Nokta Detectors, “Hello everybody! Just want to clarify a confusion. Beast mode is a mode itself! We didn't have enough space on the screen to have a separate icon for it. Therefore we use the Gold Mode icon to go to the Beast Mode. Beast Mode is a separate mode. Hope it's clear!”
Forgive my wordy post here, the older I'm getting, the longer it takes to process and comprehend. I kinda have to"talk it out" so to speak.
I guess I'm reading that and the other above posts right, and it would make better sense. You now have Park mode, Field mode, Beach mode, Gold mode and the new Beast mode. So Beast mode is NOT a part of Gold mode at all, if I'm reading right.
That would make sense on why there is not enough room for a fifth Beast mode icon on the screen next to Gold, not enough realestate. Instead, make Beast Mode accessible through another mode, kinda like the secret unseen sub menues for other items like IF, BC.... In this case they used Gold mode as the launch or staging area to get into and activate the new separate mode.
To indicate you are in a new completely different mode, they are using the BM letters under the frequency icon instead of a whole new Mode icon like a wolf head next to the gold prospecting icon. Am I seeing this right or did I just waist a lot of words?
I see why they are doing it that way but the menu's are getting more and more crowded and hidden. If they come out with a new legend, they will have to completely rework the contol Box.
It could use easier to navigate menues, currently it's a hard learning curve.
Outlined or illuminated easier to see buttons. Outlined is cheaper or just paint yourself.
Maybe a quicker way to hook up charge cable instead of all the screwing unscrewing you have to do at the risk of messing up the threads.
I think it's s great machine but man it's starting to feel crowded. I don't know, just a newbies look at it all.
No matter how well you do something, someone is always there to suggest another way.
