I was on a beach recently in florida and went thru the normal startup precedures with my xterra 70. All metal, I went to noise cancel and hit auto. The circle went all the way around and showed zero on the meter when done and beeped. I then ground balanced in auto and turned track on and everything seemed ok. It was the first time I had ever had a zero on noise cancel .

xterra auto noise cancel, I have a question
- Thread starter mitwes56
- Start date
When Minelab implemented Noise Cancel channels into the X-TERRA, they chose to use a numbering system that includes a different number for each of the 5 noise channels available. The numbers representing those five noise channels are -2, -1, 0, +1 and +2. I suppose they could have callled them A, B, C, D and E and we wouldn't have thought twice about it. By using numbers that include a zero, one might conclude that zero represents "nothing". But that would be an incorrect conclusion. When implementing Noise Cancel, the zero on the Noise Cancel channels actually represents the "middle" channel of the five channels available. When you saw a noise channel of zero, it merely indicated that the "middle" channel was best choice for that particular site at that particular time. HH Randy
