retuning

I have read were a detector may have to be retuned sometime. My question is, how would you know if it needs to be retuned or not?
 
I suppose some preset ground balance detectors or machines with internal potentiometers could need a retune once in a while.. the explorer I believe has all its tuning done in circuitry.. no pots in their that I know of to adjust
 
Mark,
I used to hear this term years ago before they came out with auto tune as it had to do with the threshold of the older detectors. Many of the first ones had a knob to adjust, then came the ones with the button on the end of the handle to push and hold while you turned the tunning knob and whenever it driffed you just push the button and it would go back to where you set it. After that came the auto tune that kept it running at a seady threshold tone.
Maybe on detectors with manual ground balance you would have to retune the ground balance on differnt sites or in differnt areas.Many of the detectors now days have a preset ground balance in disc.
