Back to irony patch w/Racer 2 w/New small 5.5" coil Video

I went back to the iron patch as seen in some other "Racer 2" videos.
This time I took the NEW Racer 2's Small coil at 5.5" and is perfectly round complete w/coil cover.

I liked it! It 'unmasked' several of those "iffy sounds" heard with the standard 11" coil.

Nothing earth shattering found but it was interesting and there are plenty more signals AND there's still that missing ring I've been hunting for that refuses to show up!

Good Hunting

Des thx for the vid, liked how you cleaned the hole out of all metal. You can see how the ID was hitting multiple targets and then seen why. The vid I have of the Racer button hunt comes to mind with the iffies left behind that evening. Need to get back over there and go after some of them...may be surprised at what comes out. Keith spoke of the bleeding of tones before. In watching this vid and looking back at mine it made me think, I had went after only sweet mid tones that evening. Had a sweet tone and after flipping the plug it went to a iffy bleeding tone. Removed the trash and got the keeper. Those iffies I was leaving could very we'll have been a keeper with trash above or very close to a keeper I see now.

Great vid for learning that and thanks again.

Tom Spot on ..

Thats where the Bleed and Blend Overtake the One snap shot at a time type units..

This On top of each other tones are very telling....Learn them ..Tune your ear to them..

Also remember things like small iron tone mixed with small or larger sounding Non Ferrous tone is usually a hidden Gem..A larger than nail iron Tone with the smaller sounding non ferrous tone is USUALLY a false..Let the audio paint a Picture for you..Its a free flowing report and why is important to hear as much of what you don't want to dig as it is want you want to dig..

Let the unit Talk to you..

A Lot of units can only do one report at a time..Once the report starts it has to finish before it can report again..Those type units will rely on Recovery speed to unmask..And while the faster units can unmask quite well they can not report 2,3,4, target's at once in a calliope effect..Those units are gated so when they start they have to stick to original assessment..Not a blendy unit though it can change its mind mid sweep of target if it likes..

What the Makros and Noktas and XPs and Deeptechs etc are doing is Free flowing open audio gate...plus there fast..couple that together and another step in the site opening takes place..

There will come a time that the fastest machine in the world can not report a intermingled target ..this is where Bleed and Blend will step up the game..

The Audio will become second nature to you once you LISTEN..there will be tell tale HITS to alert you to dig..

Knowing target behavior is PARAMOUNT Sizing wise..Don't look at the screen for the first 40 hours in iron hunting..The Audio is painting a sonic picture in your brain let the Images develop in your mind as you hear them..Once you get in the zone the Unlocking of non ferrous from ferrous contamination will become second nature.

People want imaging let the Audio become your imaging device..

Lol nothing at all wrong with that Keith. From the way it sounds you've been waiting a long time for the Relic. A unit that takes a little from others, added to that as to what you and others seen needed plus what it already had to offer and give you one sweet Relic machine. Can see why it is now taking up a lot of your time.

I'll be hitting that site again with a new mindset. Should make for an interesting hunt.

Thx

"Thank you for your positive Comments gentlemen...I appreciate it LOADS as both a detectorist and a amateur film maker!"

Tom B - thanks for your Message re OOR - I had forgotten and when 'on camera' easily forget stuff that I wanted to say and include..."

Good Hunting

"Me again......

I'm thinking about going back to that patch and doing 2 things.

1. Dig and fold back a few feet like lawn turf...just lift and roll

2. Use the OOR coil - I've a feeling it's 'sharper'? (it was very sparky on the Red but didn't use it yet on the R2)

There's a men's gold signet ring "with blue stone" lost there!!! (and 2 other wedding bands lost by the former landowner sadly now deceased.
But I'd like to find at least one of them for the families...???

Very nicely done Des. Shows the ability of the small coil in high density trash amazingly well. Love the audio. I think it and I will get along famously

R2 on the brown truck today!!

Appreciate you taking the time to post and share the Racer 2 with 5" coil.

HEY DES, AFTER WATCHING YOUR VID A FEW TIMES, I THINK YOU WOULD BENEFIT MAJORLY BY BRINGING THE GAIN DOWN TO 20 OR SO AND REMOVING LARGE TARGETS. ANOTHER THING THE WILL HELP IS DROPPING THE ID FILTER TO ZERO.(SORRY CAPS).
