to having your sensitivity set too high for the area, only often with
a more regular pattern of sound.
When it appears another metal detector is causing interference:
Press Options and use the up & down arrows to select Frequen-
cy. Use + & - to select among the five available frequencies. Fre-
quency shifting on the MX Sport is slight—not enough to result
in any measurable differences in sensitivity—just enough to avoid
interference from another metal detector nearby.

Salt Track

The MX Sport is a single frequency (VLF) metal detector. More
expensive multi-frequency and pulse-induction metal detectors
do have some advantage in wet conductive (salt) grounds. How-
ever, the MX Sport provides for excellent results in these wet
conductive salt conditions. The MX Sport Beach program has a
revised ground balance range to accommodate use in wet salt
sand because salt (when wet) is conductive like a metal target is
conductive.
Other situations where a person may need the expanded salt
ground balance range added to a program other than Beach
include Relic or Prospecting programs Thus, the salt option is
available in the Options mode and can be added or subtracted
from any program.
Relic hunting is often conducted in farm fields. These farm fields,
when wet and heavily fertilized, produce conductive conditions
similar to wet conductive salt. Add the Salt Track feature to the
Relic program when searching heavily fertilized wet farm fields.
In desert regions alkali (salt) patches are often found in good
nugget shooting areas. By adding the Salt Track feature to the
Prospecting program, these alkali areas can be searched effec-
tively for nuggets even when wet.
To add the Salt Track feature to any program:
1. Press Options and use the up & down arrows to select Salt
Track.
2. Use the + & - buttons to select either 1 for salt ground bal-
ance range or 0 for normal ground balance range.
