Anybody use MXT pro 7 tone ID in relic mode?

Just wondering if anybody uses the MXT pro with 7 tone ID in relic mode? I was warned about switching from that mode back to C&J mode which I guess will make the detector knock out the pull tab range. I don't plan to switch back to C&J mode once in relic 7 tone ID but was wondering if anybody had any problems using the relic 7 tone ID, does that mode still keep the pull tab range? I haven't had a chance to use mine yet. HH
 
I used to use the 7 tone relic mode. Some call Alt mode some call it a trick anyway, a couple years ago for most of the hunting season I used Alt relic and was all about it. My finds increased quite alot. I dont think it discs anything out but just doesn't sound quite right. I never wanted to go back to C&J after that. So not sure on that.
I now use the Alt mode Prospecting with Dual Control to Hyper SAT. At first seemed a little noisy because everything has a tone and VDI. No discriminating out. After discovering this, Relic mode just sounded dumb to me. I will admit that this mode loves bottle caps and some bent nails or old rusty iron with a hole in it. Results vary depending on coil. My finds have greatly increased but so has my dig count.
Sorry it has been a while so hard to remember much and cant test. Had to send to Sweet Home.
Hope this helps a little. Hope more chime in with their experiences cause this truely is what saved my Pro. Detech 8x6 helps too.
 
40wing,

I've tried the technique of bringing the seven tones into the Relic mode and it worked but I didn't see much advantage over the two tones of the regular Relic mode. I have the MXT Pro and it didn't notch out pull tabs after going back to C&J. I will try the 7 tone trick some more when I get a chance. I'm not sure what I did different but one time after I went back to C&J it notched out my gold wedding ring until I pressed the Ground Grab button which restored the two tones and brought gold back.
I would be cautious about that problem if using the 7 tone technique/trick.
