By placing the coil just off to the side or just above the target and re-pushing the pinpoint button shrinks the target response. After you re=push the pinpoint button keep holding it on. Then come back over the target and locate the target. Leave your sensitivity where it is.
Wish I saw this earlier. I have been beach-combing because it is easy to dig. I can easily identify foil, bottle tops and other junk without ever digging, but my biggest problem is pinpointing. Wish I saw this before I went out today! This was a huge help, thanks for taking the time. Videos beat reading the manual and trial and error every time.
Most department of natural resources (state parks) require you to get a free permit. Don’t get caught without it. Some Corp of engineer lakes require you to have a free permit issued by them. Also before I detect any park or property I get permission. Keep the names and phone numbers of whoever gave you permission with you at all times. Before I hunt any city parks I send an email asking for a permit. Usually they say none is required. Print and save the email. Best to have it in writing
Another quest I have is do I need a permit of any sort to detect at the beach? or any where “Public” for that matter like a playground or whatever? Thanks! rated 5 stars!
