Now I'm curious.Both guys failed to test it with a 6" coil to make sure that it's a signal processor and not the coil at fault… So I did just that. And yes, a 6" coil is blinded by foil just as much as 11" one. It's actually getting even better than that: if you put a quarter that reads 50 between pieces of foil that read 15, the final result often reads… 11. That's not your vanilla averaging, that's a big fat bug right there.
Should be easy enough to fix though.
Great minds think alike, I just tried it with Simplex and only then saw your comment.Now I'm curious.
Have you tried this with the Simplex ?
I'm gonna have to try it with a few of my other machines.
Every new detector goes through quite a few updates before it reaches maturity. They'll fix it.I just got my Legend recently…..This is not good news…..I’ll try this test myself and report back
That's bad news for me. Lot's of aluminum globs on our Beach's here on lake Erie.Great minds think alike, I just tried it with Simplex and only then saw your comment.
Yes, Simplex behaves the same. Programmers tend to reuse their code…

Pretty much impossible to find gold without digging Al. The legend needs a "round sound" like the etrac and CTX , at least it cuts the numbers somewhat.That's bad news for me. Lot's of aluminum globs on our Beach's here on lake Erie.
Even worse. Nokta said no more updates for the Simplex.
Guess I'll keep digging aluminum in hopes of gold.
At the beach I dig everything down to 7 or 8, unless I'm in a hurry. That's how you find chains and small jewelry. That's how you find Aaron.That's bad news for me. Lot's of aluminum globs on our Beach's here on lake Erie.
I went for the "worst case scenario" and used 2 flat pieces of cooking foil about 1.5x1.5" in size (VDI 10). For VDI 15, I used round foil seals (about 2" dia) that I forgot to dump from my pouch after the last hunt.We're these flat or balled up pieces of aluminum ?
So thats what i was thinking.Pretty much impossible to find gold without digging Al. The legend needs a "round sound" like the etrac and CTX , at least it cuts the numbers somewhat.
