Great video as always Merrill! I offer this suggestion for the Simplex on the beach....learn to MANUALLY ground balance the machine, especially at the beach. Start with a high threshold, and adjust it until it goes silent when you're close to the ground. Then adjust it back up a little at a time until you just hear the threshold again. The Simplex runs hot, so if your ground balance is off, you'll get lots of chatter. If the ground balance is set right, you can also hunt with higher sensitivity and more stability. Keep those videos coming! I look forward to each and every one!
I think the odd spool-like thing is a cuff link. For some reason they are always slanted. We think of French cuffs now as fancy....but back in the day even many women’s blouses required cuff links.
Sorry for my bad Englisch... I saw another video from a British Detectorist and he did the ground balance in Beach Mode and switched to Park or Field Mode for Beachhunt.
You need to figure that deus out it’s by far the best machine on the market once you understand it. Watch England’s history metal detecting on RUclips sid use to be a nox guy but switched to the deus permanently once he figured it out and seen what it can do. I have a video on my page also explaining some of the settings in the deus. And also I own a simplex and a deus and I’ve noticed on the simplex you must sometimes manually adjust the ground balance yourself using the arrow buttons until you get it to stabilize.
Hi Merrill, here's a thing... I found this tip on Simplex Guru's channel... put the beach mode ground balancing into 00.00 manually. Give it a go and see how you rate the machine in salty conditions then! By the way, love trying to see your settings when you use the Simplex... I keep learning... PS - had to interrupt watching... just back from the minus tide beach! Nothing much yet... but promise! 😁😁😁
I suggest letting Danny use the Simplex, instead of the Deus. It is much more user-friendly for a beginner. I started with a Bounty Hunter 20 years ago, and it made it much easier to progress to a more advanced machine. Just a thought.
Double headed nail is a brass saddle rivet they used them in early saddles and bridles, don't toss them there with a few bux to the right guy, and if you decrease your swing and drag your coil on the ground more and then take a short turn and do it again the simplex chatter will calm down ive noticed , i started with the simplex and than graduated to the nox 900 cause its a smoother tone and not as scratchy. Ohh yeah and if you buy yourself some drum gel its used to muffle a snare drum and stick it too the bottom speaker next to the led light , it calms down the scratch on the machine
You know, on really good repeatable signals, I have stopped using the Simplex pinpointer feature, The coil seems to have a little sweet spot at the front of the coil.
Park1 with version 2.77 is the way to go in fields and parks, been using simplex for 6 months and if you are on the beach go to beach mode, full sensitivity without all the chatter
Thinking about the Simplex as a first completely waterproof detector. The more i watch, the more I'm interested kinda... My Vanquish 440 kills at the beach! I guess i'm not the only person that dreams about detecting! Hey, it's the first time I see Wendy's and Nantucket Nectar being unlocked!!! Hilarious! Cheerios!
I started dirt fishing with a simplex + and after a few years I graduated into a Minelab equinox 900 multi frequency. The simplex is great for what it is though and I've dug numerous things with it , loves mercs or mercury dimes
You are amazing and my gosh soooo many vids. Well I'm slowly make my way through them! Quick question on the simplex plus. So if I go underwater without underwater headphones will I be able to hear the audio through the speaker? I know it has vibe but..rather not buy underwater headphones if I don't have to. Maybe you haven't been underwater but you're the man to know!..i hope..i think! Thanks from upstate!
Can you please tell me the name of that song when you find a ring I sing it in my head when I go to work and I have nothing else I need to know it so I can put it on my Pandora
I have learned a lot from you and your videos hopefully one day I’ll take a trip and come up to Long Island and look you up and maybe we can go to texting together I think that would be a lot of fun I really like your videos and you seem like a pretty cool guy and I’d like to like to talk to you go to take them with you make a day of it
I lost a signal, but in the hole I ended up with a jagged stone that may have been worked by a native American. It was probably meh to him and pitched it.
Merrell I’d like to see you do more videos with the bank was in the salt water on the beach and in parks I love my 440 but I would like to see you do some more videos with the vanquish
The Deus would have been perfect for those beach conditions since it does well in wet and no waves to worry about. You should use the Deus more cuz it’s a great det3ctor
They snorkle in saltwater with the nokta simplex and doesn't give false signals. They do a manual ground balance by pumping the coil up and down and change it until they can barely hear it on the up and on the down.
Whoever “they” is are not aware of better options. You can tell yourself all you want that this is an elite saltwater metal detector. I assure you it isn’t. Have you used an Equinox? A Legend? A Deus 2? Even an Apex or Vanquish. I have gone on record in multiple videos saying that the Symplex is the best value in all of metal detecting right now and it is. What it IS NOT is a saltwater metal detector. Is it possible to pull a few obvious targets in the wet of the beach? Yes. But you will be outgunned every time by the competition.
@@MetalDetectingNYC I never said it was better than those you mentioned. I do believe you can get better results with your simplex by manually ground balancing it in 2, 3, or 4 tone modes. I watched videos of it because I'm thinking of getting one. They say to pump it up and down, adjust the manual ground grab until it makes the least sound as possible, then it is right. It is pretty pointless for you because you got that equinox, I hope you get your battery very soon, if not already. I've only had an Ace 350 so far, lol, one that didn't even have TDI #. Great videos.
*PERMISSIONS FOR SILVER, DUDE!!!* If you hunt houses built around 1930 to 1940, 9 outta 10 times you can get multiple silvers from each yard. Most of then havent been hunted yet because people have always liked to hit the early 1900s homes or before. You wont find many cool relics like you can at an 1800s house but with a goal of simply finding silver coins, ya cant beat a 1940s yard.
Merrill ya sexy Sushi eater, I just ordered a Simplex. How dissapointed am I going to be when take it to my local beaches here in Australia? I know it's a single frequency machine but I'm just hoping it's not as bad as my old AT Pro? 🤣😬🤦♂️
For everyone bashing the simplex its good for what it is , until you get something better and you shouldn't be bashing the machine,it usually the operator not the machine . The important part is that swinging gets your ass off the sofa and outside moving around having fun. Over half of the people bashing it don't know what they're talking about and just haven't mastered it, great video fellow swinger
The Simplex is a great value detector for sure but, best for inland!......Don't cut yourself short especially if hunting salt water beach....after all your looking for treasure & you want to use the best equipment possible to enhance your odds on better finds.......IT WILL NOT HANG WITH A PULSE OR MULTI - FREQUENCY ON THE BEACH!!.....Again, the Simplex is a good value and I don't regret buying one though.
A lot of newer videos slamming the Simplex in comparison videos especially the guy who uses the Virginia sand box test basically called the simplex garbage in everything but name
Hopefully you learned the Simplex by now. It’s a great machine at the beach but you have to get to know it. Check out Simplex Guru channel on RUclips. Everything you’ll need to know about it.
You just got lucky with the inferior the Symplex and I have a vanquish 440 and I have a Symplex plus in them to pick up more silver coins than mine Fábio I don’t even use my Amphibia anymore I got a Safari I got all kinds of metal detectors I have 15 of them total and for silver coins the yard Symplex plus and the 440 vanquish mine lab are my two favorite protectors for the park and the beach for looking for silver I’ve had more luck finding silver coins with them two detectors
Merrill, first, that double ended nail looking thing is actually a rivet. Second, blur out your license plate! Why? It’s a security risk. Somebody could possibly get your home address with it. Ruh Row!
Mark my words.... ur Simplex speaker will break in less than 3 weeks and produce no sound, unless u used the headphones. I sent mine back. I would have to ground balance at about 3-5 to get it to shut up in wet sand, and could only get 5-6” on coins... did the update make it do deeper in wet sand? Does the frequency change make a difference ... u should make a video and test it in wet sand. Ull see if it shines then
60% simplex+ (2/6 bars) more or less 5% equinox, as with the nox i usually hunt on 24/25 sensitivity. Hunt on the beach with simplex+ makes no sense for me.
I’m not going to buy I’m going to buy the new legend just as soon as it comes out just because I want it not that I need another detector I have a problem too I’m not far behind you Merrill I collect all these detectors I don’t do no video so I just when they come out right at five see him I just I just like them and I buy them it’s Leica a gambler with somebody to gamble still gets addicted to gambling and I’m getting up that I am addicted to a metal detectors and metal detecting and I’m retired now and that’s all I wanna do is metal detect and go deep-sea fishing I’m from Florida and I go back-and-forth every now and then but I live in Kentucky sell I haven’t had no chance in a while to go beach detective up here we get a lot of you know Civil War stuff

Did you have groundbalance at 0 I heard that is what you need to do with simplex on salt water.
Ground balance lol um who told you that, the simplex don't ground balance

You need to write a whole book about this. Planning out how to get my first purchase and each video goes into so much like theory and detail.

Also, the "double headed nail" you found is actually a brass rivet, probably for binding leather.
It's a rivet. Horse tack. Holds 2 pieces of leather together
the thing you said you liked and looks like a double head nail... kinda.... is an old rivet. used on saddles in the old days

Simplex should do another update on the simplex plus 2.78 for the beach. Great video as always
Can you please tell me the name of that song when you find a ring I sing it in my head when I go to work and I have nothing else I need to know it so I can put it on my Pandora
Orchard beach, I’ve pulled thousands off that beach over the years.
Ground balance it manually to zero and it will be less noisy.
Manually ground to zero on beachmode, and than go to park 2 mode. Sensitivity 3 to 4 notches down 👍 chatter will be almost disappear completely.
I've had a horrible time at the beach this year with mine, next year I'll need a better beach detector if I could get one.

Merrill I use the nox 800 what you think for a backup simplex or vanquish
Vanquish hands down on salt water beach!....It is a Nox jr.
Wow. You are playing jazz on that thing!
Merrell I’d like to see you do more videos with the bank was in the salt water on the beach and in parks I love my 440 but I would like to see you do some more videos with the vanquish
RNB makes an external battery ($42) that mounts easily on the Equinox that you could use in the meantime...
Why does that metal detector sound like a sick duck call or honking geese? LOL
The Simplex was originally designed for calling in bobcats and someone discovered you could use it for metal detecting.
The Deus would have been perfect for those beach conditions since it does well in wet and no waves to worry about. You should use the Deus more cuz it’s a great det3ctor
What do you recommend? The wet sand program? Any alterations to that?
@@MetalDetectingNYC you need to ground balance.put it back to o and you won.t hear all that chatter.works for me

Dave Thomas appreciate you unlocking Wendy’s
Simplex dose not have iron mode on beach, you think its constantly falsing silently in the background and thats why they dont let you hear it?
I hate it when I come to a stop sign and people got there first and takes away ALL my options.
So what really is the best detector for beech
27min 30 sec. I couldn't stop laughing. This is my curse, dozens of them every time I'm on beach.😂
Minelab Xterra pro vs saltwater beach video would be great.👍
Did you ground balance too 00 on the simplex at the Beach?? ⛱
Merrill ya sexy Sushi eater, I just ordered a Simplex.
How dissapointed am I going to be when take it to my local beaches here in Australia?
I know it's a single frequency machine but I'm just hoping it's not as bad as my old AT Pro? 🤣😬🤦♂️
Some folks say on the beach, to run the ground balance all the way (00.0) down. Son't know cause KY is a long ways from a saltwater beach.
Merrill, try 2.78 software update. Simplex is much more stable.

The Simplex is not to complete against the Minelab Equinox but rather the Vanquish.
Got that right my nox 900 kills my simplex lol
Merrell manual ground balance to 000
The only machine you're comfortable with is the nox. Get another one for a back up. Even your videos seem disjointed when you don't use it.
Exactly!.....I own two for that very reason!.....If one goes down the other will step in to keep me going.
That thing is a cufflink..
Day 14 of keeping the RUclips algorithm aware of you.
