What if????

[Bowie]

I must be dumb, I dont even have this machine yet.
Ok, this concerns the falsing on iron with the high, screaming at ya high pitch,ive read described. Falsing is caused by the wrap around effect, correct me if Im wrong.
So, what if, you run up on a target and get this or a similar audio and you are hunting in a coin pattern with just enough of the top right blocked in for the big silver.
If, you go to an all metal quick mask, accepting all the top right, will you still get that same high pitch??? Or what if you check it in another pattern set up for all metal with ferrous tones, do you think it would distinguish a difference or tell you enough it was iron?? I know nails are a pain, most times with my other machines I use, sizing usually tells the difference on the larger metal objects, but nails sometimes clipped or bent fool me.
Just trying to get an education,

I just started with the E-trac this week..Been using the SE 2 years or so.I have been running quickmask 22/23 .when i get a larger nulled out target,to test the machines discrim i have been bumping into all metal fast and double checking the target.So far the machine hasnt lied.I am not switching to ferrous sounds when i do this so the iron screams high pitch like the good stuff..But i can see it hits solid bottom right so its iron.I am impressed thus far with discrim and the recovery speed of this machine.My se was and still is awsome..But this is like driving a cadilac compared to a malibu...Both ae great cars..but the caddy does everything abit smoother and nicer ) Good luck,,Hope i answered your question somewhat..HH
