GROUND______________________________
______
With this control you can correct ground effects and
more accurately reject ferrous minerals or any pottery
containing iron oxides.
If you are prospecting on grounds loaded with
magnetic stones, it might be a good idea to keep a
sample of these rocks on you to adjust your detector before detecting
this type of ground. You only need to move a hot rock in front of the
search coil turning slowly the GROUND control from left to right so as
to obtain a total rejection of the stone.
If the mineralization is too scattered, sweep the head on the ground
and turn the control progressively from left to right in order to get
good stable detector. On mineralised ground, these procedures will
optimise your searches.
For maximum depth penetration, do not turn this
setting towards the right more than necessary.
The red arrow indicates a basic position suitable
for most ground.
