Off the top of my head rambles.....
The F75 is a very FAST metal detector. Lightning quick response/reset time. In other words the numbers show in real time unlike some other new TID units that the number comes up seemingly a couple sec. after you sweep over it. This greatly helps in trash.... CZ users were always told to hunt slow. With the F75, one can sweep fast and cover sites alot quicker espeically combined with the good sized DD coil. In fact, sweeping fast over a deep target can actually make it sound "better".
The depth reading & pinpoint is excellent....will be VERY welcomed to those of us accustomed to say a Fisher Excel/Edge/C$. While using the VCO pinpoint, it shows in inches, is very accurate, and easy to do with the trigger I always wanted on those units. No more holding in a tactile pad & doing math to try to figure out, "Ok a 50 is like 5", so a 30 is like 7"?
The VCO sound & the numbers in inches also is very good for "sizing" targets as well...
Yesterday I talked about the constant Fe3O4 graph. This indicates AMOUNT of magnetic mineralization, & when coil is in motion it's measuring it. When you balance, a 2 digit number shows type of mineralization. I said I would update on the Fe3O4 numbers that show on the bar graph.
3....uncommon heavy mineralization
1....heavy mineralization, common in goldfields
0.3...heavy mineralization found in various regions
.01...medium & typical (& what I had @ last site)
0.03..common light mineralization
0.01/blank....very light
TONES-has a wide variety to choose from, not just for user sound preference, but also offers different methods of audio discrimination. There are 2 diff. 1 tone selections, 2,3, & 4 tone set ups. Also a "dP" or Delta Pitch which each # is a different sound. The higher the conductivity # the higher the pitch.
ERGOMOMICS- Borrowing the configuration style of the T2, swinging this detector will be a joy to current Fisher users....ESPECIALLY those of us who own "big Box" Fishers like the Coinstrike/CZ-70/1270, etc, etc. Those who knew & considered, like me, the 1266x with the betteries under the arm cup the best balanced Fisher of all time. Well, the 1266x may have just lost the title Don't let the look of the coil fool you...there was alot of study done to make this fit the arm perfectly. Not top or bottom heavy like alot of detectors. Honestly, trying to use my C$ or 1270 seems awkward now. Long days in the field with "big boxes" for close to 30 years has damaged my right wing (much like a baseball pitcher). So the F75 is very welcomed, & no need to hipmount whatsoever....
I have requested further info on the 3 "process #"... I feel some folks may get the wrong idea that "PF" (plowed field) is ONLY useful on a farm But, I'm sure every "process" has it's place in many different applications. Perhaps one will work good on a salt beach say? These are things we are learning as we go.....
