minie balls while the closest person to me dug 8. Yep. Eight. I had some of them to the point of bashing their machines against the ground. SEVERAL times some of them would stop to watch me dig a few bullets and then tell me to call them over when I thought I had another bullet so they could check it with their machine and their machine not even make a peep on them. They'd stand there in amazement as I would pull another bullet from the 8-12 inch range. This is a scenario that keeps happening and I'm glad to have learned the 75 a little bit to know what it's telling me.
But I'll just let you know first hand, with the F-75 set in DISC mode to ANYTHING BUT 0 disc and 1 tone, you would walk right over them too and not know what you were missing. It's my finding that DISC mode on the machine really condenses the overall ability to tell the target by audio. Cause like I say, on my particular unit, 3 out of 5 sweeps over a target it will read a deep bullet or button as iron, and only twice will it go to where it should be hitting. On the shallower targets it is a no brainer...they'll ID in the TAB/ZINC range nearly every time on a bullet. My ground averages .3 on the FE meter...have ran into some places that went as high as .1
