Re: Models currently Offered per Manufacturer - Video - All Detector Manufacturer Reps should Watch

The test field is 2.5-3 years old... so the holes are already well sealed... here I wouldn't have to worry that a disturbed ground could strongly affect the target signal...a 4-5cm small piece of plastic pipe is only for marking the target... 2 lines of modern coins of medium conductivity are a good...

Re: Models currently Offered per Manufacturer - Video - All Detector Manufacturer Reps should Watch

First, let me go back for a moment, to CTX.., and how it can discriminate surface iron.. The iron in the test is from my detections...a demanding iron that can give false signals in many detectors... https://youtube.com/shorts/ymSqcGj7BQ8?feature=share yes, in a test for very deep iron it may look a...

Re: Models currently Offered per Manufacturer - Video - All Detector Manufacturer Reps should Watch

Looks like: LOWER FREQUENCIES is what works best in your dirt conditions. BUT....... I thought Beach Mode-2 would have performed better...in your dirt conditions.......due to its lower Freq's & less mineralization blowback/flyback. It is interesting to see how 'hot' your dirt is. It can be seen...

Re: Models currently Offered per Manufacturer - Video - All Detector Manufacturer Reps should Watch

Yes Tarsacci,, would be a good detector for testing.. especially for such conductive and complicated terrain... So far, the first place in target range is held by the dual-frequency detector AKA Intronik STF on a 2khz/14khz coil.. on coils 13", 15" and 18"..we tried all three sizes.. ...

Re: Models currently Offered per Manufacturer - Video - All Detector Manufacturer Reps should Watch

Small correction.... the surface sestertius is placed at a depth of 40 cm....not at a depth of 30 cm...but that doesn't change the fact that it is undetectable...for both CTX and Manticore.. For the sake of overview, I am giving a description of the complete "Old test field" : blue area......

Re: Models currently Offered per Manufacturer - Video - All Detector Manufacturer Reps should Watch

Manticore on 11 "coil ... could not detect sestertius even at a depth of 40 cm .... we tried and changed different programs ... but no result ... this conductive terrain is very specific .. A This test field is several years old and is quite extensive ... it also contains deposit targets at var...

Re: Models currently Offered per Manufacturer - Video - All Detector Manufacturer Reps should Watch

I watched the video... here I want to say ..one thing..sometimes it is difficult to compare CTX and Manticore... for example price vs. options... because they are generationally different detectors.. with a different type of multifrequency.. and also the idea of ​​the manufacturer,,what this detecto...

Re: Would a pinpointer with approx 12 kHz and approx 30-40 kHz or so be possible and help detectorist

In works! Mr. Dankowski, I'm glad that such a multi-F pinpointer is being worked on.. it's about stability of work in mineralized terrain, but while maintaining sensitivity and range for very small targets, very small "chips" of coins, and at the same time not losing range for small, medi...
