I have had my excal II for a while now but never got to run it in water until today.
I went to the beach and tried to detect a tidal pool and waters edge. Every time I bumped the coil or moved it quick or broke water surface it toned or falsed like a find.
Tried sensitivity of 2&3 and auto and nothing really helped. Is it better to stay deeper consistently and does anyone have some good salt water settings? I think the in and out of the water and bumping around the tidal pool changing depth from an inch to a foot was freaking it out.
My normal sand setting is a 7 and it’s rock solid perfect in wet or dry. The water is the only curve ball this machine is throwing me.
