Had a Vision today and it was..

[plumloko]

Alot different than my XLT.
This machine for me is going to take alot of getting used to.
It does get deep but to me it is noisy.
I am used to a concentric coil and had a hard time pinponting with the 2D coil.
But I guess it will all come in time, it better for $1450!
I found a barber dime and 2 wheats and tried to get a pic of the analyze screen with them.
Sorry they are fuzzy but its hard to focus on the screen.

What did the vision depth meter read on your barber find?

What did the vision depth meter read on your barber find?

It was at 9 when I found it and it rang in clear.
It was down there!
I had a mega hole trying to find it though....I gotta get used to the pinpoint otherwise im going to hit something.
Hopefully Sunray gets a pinpointer for the Vision in a hurry!

Your new machine has already started paying you back. I think with that you will have your $1.450 back in no time.
Keep us here all posted. I wish you well on your future hunts. One good find is all it takes.

I noticed that you live in Ogden.
I went to that huge lot on 24th?? and washington last year and it was picked clean.
Maybe I should try this machine on it and see what it can really do!

Im sure you can pinpoint with it I just have to get used to pinpointing with a 2D coil.
I just have to figure out the spot on the coil, I only had it out for an hour today.
Im used to a concentric coil and never hit anything in 15 years.

I take that back, I did hit one thing!
My musicians belt plate.
But that was down about 12 inches and I was being impatient.
Thank the lord I hit the back!!

Too high tech for me. Good luck and hope you do well with it

I use the WOT on both of my Sovereign GTs and it is a double D coil. I really don't have any problem pinpointing with double D coil.

Below descirbes it better then I could. It is off of JB's Metal Detecting Resource Web Site and it works for me every time.

"You cannot "X" the coil to pinpoint like other machines with a concentric coil. There are a couple of different ways to pinpoint, but learn the basic way first. The way you pinpoint with a double-d coil is to sweep over the target, side to side, until you get the loudest response. Once you've stopped sweeping and the coil center is over the loudest response, without moving the coil and using it as a pivot point, move your body around the center of the coil and sweep side to side along the imaginary line that the center of the coil would have made when it was over the loudest response before moving. You should now be 90 degrees from where you started and sweeping the coil side to side until you get the loudest response again. Where the two imaginary lines cross is the center of the target. It takes a little practice but in no time at all you'll be able to do this quickly and accurately. Because the double-d coil is hot from the toe to the heel of the coil for about 1 to 1.5 inches wide along the center, pinpointing is a two step process. You get the first center "line" then the second center "line" 90 degrees to the first. I hope this makes sense. Re-read your manual. I almost forgot, pinpoint in the "all-metal" mode."


Hope this helps and keep us informed. I am interested in the Vision..........

For $1500 it should dig your holes for you.

 

[sniffer]

I'm still saving to get mine

 

[Wheresthegoodstuff]

You can also try pinpointing off the front edge of the coil. Works for me.

Great reply and thanks!
I will definitely give that a try.
