Phantom tones?

[Goldburn]

Has this ever happened to any of you?

At first I thought this was my imagination, but it has happened at least a dozen times.

After acquiring a target, I stand back up and rescan the area and get a tone in the exact same spot.. but only once. It's like the Ace has a memory or something.

Is there an explanation, or do I have a magical Ace?

Same with the Gti 2500. They just set them to do that to get us excited.

Could be the halo of the target that you just removed..Slight rust or residue left behind..

It does the same thing with my Tesoro as well as with my Ace and Fisher. It must be the halo

It sounds like a bit of target masking going on. There is probably a bit of iron right next to the target that you acquired. try hitting it from several different angles next time. It could also just be a piece of junk that sounded good on the first pass.

I beleive its the detector resetting itself. Readying for the next target. Mine always gives the phantom beep to the right of where a target was just dug.
