TTF in regular Trashy Parks

[Acornhead]

DoesTTF work well relic mode 2 tone in trashy parks where there isn't
A lot of iron and mulling? I tried for another hour at a local park, lots of new coins, etc. and
The machine didn't seem to be hitting them, seemed too quiet. If there isn't a lot of iron, how is TTF
advantageous? Des in Buffalo

Nice finds... when I'm using TTF, I feel like a just ran a vacuum over the area I just hunted, that's how good it works IMO. nice score

Good question, I'm waiting to see what the "experts" have to say about this? I prefer to use my machine in Conductive when the trash isn't bad. you can cover more ground, and the response seems faster.

The 'F' in TTF stands for Ferrous. If there isn't any ferrous junk in the park, using TTF would have zero value IMO.

Its not clear at least to me what you're asking or doing.
Sounds like something is missing or something else might be going on if you were indeed using a relic pattern with TTF and it was 'quiet'.
With that setup you should still have hit aluminum, etc. junk AND coin IDs....if coins are there. Need more info.

In tot areas or newer parks with scarce to no iron junk which is a rarety around here, i'll use Conductive settings along with my coin pattern.

I use TTF all the time. I like only having 2 tones to deal with. I also like to run an open screen. Its a little noisy,but once you get use to it, it's great. I feel like I miss less because of iron hiding good targets when running the screen open. I almost never dig a nail in TTF, unless its in with a high tone target, and I've dug several that way.
TTF will run quiet if you are running a pattern like the Andy S. because you have most of the low tones disc'd out.

If low iron I usually run conductive smooth audio response with modified Bill S trashy park pattern. But TTF will still hit the coins the same with or without iron present. TTF just makes it easier to contrast the non-ferrous from the ferrous. IMO. I even run it sometimes with trashy park pattern.

i agree.

Got it, thanks. Des
