Going for the whisper targets

[Kenfen]

Ok, I'm up for it now, I'm willing to dig deep for stuff.... so how do I best go about locking on to the whisper targets? Any tips?

Kind Regards,

Kenfen

Sometimes the real deep ones are not a whisper, but a nulling of the threshold, particularly in heavy mineralization areas where the deep ones experience a heavy shift in VDI.

In particularly old areas, repeatable threshold nulling at large depth, should be investigated further.

Both you guys are gurus! Jeff, I had to re-read your excellent reply before the light bulb finally turned on....

Ok, that helps me quite a bit in understanding the MXT.

All good advice

If you want to quickly imprint the sound of whisper signals in your brain lower the gain to 4 or 5. Most areas should have plenty of targets in the 5-6" range that will teach you the sound. Once learned you will never lose it.Forget the meter and all the fancy stuff, beep-dig. But do run the disc just below 2. Personally I preferred the gain set just above 10 where you hear it ramp up in the audio. This keeps you out of the boosted zone with maximum gain and modulated audio on the deeper stuff.

Decided to try Jeff's practice method for whisper signals. Two years ago buried a wheaty 6'' deep in my back yard but could never find it, not even a whisper. First tried ''Big Foot'', no signal. Next tried 5.5 X 10 Eclipse, got a ragged whisper , no id. Went back in the garage to clean up and noticed the stock 8.5 coil still in the wrapper, never used. You guessed it, picked up wheaty and even ID'd it correctly !!!
MXT and I get to start all over on past sites.
Ground condition : 70
