another way to ID pull tabs

[Waterdog]

Someone had posted on here that there was another way to ID pull tabs, but I can not find that post. Maybe someone here can give me a direction. Thanks

The only sure way to ID them ,,is to look at their shape!! lmao!!!!!!! There are several different kinds ,,so it can be tricky.


I have read the post you are referring to,,but don't know where it is.

This is what Uncle Willy had posted I believe:
Pinpoint with the coil on the ground centered over the target. Without moving the coil release pinpoint and in a few seconds you will hear a sound like Morse Code or silence.If it's Morse Code, dig it. If it's silent then lift the coil up about a half-inch or so from the ground. If you get a short blip, dig it. If none of these occurr pass it up or dig it if you wish.
This was in reference to the 2500.

This is the way I do it: every time I see it on the ID, I mentally say "could be a ring."

If there's anything I hate worse than diggin' pulltabs, its missin' a gold ring.
