Just got my Garrett 250 Ace for Christmas. This unit replaced my Radio Shack unit that quit years ago. I read my manual, watched the Garrett videos, then took my unit for a test run at a college that was part of an old southern plantation with plenty of giant oak trees. Here are my questions. When searching I often get a hit sound that will show a coin 6" deep. I swing over the same place and no signal. No more signals at this spot. Can grass interfere with the signal? What does this indicate?
Second question. My unit came with a cover that fits over the coil. Is this cover for storage, or does it stay on during hunting sessions? I hunted for about 15 minutes and uncovered several coins, but had a lot of those one time hits. Any help you can give a new user?
Thanks
