Yes. Another lesson Monte talks about.

After reading and learning, I have found the Cibola, and Tejon get better depth in discrimination mode when ground balanced slightly negative of neutral in all metal mode. You can optimize by power balancing. You have to be careful not to go too far negative or you will start to get false signals. I have not tried adjusting other Tesoro models like that; but if I remember Monte's discussions correctly, they indicate it is fairly consistent across the Tesoro product line.

Search on Monte and power balancing to get more information.

Also, about the maximizing the threshold setting (super tuning) ... it does increase depth of detection but it also hurts discrimination of larger pieces of iron. It also takes away some of the subtle tone edges on the larger iron. I prefer to run with the threshold set to a low back ground tone that is suitable for pin pointing. I give away a little bit of depth, but it is more usable and I get better results in most conditions I hunt.

If hunting an area where there is not a lot of trash and the hunt is for relics, turn the threshold up all the way and go for maximum depth.

I do not have a Cibola but I do have a Tejon. I have always listened to everyone who says that it is better to have a slightly positive GB... so i've never really considered a slightly negative GB. I wonder if is a little noiser or anything... it never entered my mind that negative might be deeper.

I'll be interested to see what others have to say.
