What's cool with the Nox 800 is that we don't have to imagine turning it into that 3 tone machine. We can easily customize the tone bins. I've done it to hunt for deep coins and focus more on tone quality and repeatability rather than being misled by jumpy pitches.
Thank you for the insight! Can you be a little more specific about this part of your reply? Are you using 50 tones, or 5 tones with a high pitch on target areas?
Dang it!! No, no, no...
Anyone living in the NW Ohio area using an Equinox, do not watch detectorben’s video or read any of TS’s or jmaclen’s detailed posts....

Anyone living in the NW Ohio area using an Equinox, do not watch detectorben’s video or read any of TS’s or jmaclen’s detailed posts - they are full of lies and misconceptions! Keep walking past those “jumpy”, deep signals; they’re all junk! [emoji38]
For everyone else, pay close attention to the video and the discussion here - it’s perhaps the best, most insightful, and easiest to understand demonstration of how the Equinox alerts on deep, desireable targets. Like Longbow62 mentioned, I had to dig a few of these kinds of signals on my own before the lightbulb went on for me...a thread like this would have saved me a lot of trial and error as I was learning the machine!
Thanks again for all the kind words fellas!Thanks. Ben's video is worth 1000 show and tell videos as far as spurring discussion.
I've experimented with videos. I have a chest mounted GoPro and figured out how to use two mics to hear both the headphone audio and my voice. I'm stuck on the idea of videos that include the discovery of the signal, and having the camera running all the time is both a chore and a distraction. I can see why few people do it and eventually go to turning it on after finding a signal worth featuring, either good or bad. The other option would be short scripted instructional clips. Then there's editing..... I can see why people post unedited videos.
Unfortunately, for the past few months I haven't had much time or opportunity to sniff out much of anything, much less deep shiny silver. I rely largely on private permissions and by March I had pretty much wrapped them up.
I often leave camera on for approach to targets as well and have hours of that footage. I have a couple of videos with that footage on my channel as well. I blow through batteries very quickly that way though so I don't always do it. Then there is all the added editing time sorting through hours and hours of footage. It is a LOT of work! Lol.

Haha Thanks! Hope it helps you find some more goodies!I just found this thread....AWESOME video, thank you very much. I'm going to put it into practice in my "hunted out" park
You're a VERY fast digger
While we're on the subject of deep silver with the NOX, does anyone have any feedback on the 6" coil and deep silver? I have some heavily pounded, super trashy parks that I still think have potential, but the trash is so heavy that the standard coil is just too busy for me to discern good targets from trash. I'm wondering if the 6" coil loses the much needed depth I think I'd need in these parks.
