AUDIO RESP 04 Let’s not worry about telling how deep a target is from the sound. Let’s hear every target for sure.
Expert Audio Overload 1

NOTCH 00-00

Ground Balance  Manual
Use Tracking to get a number then switch to Manual. Keep an eye on it.

Ground Notch 60 – 90 The full range. There is no downside to this setting and it should be fully greyed out on every program you have.

ID Norm Off  
ID Norm uses the TIDs from 18khz and piles all your good targets up at the top of the scale.

I use the Horse Shoe There’s just more information there.

The XY screen. I have done a lot of testing with this screen and what I find is that it locks up very nicely on coins. The problem I have with it is that it shows bad target for everything else. I like relics. If you hunt the XY screen I really do feel that you will miss out on a lot of targets that you would have been glad to have.

Things to remember

Tracking is a nice lazy GB setting, But to get the most out of your machine use manual GB and pay attention to it. Using a + or – bias of two or three points on the GB setting can help. All ground is different. You will find your way.

If you move the Reactivity setting it will automatically move the Silencer setting.

The greatest loss of detecting depth will come from too much Silencer and too much Reactivity. 
I never go above 1 for the Silencer and 3 for Reactivity.

I also build an identical program in the slot right next to this that I call CTTODD IRON. The only difference is that it uses 
FREQ 4. This helps with rusty iron and bottle caps. When you switch to this the target will break up if its junk. 
MOST OF THE TIME.
To do the iron check program you must turn off the ID norm setting or the numbers for targets won’t change when you switch back and forth between programs.
