  • Please help me learn all about salt and conductive effects on a VLF

    As title

    I am happy to just have the relevant links added so I can do the reading, don't expect for someone to spell it out,

    I am a beach only detectorist.
    I am forced to use a VLF due to the amount of small and larger Iron that is laying down at the hard packed layer where all the other goodies are also laying on my beach.

    once I come to such an area, A PI would be to much work, so a vlf is what I have been using, only I have yet to find a VLF that I am happy with.
    I have tried all the top brands, well 99% anyways, ie D2, Manticore, Noxs, Sov etc etc

    I my recent trip, it was incredible to see how the same machine (a VLF) performed with the tide going out, detecting close to the water's edge, compeered to when the tide was coming in,
    The saturation difference had a huge effect on this so-called top off the range VLF

    I can only recommend a multi frequency detector for the beach or a Pi /VLF highbred.

          Did you also try different size coils on all these machines? It could well be that a smaller coil may actually find more than a stock or 'large' coil choice would.
          It seems popular for beach guys to go for 'larger' coils; whereas land guys know that size isn't everything, and circumstances can favour a smaller coil.
