got my etrac yesterday.......
and well today went to the yard I had all the interference with last week with my minelab x-70.
Took the etrac up front, hit noise cancel, and it ran smooth as a top, no interference at all. I had sensitivity in auto and it was 23, and I had +1, so it was running at 24. First signal I get is a deep dime signal. I cut the plug, open it up, out comes a nail, I scratch my head thinking hmmm, it was definitely a dime signal, ran out hole again. Dime signal still strong, pinpointer goes into the hole, out comes a second nail. I am getting frustrated. Run coil over the hole, dime signal is still there! Take a bit more dirt out and I see a silver rim in the bottom of the hole. Pull it out and it is a barber dime! 1902........I was literally AMAZED the etrac saw this dime underneath 2 nails. I was impressed to say the least!
Next I got a mixed signal, but it sounded good from all directions, cut a plug and got a silver nickel and 2 wheats, nice little spill. Ended up with one more wheat.
So two silver, and 3 wheats........2 hour hunt. First hunt with the etrac impressed me big-time!
here is a vid I made as well
