from what i've seen so far these are iron targets so i quit messing with them. can i afford to ignore that sweet high tone if the crosshairs are top left? hh.

here's my latest question - high tones, crosshairs top left, iron mask -10

If you are using ferrous sounds, the iron should have a low tone. Hopefully someone who knows more will add to this. HH, George (MN)

It is a good repeatable signal that is the high tone even though the cross hairs are on the top left. There may be a coin there with a iron object beside it, you get the high pitch of a coin, but the iron object is the last target which will make the crosshairs in the top left. This is one of the reason I will come at it from a differnt angle and see if it still reads it with the high tone and if it moves or not. If it is repeatable from more than one direction and dont move i will dig everytime no matter what the crosshairs show. Remember repeatable high tones first than the crosshairs for reference.

i was hunting in an old ghost mining town and i was getting dozens of these signals. i dug a few before finally giving up on them. i know there weren't that many coins there, <IMG SRC="/forums/images/smile.gif" BORDER=0 ALT="
">hehe... as i learn the machine better maybe i can tell which signals show promise and which don't. thanks again. hh.

When using ferrous or conduct and no or very little discrimination you can get high tones and the cross hair top left. DIG THESE SIGNALS and you will find 99% of the time it is a non ferrous object close to a ferrous one. For some reason the cross hair reacts better to the ferrous object while the sounds pick up the non ferrous one.
Also a little experiment worth trying is using the settings below and holding tightly in your hand a mixture of ferrous and non ferrous objects of the same size together and passing them under the coil. Try moving the objects in front and behind each other and side by side. I have found you will get a signal which is about mid way between these objects being tested individualy.
clear screen
32 sensitivity
ferrous sounds
gain at 10
variability 10
threshold tone 1 ( this is threshold tones under "tones" not threshold on the main screen ) variability 10
limits 10.

my god i've left loads of these signals thinking they were iron, better get out tommorow to check them out
