So I just got a new Explorer. Today I hunted an older park. I've hunted it before with my Sov. and also a Whites IDX. I can usually pull a few oldies out of the park, but today I was having problems with the Explorer.
The park isn't terribly trashy, but I couldn't seem to tell the difference between what I thought were deep coins and edges of iron/trash. I was trying to listen for deep, quiet signals, but they sounded like falses. I tried various different sensitivity settings, auto/manual, iron mask, no iron mask, etc. but still couldn't quite get it.
So then I went to an old home site, a more trashy spot, and put on my 8" coil. I went to factory presets and this seemed to work better.
In this spot though I seemed to get tricked a lot by iron/trash - like when I hit the edge of the trash, it sounds like a good target. Am I running the sensitivity too high? It seemed to be constantly nulled while swinging, but when I'd stop, the threshold would come back.
How do I know what the best sensitivity setting is?
I know, I asked a lot, but any help is appreciated....
