Detection Range
Your CS8SST is a top performance detector but adverse soil conditions can significantly
reduce the depth of detection.
Detection ranges will vary depending on the size of the object, the length of time an object
has been buried, and the type of ground the object is buried in.
The best ground conditions are well compacted soils and coins can be found at the greatest
depth if the object has been buried for some time and the coin has interacted with the salts in
the ground, thereby appearing larger to the detector. The worst conditions for detecting are on
loosely compacted or freshly dug ground or when the object has only recently been buried. In
these conditions detection range will be reduced. 90% of all artefacts are found within 6" of
the surface.
Determining the Target Size
An operator who is familiar with his instrument will be able to do an excellent job of
determining object size, shape and depth before he digs. This technique is learned from
careful analysis of the LED bar graph and audio signal coming from the detector. Each time a
signal is heard, listen for any peculiar characteristics it may have, determine over how large
an area you get a detector signal, and try to 'outline' the object before you dig.
After digging up the object, compare the object size, shape, depth and position in the ground
with signal information you received before digging. After careful analysis of many signals
you will learn to 'read' the hidden target before digging.
