Hi all. I have a promising area which is pasture land, which has never been ploughed. The question is what differences can i expect to find through signal strength and tone?
I have done beach work and ploughed areas, which i have found a happy medium with my Whites 300DFX. Pasture is leading me astray in ground balance and settings.
I have taken to keeping on all metals for now as i have began to tell pitch differences on the other areas mentioned, but the tones and readings all seem different on pasture. ??
Anyone with a whites who can help, or anyone who has similar problems?

Al you have a Exp II listed in your signature, if you have one then can I ask..Why aren't you using that on pasture or the beach for that matter?

Got the ex 2 on loan from a good mate of mine, although i use it from time to time, i bought the whites as my main unit. (the ex2 was his brothers who is no longer with us) long story, and knowing my luck something will go wrong with it. Huh
Had some good results with the whites so far, but i know there is a big difference on different pastures. Hoped someone has already hit this issue and can help me on my homework  Grin
