The definition of "dig everything"?

Hello fellow hole diggers,

I'd like to know everyones definition of "dig everything". I own a XLT and was curious what exactly everyone meant.

All solid signals?​
All solid signals with a VDI number variation within (+ or -) 2 to 5?​
All soild signals regardless of VDI fluctuation?​

I want to make sure that I have the correct definition so I don't miss anything.... ;)

Thank you all in advance

GL & HH,

Re: The definition of "dig everything"?

Your threshold needs to be just into the hearable range. Too much and you can miss the faint signals, silent and same thing-also loss of depth.
With the faint hum of the threshold, if it goes silent then probably iron which is discriminated out

There could be various reasons for the crackling beep. But i suppose the two most common, or basic causes are, your detector is trying to discriminate out the target, or there might be a good target and a bad target very near to each other.
? ? The threshold going silent immediatly before and immediatly after the target, generally means your detector is, or is trying to discriminate out the target.
? ? ? But i would suggest digging some of them, to better understand and to gain confidence in what your detector is telling you.? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? HH
To make sure your threshold is set properly, raise the coil a foot or so and then lower it to the ground. If set right, there should be no change in tone. If it lowers in pitch, adjust the ground bal knob to the right. If it raises in pitch, then adjust to the left and always hit the retune aftwerwards.
See if this helps. HH
