[QUOTE="cairnspom, post: 287237, member: 4645"] Ok, after a recent detecting trip I am wondering about adding a VLF machine to my collection! I was detecting an area in NQ, plenty of old workings, and I have a choice of an SDC or a Z, so finding targets was no problem, but...the areas contained so much "trash" it was seriously disheartening (not to mention bloody tiring!) I could get a signal about every couple of metres, and I know I was in the right area, some of them were broken miners pick tips. Some of these areas had obviously been pushed with dozers, so as well as that I was finding little scrapes off the blades up to whole broken off tines. So now to my question, would a vlf machine with good iron dicrimination help to 'sort out' the targets, and if so, what might be the best (and most economic!) choice? Obviously I have 2 good machines for finding targets I just want an option to discriminate the more obvious ferrous targets out of them [/QUOTE]
