CTX Finds Big Silver!!!

Even - So these two "modes" seem to be a great way to now investigate targets as there is more than just the sound difference (and now I'm wondering about the other modes!). I'm running them both with the same settings for now and then will vary it when cross checking targets.

Just a note as I posted in my Norfolk Wolf test thread, check out 50 Conductive on targets and cross check with Combine (and vice versa), if you get a chance. I am finding (in tests) that 50 CO is working better on coins in iron than combine - judging by the clearly better signal. In addition Combine seemed to work better with some disc as well. I need to check more tough coin targets that are naturally found and not planted.

Sorry, but I'm still confused - a little. Were you in FE-Coin in both the tests above? From what I've been seeing, you have to be in FE-Coin or Ground-Coin to get the silver dollar to read in the FE 12 range. If you are in any other Target Separation setting, the silver dollar will read more like around 01-36 which is closer to what we E-Trac users are used to. Is that what you are seeing?

In my combined program, I use Ferrous-Coin. The morgan hits 12-41
In my Multitone program which the 50 tone(like the E-trac I use high trash, so no its not Fe coin.. and the Morgan hits 01-36.. I think the reason for the difference is the FE coin mode hits 12-41 because it maybe also reading the Ferrous content of the coin.. To be honest I don't know, but today I hunted for just a little bit and switch back and forth from 50 tone to combined checking the 01-30's numbers and none of them hit 12-41 in the Ferrous coin, and I dug no morgans.dang. lol not sure if this will be a reliable check to test if a high hitting tone (01-36+s) is an actual Morgan or dollar coin, but I will definitely be looking for those tone changes as an alert that it might actually be a possible big silver coin..
I will post a video if this doesn't make sense...
