Went detecting yesterday and today at a buddies apartment because the weather is finally starting to get a little better here in NY. I decided to bring along my Whites Eagle Spectrum to try because I normally use a different machine, but I picked up the Eagle Spectrum for cheap a while back. For 20 years old the machine still works pretty dang well. The site is pretty trashy so that was tough trying to distinguish the tones because they were just jumping around, but I'm getting the hang of it....so on to the finds. I managed to find a 1963 Rosie, a 1941 Merc, and a 1943 Merc, a 1954 Dog tag, a little thing of cologne? (with stuff still in it), a Womans Brooch pin (which doesn't have any markings to my knowledge), and a slaymaker super lock with door hinge still attached...My buddy had the best find though..a 1936 D Silver Quarter.

I'm using like a combination. I decided to turn tone I'd on and changed a couple other things, but it's about the same. I was jut in a really trashy site and like every swing had a hit, so idk how to combat that

You need to reject iron and accept certain VDI's if you already haven't done that. I reject everything below 0 and pretty much accept everything on the plus (+) side, but you can do whatever you want. The instructions are in the manual. I use a 6" coil to get in between the trash, and it really does. The Blue Max 600 or the Black Max 5.3 will work fine with the Eagle Spectrum.
