What does the meter max at? Looks like you'll have to dig everything above a 12-15 to not lose targets. Any minie balls or large cents to test, and was that an air test?

Full range is -9 to + 40.
I will post some numbers on 3 ringers tomorrow some time. Finial, eagle button, etc.

All objects airtested.

That works. I'll be on a day trip digging!

Don't forget that CHAIN in saltwater with a target ID of 1 LOL.

Did you find all of these with the 800 or were these past finds in an air test?

Found some of them previously detecting. Did not find great plate, bought it a relic shop to do detector testing with. Some of the junk targets I didn't find detecting.
Didn't find any of them with Equinox 800.

Great work...Thanks for sharing!

What numbers does iron read?

 

[sprailroad]

I myself am not a big believer in air test for anything other than what any given object might " sound" like for whatever machine is used, for depth and numbers? I think going thru a learning curve in the field and digging junk, is a better way of learning any detector, but that's just me.

I assume we will have some dirt tests by Monday posted at the latest. People are now starting to get the machines.
