I find myself spending too much time on chatter with my X705.
Trashy areas that within the chatter of tones/numbers from trash, a diggable tone/number pops up.
But it is never consistent, even after changing my direction and speed of swing etc.
Yet I still seem to spend too much time and energy on that signal that turns up as nothing.
to back up, I have gotten better at picking targets out of clutter, and of those I do note that the signal was indeed "Consistent" .
So I have proven to myself the solid signal means target and warbled-inconsistent tones are not.
I keep telling myself to leave it and keep moving, but tend to second guess myself wondering if I'm walking away from a good target and the proverbial "What if".
So is it best to keep my first thought and spend that extra time?
Or good for the odds and better to move on and spend time on known targets.
Cheers
