That's what happens when your ticking them off the calendar.
I sold had a 4 month stay on, contract. I worked full days for a few weeks, then after Xmas I asked if they cared if I did half days. No problem they said.
I was sitting reading the history, the Mrs asked if I was going to work.
Ya I'm doing half days now remember?
Well it's already 1pm.....
Oh crazy, I was late on the first day.
I lasted another 3 months
Then I said ,do you really need me here.
No
Bye

LOL I have been struggling to make it into the office by 1:00. I should feel bad because it’s the family business, but I can’t help it. I just hate to go. Today ended bad. I cussed. Several times. Oh well, rum time.

Rusty,

One issue with going in coin mode regardless of machine is masking or cancelling/nulling out. In relic mode you're pretty much hearing all the signals of targets under the coil.

In the case of coin mode the lower conductivity items will be knocked out....but say there's a hunk of rusted iron next to a coin odds are the machine will knock out both signals since you've knocked out the iron signals.

That's very good to know! Thanks. I still would like to try it for shids and giggles.

It will be a learning curve for me, but I think it may be profitable. I have only found two nickels in five years of detecting, and it's because it sounds like aluminum on all metal mode. I'm getting much better at picking out the sounds and VDI readings on all metal mode, but perhaps coin mode will be different.

The VDI on any machine is just telling you that there is a widget in this range, granted some are better than others. I do know that the folks that ran the MXT in the hunts in England had them opened right up to hear everything. Also it depends where one hunts for what coinage they're getting over. If your not digging aluminum then you're probably leaving a gold/nickel behind.

What Bill said is bang on, the preset programs do find-but they also leave behind. I used nothing but Whites for decades and each one was a bit different.

Have you built yourself a test garden of any sort?

Oh it must be a struggle to be ticking the clock down.
Cussing now that isn't all that bad-sometimes its just fitting to let loose a bit-its being a normal human being.

My own dear old mother said Fark one time-well it was the best Farking word devised with the family-tears were rolling teasing her years later.
One of the sibling would let loose, and she would just be fit to be tied.

This is what I tell beginners to pros who ask. Nothing like learning the machine under control.

 

[WHADIFIND]

They seem to be using Gary a little more this year. I like that. What did they say about the coal? I got a phone call and missed it.

That it was DeMolay Bros Genuine Templar Brand Coal.

I had a similar experience with my kids. Well past it now. But at work I usually have the tongue tamed. They took the fun out of telemarketing with the robo calls.

Good night ARC. Don’t worry about the rum. I plan on staying up for the late shift guarding it. [emoji4]

No, I never thought of it. I guess I should try.

 

[WannaDig3687]

I have done the test garden. For me, I think, it is something I need to do every year. Believe me when I say I don’t need to put a rusty nail in it. I am very familiar with the rust tones. LOL
I did snag some plywood strips tonight. My thinking is I will use them to set my area to detect, like an area of focus.

Good night folks.....
