[QUOTE="Goldpick, post: 93560, member: 1695"] One other thing Decado, you need to take it slow with your swing speeds on the Explorer. Compared to a single frequency VLF, swing speeds are much lower to allow the detector to process the multiple frequencies, and to help pick out those nice high tones amongst the buried junk. I have found the beach is the best place to learn about target responses and vdi numbers, as you have less junk to deal with, mainly iron targets. Heading to a junk laden park can be intimidating, with the sheer amount targets passing under the coil at any one moment. Stick with the factory preset to start off with until your confidence grows, then you can start to fiddle with discrimination and settings based in where you are likely to detect. The Andy Sabisch book posted above is an excellent insight into the Explorer, and describes various setups from people all over the world and why they use them, bets the heck out of the Minelab instruction manual. :) [/QUOTE]
