Etac Beach Hunting

as wide open as you can stand, do not block out 1-3 alot of small rings come in at those conductive. settings,the only thing i block out is some iron,and hunt in conductive audio , +3 auto sensitivity tony
 
the relic mode as preset on the Etrac that may be what you want? I have never hunted the beach but would love the opportunity to try it sometime. Unfortunately living in the Midwest not many sandy beaches I am just learning so don't laugh at my suggestion.

You Know, Minelab spend an awfull lot of time setting up the programs on this E-trac, and i find their Beach program just the Ducks guts. The manual tells you to use manual Sensitivity so you can wind it up as you like and thats what i do and i have no complaints. Just try their programe, I'm sure you will like it.
 
Another good pattern devised by Matt Renshaw in the UK goes like this. Black out the bottom four lines of the screen. Then black out a single pixel on the CON 01 line, FER 01 line and the CON 50 line.
This basically creates a 'window' which Matt calls his 'Window' pattern. The theory behind this is that it reduces the falsing when you increase the manual sensitivity to punch deeper into the sand. You should then find what other detectors have left behind.
