Saw a new Equinox 800 user asking for some solid basics to get him started.\u00a0 While these ideas are hardly specific to the Equinox–they apply much more to this type of a high-gain\u00a0 low-conductor-sensitive machine like the EQ.<\/p>\n

-Listen for the more solid, centered responses. Unless you are hunting in dense iron, clipped skewed or broken responses are the machine breaking up on trash. Use a few coil passes to check targets for consistency. When you can “turn” a signal by keeping the sound at a slightly different angle–this means something that’s solid and consistent. As well, use the Pinpoint control to check if a signal is wide (iron) or sharper and narrow (non-ferrous). These simple basics will help you to develop your accuracy better than just random digging based on the audio. Try and develop the habit of using a broad based approach to examining your targets–you will progress faster that way and be surer of what you are digging.<\/p>\n
