Default Question About Discrimination

How do you use it? I have a whites dfx which I bought about 1 year ago. I know it's an awsome machine but do not have too much knowledge using it. I usually detect at the beach but there is a program already installed that says beach/jewlery and that is the one I always use. Any more info on this will be greatly appreciated.

Default Discrimination???

I'm not familiar with the DFX, but make sure that you can detect a nickel. Also if you are eliminating pulltabs and screwcaps you are leaving rings behind! Basicly, set it low to pickup nickels and dig everything that it beeps to! There are some tricks such as avoiding large wide signals but I like to find the spoons, sunglasses, watches, etc. Although aluminum cans are a lot wider signal than the previous mentioned items! GOOD LUCK..........
