Cibola + 3 hr hunt = 3 silver rings
- Thread starter kregh
- Start date
Sensitivity on 10 , Discrim just hair below MAX - I wanted to focus on clad and silver on this hunt... seemed to really pay off 
I had to set the Discrim high because I was in a public school play area - didn't want to dig everything. Also - the Cibola is a deep machine
..almost too deep. Hit several 10-12 inch aluminum cans...after about 5 of those - I decided to set the Discrim way high..
Those rings were between 3-7 inches..
The Cibola is a great machine - but I wish it had no motion pin pointing like the ACE. With the ACE I can almost draw a line around what is in the ground. WIth the Cibola I have to wiggle around the target to get a feel for the size. Raising the coil helps - but its not a good technique when aluminum cans deep in the ground.
To be honest - I am not sure what value Threshold really adds other than to help pin point..
