I went out for a couple of hours yesterday. The first place I stopped was a cornfield. I was only hunting for about 15 minutes when a county deputy startled me and asked what I was doing? He said it looked like I was laying on the ground. I told him I was coin hunting. He asked me if I had permission to be on the property and I told him I did. We had a little talk as I had graduated with the county sheriff and the chief deputy was a good friend of mine. He left and I recovered an old rivet. I was in field 1 with 5 tone. Later I recovered an old shot gun shell. I was getting tired and got a real loud signal. I pried out what appears to be well worn large cent. I will soak it in olive oil to see if any details remain. Then I stopped for a short visit with my aunt and uncle. Got permission to hunt my grandparents house the was built in the 1890s for later this year. The ground is soaking wet. On the way home I stopped at a field that was once a ball diamond and hit by every detector in a tri-county area. I knew it was a trash infested site so I went to park 1 and sensitivity at 22. I recovered a 54 rosey and a couple of memorial cents. I was pretty tired and called it a day. I think the Equinox 600 is doing what it's supposed to and I think it will be just fine!

Congratulations. 
Thanks guys! I have permission to hunt a house today that was tore down about a week ago,it was built in the 50s. I know there was an older house there in the 1890s. Itis across the street from the old hotel,there was also a depot nearby and an opera house! I love my research!
Went out again this afternoon for about three hours. Park 2 sensitivity 21 and 5 tone. I got a 63 Washington quarter,a worn 1903 Barber quarter,4 orange nickles and a corroded wheat or Indian head. I also dug some junk but you always want to dig those iffy signals! My old tail is dragging it isn't fun walking in mud! It was 44* with a north wind...This machine is working pretty good!
