Posted: Wed Jan 01, 2003 03:00 Post subject: Explorer 2 Programme With Extreme Depth , -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Explorer Programme With Extreme Depth This programme was used recently while recovering the Nottinghamshire hoard of gold & silver hammered coins- :coin piccy Most of the coins were 6 - 8 inches deep in the top soil….however, the last group of coins were recovered at a depth of 16 inches !! as can be verified by my fellow members of the Nottinghamshire Detecting & Recovery Team. This programme has proved beyond any doubt that it can pick up very deep targets from a hammered penny to a gold noble at great depth…..cheers John. Volume -----------------' 10 (set headphones to suit) Gain ---------------------' 7 Threshold ---------------' set to your own choice, I use 6 (silent) Tone Threshold --------' 10 Tone Variability -------' 6 Limits -------------------' 8 Sounds ------------------' Ferrous Response ---------------' Audio 1 (to boost any weak signals) Recovery ---------------' Deep Display -----------------' Advanced Smartfind Sensitivity -------------' 18 - 32 (depending on ground conditions) You may find these settings a little noisy at first…then reduce the sensitivity until you are happy. Also you will need to use a greatly reduced discrimination pattern than the one offered on the initial smartfind screen, this can easily be done by selecting nails only from the accept option with NOTHING else selected - leaving a small section blacked out in the top left corner ... alternatively you can create or modify this type of discrimination pattern to your own liking - but you can figure that one out on a rainy day with a few cans of beer. Cheers John. This programe is by John ,one of they Guys who found a hoard of Medievil Coins dating from 1200 AD up to 1350 AD Last edited by Jeb; 01-28-2005 at 03:26 AM. Reason: left something out |
