F-75 Gobbles Gold rings !!

[dirt doctor]

It was HOT today and this evening but I really needed to hunt !! I knew this was going to be my last chance to get a hunt in for a while because of commitments I must do . I got out for 3 short hunts today but didn't do much at all til' the last hunt of the evening . I'm not going to show the dog tag , the junk ring or the decent amount of clad I found . Just the stuff that makes us crazy !!

3 golds is terrific, WTG. In tot lots, you were probably digging it all, but do you recall what they id'ed at. 5 of the 6 gold rings I've found with my 75 all id'ed dead on 30. The other was a big men's class ring and id'ed at 55. Again, great finds, George. HH jim tn

process dE
This just happened to be what the machine was set on at the time , I didn't even go into all-metal to ground balance like I usually do ( it's a fairly shallow tot lot ) . The rings were 2" to 4" deep ,all read in the nickel Icon the numbers were 30 , 28 and I think one was 25 .

Goerge,

Elton and I have been talking lately about how low the sensitivity can be run of the F75 and still be effective. Do you run your F75 at 13-20 often? If so what kind of depth are you getting and do you have to turn your volume up a lot to hear tones. I tried running mine one night at 10 and noticed it killed the volume. Had to crank it up all the way for a good loud tone. I imagine with head phones you could really here a signal good with the sens at 5-15. What do you think--Sens at 13 hurting your hunting deeper stuff. Appearently not gold at 2-4" thou.

I always hunt in the highest sensitivity I can . The only reason it was that low was because I had turned it down at another area where I had been getting some interference previously .I had no Idea what I had set it at when I did as I was just using my ears and not the screen . I just found out what my settings were when you guys asked me what they were and I turned on the machine to see .Nevertheless even though I was using those settings , the volume was good on all targets . Just goes to show how forgiving a detector the F-75 can be .That was the last area I hunted and It's not a cool place to be after dark .
All I was concerned about was giving the place a good combing and getting the heck out .
