This is a good video by Calabash on deep silver ..

It is spot on. This machine doesn’t need to be jacked all the way up to find deeper coins. In my 150 hour experience, jacking it WILL HURT YOU. Once the audio becomes unintelligible, it’s over. I found an 8” copper Memorial on Sens 16. THESE weaker signals in this video are all I hunt because it’s all there is! And he’s right, and it’s what I’ve said as well...if you’re claiming to dig SUPER deep targets....film it so other people know what to listen for if you can. It is NOT always easy to find these targets in the wild.
Personally, I need some double verification to backup EVEN a high conductor tone at that depth, before I dig a 10-12" hole. Those tones on the 10" dime sounded low for my liking, but I assume that is an 800 so the tone might be tweaked "different" than my 600. My FBS machines would indicate where it was in the Smartfind screen, jumpy maybe but it would offer a double verification pre dig on a 10" unknown target. I usually always find a rusty nail when I dig just tones, unless those tones are crisp. jm2c
I hunt predominately public property, so any 10" digs best not be whims due sound, unless it is very sweet. I have left and gone back in off hours to dig left behind deepies

I hunt parks private property and beaches with permission and I may dig a rusty nail at 10" but quite often I find a coin in there with it with my 800 maybe you guys don't hunt as much as I do? but the equinox has really up my finds in the past 2 years so much so5900_XL-1 said:
I have the equinox as my only machine now I've sold my Deus I had a Etrac liked that to but too heavy killed my elbow time spent in the field to learn the machine works great for me.

LOVE IT OR HATE IT? The Equinox is a very special detector......one go down in the books as one of the best ever made...
I always Enjoy Calabash's videos! Every tone he hit there would have me digging! I know a few of my coins were down 10". I always hunt in 5 tone instead of 50 and run my sensitivity as high as I can without the machine going nuts. I have ran anywhere from 18-23...It just depends on the EMI and ground conditions. Listen to your machine...It will tell you what it wants! HH! Ted

Modulated audio is where the Nox needs improvement.

Awesome video Cal. I love the Equinox to, I have done pretty well with it so far only thing is I get so many nails they sound just like silver and deep to what can I do to reduce the amount of nails. I hunt in park one sensitivity 21-22 ..

I hunt in Park 2 ….I dont really chase much iron. No more than I did with my Deus. I really dont know the answer.... I chased some while I was learning the machine but its not a issue now.
