I learned something...so you X and drag a signal to try to determine the shape and depth by tone right? Since the tones dont change, I am imagining thats what you are doing? I can see this would take some practice for a multi tone hunter like me to master..i liked your coil work, have you ever tried tapping the coil vertically on a target to find its center? That method sure works swell for me..Just dont know if it works with Tesoros and am curious...

X-ing is used to center over the target. You get the size by the length and tone of the audio signal. Depth is determined by the strength (loudness) of the audio signal.
Yeah, I've done some tapping in tall grass.
The audio tone does change! In the video there are lots of examples. The broken audio sounds are most likely small can slaw pieces, the short audio tone sounds are likely pull tabs, the soft small audio tones represent deep targets that make me want to dig, loud audio tones are shallow targets. You can size a target by listening to audio tone. Big targets not only sound loud, but also sound big. That one audio tone tells you a whole lot if you listen to it.
Go back and listen to the last target in the video. I just had to go back and dig it up, because whatever was making that audio tone is too good to leave in the ground.
A veteran Tesoro user would be digging that target without hesitation.
