metal objects,. As the Discrimination Level is increased, more of these trash metal objects are
ignored and give no target response sound when inside the searchcoil's range.
The DISC LEVEL should be set to your
desired "rejection level" for the
particular area your searching. We
recommend starting at a low setting if
you are unsure of how much trash is in
the area. Adjust the level higher if you
find yourself digging more trash than
you like. Remember that with any metal
detector, you will lose target response
to small gold rings and nickels when
Discrimination is set at the pull tab
rejection level. So, digging some trash
will increase your number of good finds.
In Figure 14 above, DISC settings are shown where many of the common metal objects are
ignored by a typical detector. Each detector can vary a little due to manufacturing tolerances so
you should experiment with your detector and become familiar with its rejection levels for these
trash metal objects.
When searching in the Discrimination MODE, we recommend that you periodically switch to
ALL METAL MODE and check the area you are searching to get an idea of how much trash is
really there. In extremely trashy areas, it may be desirable to switch to a smaller searchcoil,
even though doing so may cause a loss of depth. The smaller coil will allow you a better chance
of finding coins between the close pieces of trash.
