You guys in the States tend to use Patterns a lot more than we do in the UK so the E trac exchange will be more useful to you I reckon. Because of the Enormous amount of metalic items that are still buried in our soils here going back as far as 2-3000 years we tend to run our Explorers very open with little or no discrimination. We just darent knock out all the pull tabs & ringpulls etc that you guys do incase we're losing out on a lovely Artefact or relic or valuable coin. I think even John Moore will agree with me on that. We tend to dig everything. Last Sunday I dug a large piece of 2000 year old Bronze Artefact with the E trac on my first trip out and it came up from a genuine 18" in a very sandy soil at our Corfe Castle rally. It gave me a hell of a signal as well.
No you can simply download the ptn file straight onto your computer and then if you want to load it up to your E-Track you will need to be connected by the USB lead.
TonyH ,after all the years we have known each other ,your post is correct, here we open up wide and dig most signals that are deep,for us to discrim out pull tabs and ring pulls etc ,could be a gold ring many hundreds of years old ,the range of coins that are iron based are so varied ,our silver hammered coins are never consistant with the same readings , so the varation is emense and the only way to go is very little discrim and dig all those deep signals .
