[QUOTE="graybeard77, post: 318828, member: 9692"] Hi all, Just joined recently, been fossicking around Linton area and so far I found a bit of gold the size of a grain of wheat. I keep getting a lot of hits from steel junk in the soil so I tried a DD coil and set it to discriminate against ferrous junk (that is, trying to block out iron signals). I'm sure I set things right, but I still pick up ferrous signals. Has any one else had this problem? It sorta works, if I get to a really big lump of steel like my car it makes strange noises, but I can't block out the smaller pieces. Linton has a lot of scrap iron near the diggings and I really would like to block out these signals. My minelab is the old GPX 5000 series.I bought it second hand. .........graybeard [/QUOTE]
