Re: MINELAB MANTICORE: DATA & PERFORMANCE
Right now........ the East Coast of Florida has a 2M vertical-cliff/cut. I will "try" to go today....... and test the conditions. . . . hoping for high-density targets to be exposed.

Re: Manticore vs tarsacci high mineral dirt?
I would more-so lean towards the Tarsacci.......... for bad/severe dirt. 5-bar and above.

Re: Manticore in black sand
Because black sand can be in striations...... you may want to use the Ground Balance TRACKING feature. Keep your Recovery Response Speed around 4.
Audio Theme = Prospecting...... may be the best audio choice.

Re: Rutus VERSA on new software 6.14 NC
Thanks Chris! Good to know. Yes..... we know that Manticore has 19 Noise Cancel channels. Works quite well !!!......especially with Long-Press Noise Cancel; ....yet, still not perfect. Any detector that can mitigate EMI to the NEXT level...... poses extreme potential for Sensitivity-increase...........

Re: Rutus VERSA on new software 6.14 NC
I know the Rutus Versa is Multi-Frequency. But is it SIMULTANEOUS Multi-Frequency (SMF)?
((( I speculate it is ))).
If it is SMF....... how is it's EMI mitigating abilities whilst in SMF?

Re: Rutus VERSA on new software 6.14 NC
Agree! This particular forum....draws the most technical, hard-core folks that are after: Geophysics and technological advancement(s)! If we can 'crack-the-code' ...of the secrets of: bad dirt, iron masking, ID & Depth limitations, better aluminum ID.......etc........ It REALLY can pay-off...out...

Re: Rutus VERSA on new software 6.14 NC
Chris...... yes........ their 2000 year old nails are indeed different from our 200 year old nails! Especially decomposition status. EL NINO...... Living in such an old area..... I would find it VERY difficult to "pass up" those low conductors......... knowing that gold coins and small cut...

Re: Rutus VERSA on new software 6.14 NC
Chris.....Another interesting video; yet, I'm not sure what was to be gained by this video. , . , . , . , other than: small target detection. The controls/settings (when changed) responded in a very correct/standard fashion.
