You have helpful answers from both Del and Mike, but it kind of depends on what your are trying to achieve.Quote

Hey Monte,
Way back in 2010 on Finds you responded to a PANTERA question with the following comment:
Quote
Monte
“You can opt to use the Notch Accept or Notch Reject to accept ONLY those targets within the notched range, or IGNORE (Reject or Discriminate) targets in that 'window.' Better still, you can just rely on the Primary Discriminate control (which I left at the minimum setting so as to reject iron nails and other small iron junk), and then adjust the variable Notch control to provide only a "Tone Break" audio response. That is, I could set it so that most shallow zinc cents and screw caps produced the lower audio response and most copper cents and clad and silver coins produced the high-tone audio”
I am trying to get the same settings on the PANTERA regarding the “2-tone, tone break” you refer too, however it’s not happening..
I don't use a Reject or Accept Notch setting. Instead, I just use it as a 'Tone Break' and adjust the Notch control, with the toggle in 'Off,' so that the better conductive coins, like most copper cents, clad dimes and quarters and the remaining silver conductive targets provided me a clean higher-tone when checked with the search coil swept over a 4" to 5" coin. When I had limited time to work a site I might ignore the lower conductive targets, and the warblers in that Zinc range, and just recover the better higher-conductive coins.Quote

What position are you setting the notch in?
Thanks!
HH, Aaron

I wish my eyes, either of them, could still see like when I was 50. That many years back triggers a few memories for me. That year included my '04' day at a Central Oregon small town highway renovation. They started tearing up the highway through town on a Monday that summer, as well as the sidewalks from building-front across the road to building-front. It is a very small town. An acquaintance called me on Wednesday, late afternoon, after he and his wife drove through the town and after the detour around the tear-up, he stopped and talked with a fellow running one of the pieces of equipment.Quote
