The rain stopped late Saturday, so I thought I would go back to the old Arizona homesite late sunday morning. I spent most of the morning moving trash so I could have a clean top surface area, where the old porch used to be. I also cleaned an area about 5' from the front and sides of the porch area thinking that this would be the traffic area.
I have to say I learned a lesson on the C$ today, at first I thought it was running so quite that I would crank up sens, so I boosted from 6 to 9. After digging a few false targets, I went to sens 7, thresh -20, disc 99, notch out foil and tabs, auto trac off, and average off.
After about three hours of clean up work, I started at the edge of the house and worked my way out, on the last pass I thought all of my work was in vain and I was going to go home empty handed, when I hit a deep signal. The digits were reading 38 and pinpoint was reading 15. When I turned 90 degrees the digits read 36 and pinpoint was still at 15, The tone was more of a high short chirp than tone.
I must tell you I dug at least twenty bad targets on this place, but I was going to dig every target that registered in the positive that I could not see. I dug a whole 6" deep and stuck my pinpointer in and pulled out a pull tab, ok so I scanned the hole again and it read 37 and pinpointed more to the right than where I was digging. I dug over and down 2 more inches and used my pinpointer again and this is what I found.
