I've always found that dealing direct with the manufacturer is the best way to go. Things get done faster without all the back and forth phone calls required when trying to deal with a Dealer Distributor chain. Less headaches and quicker satisfaction.

I believe it depends on the areas you hunt. On sand bars frequented by boaters it has been nearly 100% Men's bands and above the nickel range. Public beaches and campgrounds can are a different story and I can't say whether one conductivity range predominates.

Exciting times! First the Equinox now the MD8000 and with the Aquamanta on the horizon it's like a kid in a candy store.
The ML team, Alexandre and now Dimitar have given us a new MD'ing world to explore.

The manual describes it as slightly shifting the frequency. Which is a pretty dumbed down explanation since its a MF detector operating at supposedly 3 frequencies.
They do mention that each mode needs to be cancelled individually which makes sense. But does it slightly shift all frequencies?... I think I read that somewhere. Or does it shift the main or dominate frequency currently in use

When zeroing out the wet salt is there a range or does it have to be spot on. Like running a slightly positive ground balance,,,only different.

I don't snorkel or dive, but they have plenty of volume on the Nox. I run tone vol at 25 and volume 11 (quiet surroundings) to 15 (heavy wind, waves) which "should" leave plenty of room for losses when the speakers are submerged. I ran volume up to 25 just now as a test... Ouch!
Edit: I run a little threshold at 5 which is just below barely audible for me. While threshold 7 i

While I can't say if it helps modulation or hurts it as I haven't tested it on the Nox, I personally run both headphone and selected bin volumes wide open adjusting with the main volume control. I do know that on the X-Terra 705 that does help with its weak response on fringe targets.
Many old timers do the opposite running the detector volume wide open and adjust with phones. Could

Tracking on the X-Terra is an iron bias so to speak. Very necessary for see through. I was sent a XT 30 to play with before the 70 arrived and comparing signals on undug targets the cheaper 30 blew the 70 out of the water for see through.... until I turned on tracking GB. Same thing with the Coinstrike, let it track and see some iron in the process then turn tracking off.

Hey Dilek
Would you translate the Turkish in the blue, what I assume is the submit button. Kills the competition?
I hit it and got no confirmation my entry was submitted.
Thanks

Do you have a road map of where the Anfibio series development is headed as in machines developed for more specialized tasks?
Will the Multi be part of this series?
