Thanks for the link on ferrite balancing Northeast =)

 

[Nothing Great]

My last couple of trips i havent bothered doing a noise cancel or ground balance just got it out of the car turned it on for 5 minutes and left it running laying on the ground while getting ready. This idea was suggested to me by a friend and has worked great so far. Gold every outing and its ran great so I think I will stick with it.

Happy hunting NG.

Interesting observation today. We are doing some pushing on an area we got a bit of gold out of. Its very variable ground, mix of quartz wash, gravels and white clay.
I know from past detecting here that even difficult moans and groans....Today tried normal...same moans and groans.. certainly wasnt any worse surprisingly!
Normal is a beast...detected some tiny bits of bucket shards in HY/Normal that actually almost blanked the machine
Some gold...Not much...need more

Yeah have been using normal more and more and with a bit of careful coil control and slowing down a bit the Z does stuff that continues to surprise even after 4 years of use.

I may use normal a bit more too
If only there was a way to make it ignore loader bucket bits ha ha.

I will be buying a gpz in the next week or so and wondering if the bigger coil is worth getting?

It's times like this that I wished the 7000 didn't go so deep

[user 11578]

My goodness that's a hole and a half

 

[Pro-oz]

Haha shouldn't laugh. Done that and don't want to do it to often, I don't think I've been that deep.

 

[Guest]

Yep GPZ will do that to you but you have to see what it is because one day hopefully it will come out as the right colour.

 

[Pro-oz]

I've almost been as deep, I have the same pick. digging a good sounding signal and up came part of an old fan belt :/ The ground was pretty soft, I think I must have been on an old pushed dump site, plenty of other filled in holes as well. Worked away, I'll never know

 

[Евгений]

don't despair. life always brings surprises, but sometimes its very pleasant.
