Good stuff ScoopyJoe on wanting to get a 900. I took it out for my first hunt yesterday, I hit a spot I hunted several times before and found more clad, and a silver coin. I'll put a video up soon of it. I hear you on the Canadian clad. It would be nice if it rang up better, instead of an iron sound.
I have used my 900 about 25 times now. I hunt coins and rings in the U.S. I thinking on notching out 1 through 10. Do you feel I could lose some gold rings? Watching your video and my limited experience with the 900 I feel I could notch out 1 through 10?
Thanks for watching from the US Ray. You could do that, but keep in mind in the target ID video it is air testing. A target ID on an object can sound different in the ground covered for years in dirt and sand, compared to an air test. Not uncommon at all to be working a beach and the target ID shows one number, but when I get it out, it has adjusted on the target ID. I will also never forget a detectorist (youtuber) using a nox800 on a beach, he was in all metal, and deep down he was getting that hum-hum-hum like iron trash sound. He started digging it up, as he exposed it more and more the target ID changed, the hum-hum-hum started going away. He ended up digging a gold necklace. My advice is investigate as many targets as possible. Sometimes what we think may be trash, can turn out to be treasure. But with that said, sometimes we can find ourselves in a park working some grass and fill was brought in to level the ground many years back. It can be trashy, lots of small trash objects. You may want to in that case notch your machine out, or instead of notching, make a mental note of it, and pass it by if you keep getting the same trash target ID.
Nice machine, good air test.
Thanks 👍
Nice hunt old silver ring
Thanks 👍
Super cool!
Thanks!
Thanks for the test, looking to get a 900 myself soon possibly. Shame that our Canadian clad is still so terrible!!
