Theres lots of missed coin stacks waiting out there that have seen a coil overhead a time or two...try it with a handful of clad on your machine...do some stacks and slants and tight spills to get an idea...a $5 gold coin on top of a seated half will sound like junk...a buff nickel on top of a SLQ is a junk signal...about nobody would dig because it scrambles the brains of about any rig...Single coins all alone are no brainers, its the pocket spills where the money is though!
So, considering tight spills and slanted stack pocketspills..Our rigs were just NOT designed to find them!...But there is HOPE!...
You quickly get the idea that a guy has to not base a dig decision on the TIDS!....A guy can hunt and find tight spills by AUDIO evaluating the Size and Depth and Profile of the target and what the surrounding junk is saying about how old the dirt is and what can be expected at certain levels..plus certain features of topography promote pocketspills...trees and hillsides etc...
Proportional audio is very helpful so a guy knows the depth audibly and dont have to look at the screen...This is one of the reasons I went back to the F70 after trying out the NOX for a season....It had no real advantage in these tight spill situations for me...
Not saying you cant do it with the NOX, just saying..I couldnt do it as fast and accurately as I could with the single freak 70 features and benefits....Theres Money in the spills and multidenom slanted stacks!! Claddies know this!

Imagine..getting coil over a tight pocketspill of 5 silver dollars with a harmonica, a jacknife, and a Gold Double Eagle on top!! What a confusing signal! A guy would look at the screen and ..think, "hell, that aint nothing! And then go back to sniping this area thats full of Indian pennies and V nickels!
