Went out yesterday arvo, and today, used both the QED and the 4500.
Mate got a small target with a GPZ and called me over.
The 4500 with a 15" evo, in enhance, gain on 10, stab on 8, no target. Moved stab to 10, gain on 8, no target.
QED, mode 1, gain 3, 8" commander, no target, quite noisey.
QED, mode 5, gain 1, no target.
Dug the target, .2 gold at about 2 inches. Very hot ground.
Next target, Zed pinged, I tried the 12" evo on the 4500, again, no target. Flicked into NORMAL, gain 5 stab 5, target loud and clear. Tries to detect with those settings, after 3 false targets gave up.
The QED was noisy on the ground, it seemed to suffer from emi spikes, usually it is quieter than the 4500, but not today. Only thing I can think of is the detecnix wireless phones I'm using actually interfering with the QED, or maybe my mates Engel fridge in his car, about 15-20m away. Frustrating day.
Bias was quietest set at 52, which seems consistent.
