By amplifying small signals you will also
be amplifying small spurious false signals.
By increasing the sound response you will
compress the dynamic range and thus reduce the
appreciation of a target’s depth.
If the reference target has a conductivity of 37, adjust the Notch value to 34-40
using . All targets with a conductivity between 34 and 40 will then be silenced.

The Audio Response enables you to amplify the volume of deep targets . It gives
the impression of greater power, however it does not provide any additional
depth as this setting only affects the sound curve (the dynamic range of
sounds).Lower Audio response levels give a good perception of depth
The Notch complements the discrimination: it enables a "target window" to be
rejected whereas discrimination rejects all targets below a selected threshold.
For example, if you detect a redundant, undesirable target in the ground, you
can decide just to reject the corresponding conductivity group and continue to
detect targets with a conductivity higher or lower than those in the group.
The different levels of soil mineralisation you encounter when prospecting can sometimes affect the
performance of your detector. For example, this may be due to natural magnetic mineralisation such as
iron oxide, hot rocks and magnetite, or sporadic mineralisation from sites of former human settlement
(also magnetic): hearths, pottery, hot rocks, slag, etc. At the seashore this may also involve mineralisation
ranging from magnetic grade (black sand) to electrical conductor grade (salt water) depending on
the beach or region.
If you are an experienced detectorist you may wish to optimise your searches to achieve better
penetration in some of these mineralised soils.
In magnetic ground with relatively uniform mineralisation, a setting which is adjusted according to
the ground effect will improve penetration by reducing the amplitude of the ground signals sent back by
the receiver circuits. This ‘adapted setting’ involves adjusting your ground balance value to the
average value of the ground being detected, while adding
1 so as not to hear the ground signals as much. The tracking and pumping modes do this automatically
if the ground conditions allow it. With the Prog.10 Gold Field it is vital to set the machine exactly to
the value of the ground.
