I have been a long time Anfibio Multi user and have never strayed from my favorite mode(3tone). I have not used the Multi too much lately as my main detector is an Etrac. The Etrac recently broke down so I started using the Anfibio. The last two hunts, I decided to use 4 tone mode even though I never liked the sparkiness and somewhat mushy tones in this mode.
I decided I was going to use 4 tone and force myself to adapt to it. I found I liked it more by using a slower sweep speed and keeping the gain between 70 and 75. Still sparky, but plenty deep. In fact, much deeper than 3 tone 90+ sensitivity. After an hour or so, I started liking what I was hearing and actually started finding 8-9 inch coins. A couple of wheats from that depth with near perfect numbers. At the end of my last hunt, I got a erratic high tone with mostly low 90's numbers. Nothing great, but it was a mid 60's quarter with a nickel with it. 11-12 inches deep.
There is definitely a place for 3 tone, but don't be like me and not try the other modes with this fine detector.
