Hello from White Plains, New York! I am on Jones and Robert Moses all the time with my Sand Shark and LOVE it!

FIRST, go back to page 12 in the manual and MAKE SURE you have set your tone frequency to match YOUR hearing the best. Do you hear high or low tones better? Next, set your pulse width to about 3/4 power (2-230pm position). Turn your threshold up to where you can barely hear it above the waves and wind noise - like a mosquito hum, and use the machine in NORMAL mode.

DO NOT just walk up or down the beach in one direction or the other! Pick yourself a 50-yard long beachfront, and start gridding it. You start at the wet sand high mark and detect right into the water thigh-deep, move over a step and detect right back up to the high wet sand mark.. Rinse and repeat until the whole 50-yards or 5-hours is done. If you do this for the first 50-hours on the headphones, not only will you find the good stuff, you will also develop your pinpointing and scooping technique in the surf.


After that first 50-hours, THEN you can start experimenting with VCO and more power, less power, yadda, yadda, yadda. The Sand Shark eats black sand for breakfast so don't worry about it - seek it out!
