What sound does the t2 make and deep targets?

I am talking about targets beyond the detectors id range. The reason I am asking is only sometimes, I get a real low iron grunt with no number and no arrow at all. Yet everytime I go across the target i get an iron grunt. Is this what it does when its hitting a deep target? I have not dug any to find out, wanted to ask first. Also when you pinpoint it shows something deep, but was wondering if its just iron or some mineralization in the soil. Thanks
 
Really deep the detectors built on this platform will report audio but no screen data.
This is normal.

Some very deep targets will report as iron if there is iron in the vicinity, some will do it with no iron around at all...Even a few kinds of old coins.

Then it could be iron down deep, also.

Raise your sense up as high as it can go, these actually can pick out non ferrous targets better in iron sites or mineralized soil with better resolution, not lower as many others do.
Maybe push the hum or thresh up there too.
This might lift it out of the iron area if it is non ferrous

Switch to 1 tone.

Dig one or two of these and see exactly what it is if all else fails.
 
When I am faced with such a target which deep characteristics, I usually simply dig a large plug with my shovel and flip it over and re-scan the hole. If it is a good target, the absence of the soil you removed from the top of the target (the plug) would usually be enough to clear up the signal and even let a VDI signal through. A higher then iron number (even slightly) I would dig.

X2 on this one. Exactly what I do.
 
Sure it's a fine machine, I had one when they first came out and EMI drove me crazy and didn't seem to get the depth people claim to today.

Now I have too many machines to try one, happy hunting,

I don't know about the older t2's but the new classic is not like that. Not where i hunt anyways. I can run it at 99 sensitivity with no problems, its quite. If you turn it on inside my house, it will drive you up the wall. I can promise you it is a deep machine. Not like the f75 ltd or the t2 ltd, but its plenty deep.
