Got off work a little early yesterday and met my buddy. We hit a lot that had a late 1800s house on it until 2012. I had the simplex with stock coil and he used the anfibio with kr24.
this turns out to be one of my favorite lots I’ve found here. There’s a ton of square nails, not much clad and not much aluminum. I was instantly popping brass and lead bits. Got a nice deep 1928 wheatie at 7-8”, a silver plated pocket watch, 4 hole button with fancy, other odds and ends. Find of the day for me though, at 5-6” was a pewter teacup from a Victorian era doll tea set. Killer! All finds were in park 2 mode.
You can’t stop me with this thing in a park or yard. It’s so productive with no adjustment. Park 2 had good depth for me using the stock coil. It separates surprisingly well for its size. This machine is easy to trust. But my headphones came unpaired and I couldn’t remember how to pair back up. So half my hunt was on the speaker at 1 volume. That was tough.
I plan on hunting that spot again. I never left one small area. I barely scratched it. Most importantly, I had more fun in that short hunt using the simplex than I do using other machines. It really stuck with me that I actually had FUN. Usually I’m out challenging myself to find specific targets or specific depths. Nope. I just dug all non ferrous tones and had a blast. Not much trashy modern stuff either. That’s what’s up with the simplex. Fun.
