Blue Max 600 Question's

[billbeep]

Hi Group Today I received a Blue Max 600 Coil for my 6000 Pro XL. Does anyone have pointers on trash near good targets? I use the GEB Norm mode for hunring all signals but am confused when the meter doesn't lock on a target(s) but first goes High (Dime+) then Low (foil -)?? Deeper responses don't register at all.

I like the tighter target response and the fact I can run the Signal Balance much higher than the 9.5" stock coi for the same soil matrix.

Thanks in advance!

In my experience the wide VDI readings indicate iron. Usually they are bottlecaps or flat thin iron. A coin will pretty much lock on to a particular VDI number, unless a piece of trash is near it. Then you may have wide variances in VDI readings. Best advice is to dig a few of these wide variance signals till you get comfortable interpreting what they mean. But I personally feel 90+ percent of wide variance signals are iron/junk.
I forgot to add, on really deep coins/objects, there can be a audio signal but the VDI meter will not register any numbers. Use all metal mode to see if the target sounds 'deep'. Also, on my White's Silver Eagle, many iron objects will give a audio response, but not register a VDI number. No matter what the depth. My machine was built to do that with most iron. Does your detector do that? If not, then apply "on really deep coins/objects, there can be a audio signal but the VDI meter will not register any numbers".
