It took me a VERY long time to get a handle on it.. Several hundred in fact.. And I was playing with various settings.. What i should have done is take the time to learn the nuances of the machine before I messed around with the settings.
That being said, I stuck with it, and now you could not get a better machine for my areas than the Deus...I am working several drowned towns and a good many ghosties.. and it performs like no other.. When i get to my areas, the first thing I look for is nail beds... and then I head directly for them. It is amazing in those places.
I have a buddy who comes with me and he has an etrac... much of the time he is unable to even hear the targets I am hearing. It may be the way he is using the machine {for as we all know, the etac is a fine unit}, but I get more depth and better separation than he does. And not just on surface targets.
I am hearing .22 cases at 6 inches in a nail bed.. Not that I want to dig a .22...... but it is a good example of what the machine is capable of.
