Just wanted to post a quick note with the photo from Sunday. I along with 100's of people have hunted this site since 1973 and before I am sure.

Horrible EMI from over and underground power lines, so bad I had to go to the upper frequency and it was pretty stable.

about 25 targets, many brass and small items, shotgun shells and one spencer bullet measured 16"

After watching the videos I decided to try Full tones and 0 disc and fell in love with it.

Reminded me of my old friend the Mark One on steriods. Very hard to film standing on my head with a camera in one hand and digging with the other while in a sloped hole in the ground.

I assure you it was that deep and I used my pinpointer all the way to the target.

If the video is salvagable I will try to post it on YouTube if I can remember how, Love my Deus
 
Nice job sniffing out those goodies from a pounded site. Agreed, the Deus is awesome. I also like Full Tones and 0 Disc for just about all my programs.
 
Great report, glad you like the Full Tones, using disc o you will hear everything, at disc 1 you will eliminate the feedback from the ground. 1-5 will reject most iron.
 
Reminds me of a site similar to yours. Been pounded for the last 40 years or so. I went in with Deus and dug 100 nonferrous targets. Talked to a gent who had hunted this site on and off for the 40 years---his buds too.

He couldn't believe I found that many. I would venture a guess. An XP Deus had never been over this site.

Definitely an underestimated unit by some. That's OK. We don't need too many Deus users close to me anyway lol...
 
I hit another site Thanksgiving with a friend, need to count the digable readings from there. Only 4 bullets and some melted lead but 22 shells out the wazoo and they read like cuff buttons so any one of them could have been a button someone missed.
Also got some other misc stuff
We have found 3 Louisanna kepi buttons, a Richmond I button and a few eagles so I know the Deus will sniff out some good ones in time but it's so trashy it takes the patience of Job.
