Looking for input on a new program I made for iron

So i messed around here at home with your test / same target set up, same results as you, i found Deus Fast worked the best out of all the stock and my custom programs, also noticed if i moved one nail out far enough so one opposite edge of the coil had no iron under it, the coin below the iron came through (no surprise I suppose ). I have the 9" coil, looking forward to the smaller coil coming with V4, should help find more goodies at the old iron infested sites. I also may start cleaning up some of the iron as well, i have the same feeling as you, more good relics and coins are to be found below the iron
 

I find myself using R3 S-1 sensitivity 90-92 disc 0 18khz full tones most of the time on sites with average amounts of iron/trash. Ill lower the reactivity on quieter sites and raise it on trashier. All my other settings pretty much stay the same. If I just want to pick out the high conducters and not hear it all then Ill notch 0-79. The Deus is infinitely adjustable but I prefer spending my time swinging and digging. If I go back to a site that hasnt produced much lately, I may try some adjustments but its never gonna be like new site again

Yes that Deus Fast program is great. I didn't even try that program with my iron/silver scenario, only custom programs. I will give it a shot.

I definitely look forward to see how the smaller coil will perform, pretty sure I'll have to get one.

I usually have reactivity set on 3 as well, but I'm starting to adjust as necessary at different spots. Today I went over a terribly junky spot at reactivity 5 and snagged two fairly shallow coins that I missed the previous five times. Stupid iron.

I have never tried notching. I'm going to look into that too.

Thanks for all the comments and advice everybody.
