- Top 3 Vital Settings that make the Minelab ETRAC a Silver Coin Killer; THE WORLD'S HOTTEST Metal Detector For SILVER COINS!
You need to do this, here is why:
1. Threshold Pitch (increases tonal differential amongst 50 conductivity notches) The higher you can program the tonal pitch of targets, the better you can hear and differentiate between high signalling copper pennies and high signalling silver dimes (this will be most helpful for our community detectorists in the US where regular dimes signal high with silver dimes. In Canada, the pennies signal high with the silver dimes. What the threshold pitch does when you maximize it, is put further tonal difference between these very close but completely different targets. The less pennies and regular clad you dig, the more time you will have on your hands to swing for silver coins.
2. Low Noise Cancel Setting (1 maintains the lowest possible frequency @ 1.5 KHZ)
Forget the Automatic Noise Cancel setting, and set it manually to “1”. A “1” noise cancel setting maintains the lowest operating frequency of the ETRAC. If you auto set the noise cancel and the ETRAC sets it at a block 9, you lost the lowest operating frequency which is what will provide you with the best and quickest response to silver coins.
3. Fine Tuned Ferrous & Conductivity Discrimination Settings (754 Target ID’s)
There is no other consumer metal detector on the market that has this ability! Silver Quarters and Bottlecaps…many detectors are renowned for being unable to accurately differentiate the difference between the 2, especially with DD coils! 95% of detectors on the market focus ONLY on the conductivity of a target. Some detectors have a thing called iron audio, which gives the operator a slight chance to hear any iron in a conductive target. The ETRAC has a massive amount of finely tuned ability to provide BOTH the conductivity numbers of the Silver Quarter & Bottlecap, but the ETRAC also will tell you HOW MUCH iron is also in the target. I cannot even recall the last time I dug a bottlecap. The ETRAC doesn’t “grunt” over iron, it eliminates it, and I don’t need to hear it! Do you? Do you want to hear an iron grunt and decide whether you want to dig the target or not, or do you want the detector to do all that work for you and just let you know when there is silver in the ground?

The minelab explorer 2 is one point five khz to one hundred khz, I manually set the noise cancel instead of using the automatic settings, it's good for silver coins and items, it's good for gold coins,rings etc, it may not be an ETRAQ or equinox or Deus but it's a reliable and methodical detector when it's set up properly, it's taken me years getting to understand this machine and I've never regretted buying it, it does what I want it to do , my advice for anybody is go slow with your swing and keep it low to the ground ,happy hunting all of you out there
I've heard nothing but good reports on the minelab's explorer 2, and almost bought a used one. Instead I purchased a new E-trac and use it nearly all the time. I use my NOX 800 at the beach.
The explorer II is a killer machine!
People shy away from it because of the technology that’s out there today but I’m here to tell you the explorer will find anything that these modern detectors will find and I would guarantee it.
I kick myself in the can every time I think about the ones that I sold. I wish I still had one.
Great video! I've been running my e-trac for about 11 years and I've crushed it with the exact settings you're talking about. Using it that way has found me over a thousand silver coins 2 gold coins plus gold and silver jewelry. Dig them Silver's. All the best. HH. JOE.
Awesome & huge congrats...and you know what Joe, you will keep killin' it out in the field! Wishing even more success! Jason
I find myself rewatching all your Etrac videos quite often - great stuff.
Great explanation of THP working with Variability. Also just learned something new with the NC setting. I did, however, discover that channel 1 is the best channel for hunting under or near high voltage lines.
Thanks- I’ve had the extrac for several years but your videos have shown me that I need to spend more time programming it . GREAT VIDEOS
Hey Kevin, Im happy to hear they have helped is some way. Thank you for showing your support and I wish you the best to end the year and going into 2021. Jason
Great video..I have only used the E-TRAC 12 times so far and i have found 16 silver coins with it..My setting are very close to this except i haven't tried the manual ground balance of 1...Will give that a try..Thanks for the tutorial..
That’s how I tune mine. It makes silver higher toned than clad where the ctx they sound the same.
I really enjoyed your video on this subject, very informative. I was not aware on the noise cancel being set on 1. Thanks for the info!
I’m new to the e trac as well. I’ve used the equinox for 3 years and decided to give this unit a try
Mike I've used the Equinox for a few years myself and it paid for itself in gold and silver in less than a year. I just got an etrac and it's way more complicated to learn than the Equinox. I have however found deep silver with it.
estupendo yo yambien lo quiero...
@@indianheadjerry2622 etrac es mejor que equinox!! y ctx es mejor que etrac!!, esta empresa no es idiota, no vende detectores más baratos siendo mejores......... no no
I picked up an Etrac years ago and never really had the chance to learn the device well enough to do much. I was coming from an old Whites 5900 Di Pro and traveled a lot so time was just not there. I did venture out and bought an Equinox and have used it more often especially on multiple trips to the beach. Kids are now gone and not traveling so more time and really want to get to know and use the Etrac. Late but never too late to learn and really like your videos.
The ETRAC is awesome hands down. I personally cannot get use to using any machine that offers just that one conductive discriminate scale...the ETRAC has 2...conductive and ferrous...together they are still unbeatable even today! You will dig a lot less trash, and the pattern and settings that I have been using day in and day out...I rarely dig trash...the dual disc system takes all the guess work out of it...if you set it up correctly that is. Appreciate the kind words and your bit of a story - GL & HH Jason
Thanks for this explanation, I miss etrac and it makes me want to revisit it. Well done.
I've dug 41 Spanish Silver Reale dating between 1556-1789 most in the 1600s here in St Augustine Florida in 450 yr old sites loaded with unbelievable amounts of iron from 100s of years of reoccupation, I use pretty much the same set up but due to the overwhelming amount of iron I open my screen up and just listen through the iron, it's the only way to work in the extreme iron.

I just bought an etrac so I will be watching all of your videos to learn how to find that deep silver, I will have it in a few days and would love to know your settings
Absolutely - email us at: diggin4lifeteam@outlook.com
Nice video, I’m digging it!
E- Trac is 100% BEST IN WORLD IN 2023 JEAR
The etrac is my favorite machine.. I have a ctx 3030 and don’t like it as much. The etrac has better audio especially for high conductors.. I thought when I bought the ctx that my etrac would be a dust collector but it’s the other way around. Minelab dropped the ball when they failed to put variability and limits option in the audio. Also seems like etrac’s tones reflect the shape or simatry of a target where as the ctx seems to assign a generic or overly didgetized audio response.
Agree! I even bought another brand new ETRAC just to have a backup one. Still in the box with a brand new Sunray X12 coil...same set up as I presently use.
Thank you two for the confidence in my hardly used etrac.
I love my ETrac. It really does whistle in your ear when you swing over silver. I'd like to see your programs.
Thanks,
TOm

@@Diggin4LifeMetalDetecting hello, please help with a pattern for coins patrickkupka@gmail.com thanks
I will send you the info today. Good Luck!
You love your E-trac. Great machine.One day you will love Equinox, just need to try it. ATB
It's not balanced Seb and not as refined for the elite like me and many others that use the ETRAC. Sorry about your loss my friend...keep swinging and keep walking lol. Cheers buddy!
@@Diggin4LifeMetalDetecting lol
Definitely one of the best videos I've seen on the E Trac if you have time I would definitely appreciate it if you could send me the silver setting
Appreciate that. Send me an email to diggin4lifeteam@outlook.com and I will reply with the info you request! Again...thanks for the support and GL & HH!
Great info and explanations! where was this 3 yrs ago? Lol
Lol. Appreciated. 👍
Thanks for this educational video! I wonder what discrimination setting you use. I see a big dicriminated (black) area and two little white boxes. did you create that, or is this standard on all etracs? Still got a lot to learn about this machine.
Appreciate the comment - all created based on 100's of coins being tested! Overall between all settings, these settings have netted me hundreds of silver coins and a lot more!!! They've been successful settings to say the least!
The pattern was created.
All the best and HH - Jason
@@Diggin4LifeMetalDetecting Thanks. Is there a way to get this particular setting myself? Can you send me the build of it?
Email me @ diggin4lifeteam@outlook.com and I will respond with the pattern. Cheers - J
Great video 👍🏼 how is it on a rocky irony beach?
The E will work fine. If there is a lot of old wet iron, I would use quite a bit of discrimination and make sure the 50/49/48 are discriminated out. Thanks for the comment and the support. GL & HH
I have a Etrac Minelab still learning is not that easy to use unless I use the settings it comes with etrac 🛸
Check under my Educational Playlist. You will find a few more videos on the ETRAC Wilbert. Thanks for watching my friend and Good Luck!
I bought a etrac not sure how to use it
Could you send me a list of those settings you spoke of at the end of the bideo?
Hey Joel - I need your email address sent to diggin4lifeteam@outlook.com.
Is there a way to see how you set up this discrimination pattern program?
Absolutely. Send me your email to diggin4lifeteam@outlook.com and I will send you some docs.
Hello,
Please send me the settings you talk about in your video. Ty
Send an email to diggin4lifeteam@outlook.com and we will respond with what you need Rudy. Thanks for watching and GL in 2021.
hi ya mate Dave from England what are the other settings on the etrac with the 3 settings you gave us thanks Dave.
Hi Dave. Send me a PM with your email, and I can send you all the settings. Thanks for watching & ATB...Jason
Hi ya Jason thanks for replying to me not had the etrac long but downloaded the etrac emulator and put them 3 settings in you talked about and the silver really pings out would appreciate the other settings to go with them thanks again Dave .my email is
taylord387@gmail.com
Hi Dave. The setting is what I use WITH ALL patterns. The settings all remain the same amongst all patterns. These settings are a standard across the board. These will provide you with the deepest seeking ability, the best sensitivity, the best differential of tones, and the best overall functionality! The different patterns are tweeked based on the pattern name and objective. Let me know if this makes sense. Cheers
Thankyou for the reply and information can't wait to get out and try these settings in the farmer's permissions I've got thanks again let you know how I get on cheers Dave
Odd, as Tesoros were killer on silver and most of them were around 10.5KHz. Low frequency is good for iron which is why the Fisher machines at 4.7KHz were deep, but loved iron.
A great discrimination system is good for iron too 😁 I had a Tesoro Cibola...simple machine with turn knob discrimination. I quite liked it except it didn't have the abilities to really seperate the silver from the pennies. I used it for pretty much a dig all unit and I dug a lot of clad. I sold it with the 10x12 SEF coil and spent all the clad.
@@Diggin4LifeMetalDetecting Which is why the Etrac with its MF scores so well with the target separation.
I'm going to try your variability settings, see how it pans out. TY. Great vid.
Okay, on the noise cancel. One video you say set it to 11, on another you say set it to 9 and now on this one it is 1. So, does it really matter?
Great point and I am aware of this discrepancy. What I believe you are referencing in regards to the "11" & "9" Noise Cancel settings, is that they revolve around the 6x8 SEF coil ONLY, which is the smallest searchcoil in my arsenal. Even so the Noise Cancel setting at "1" retains the lowest detection frequencies from a technical prospective, there seemed to be some unknown disconnect between the 6x8 SEF and the ETRAC where this is concerned. Now in regards to the stock coil and the larger coils on the ETRAC, the Noise Cancel at "1" hits small silver better and deeper than all of the other Noise Cancel Settings. Since these tests were completed, I use the 6x8 SEF on less than 1% of my digs because I lack the confidence with it. Hope this helps & thank you for the support Steve and these great questions! Cheers & HH - J
How do I set my noise cancel at 1.5 kilohertz, are you saying when you turn on the detector for the first time, it will be set at 1.5 kilohertz?
Set it at 1 HYS. As soon as you start moving up the noise cancel ladder number wise, you start eliminating your lowest frequencies. When you turn your ETRAC on thereafter, it will be set at 1. Remember, noise cancel has to be able to work at 1...that is determined based on how quiet your detector will stay after you set it. If it chatters or is unstable, you may need resort to doing an automatic noise cancel instead. To find out IF its the noise cancel causing instability, lower your sensitivity to 15 and raise the coil in the air and hold it still. If your detector chatters etc, then go ahead and proceed with an auto noise cancel. When the process is completed, start to increase your sensitivity back up again while maintaining your detector as chatter free. Hope this helps. GL & HH
@@Diggin4LifeMetalDetecting Are you saying go to Menu Setting then move over to the Expert column then go down to Noise Cancel and set it there to 1 (1.5)? I thought this unit was shooting 28 frequencies all at the same time, and since the noise cancel only has 11 (eleven) setting, I thought the noise cancel had nothing todo with Frequencies.
What automatic noise cancel does is start to eliminate potential interference frequencies that are in a given area (in the environment). Every noise cancel channel (1 through to 11) represents a certain or group of frequencies that would potentially conflict with interference frequencies that are in the environment (in the air) that you plan on searching. The last thing you want to do to aid in less responsiveness to silver; especially DEEP silver, is to eliminate the lowest possible detection frequencies on your ETRAC (1.5). Check your manual, and MANUALLY set the noise cancel on your ETRAC at 1! I have never heard of anyone having instability using this setting. Make sure your sensitivity is in manual and is at a stable setting as well. Detector instability is 99% of the time the result of setting your manual sensitivity too high. Hope this helps.
Hello.
I want to try your silver slaying settings as I detect hammered thin coins here in the UK please. Can you send a Facebook link etc please. All the best 👍👍👍
Send me an email to diggin4lifeteam@outlook.com and I will respond with the pattern for you no problem. Good luck in 2021.
Could you send me the list your talking about please ?
I can do that for you - please send me your email address to diggin4lifeteam@outlook.com - we will reply with the settings for you as an attachment. Thanks for watching!
Great video
i would love copy of your settings,as i know i have not set it up correctly
i will send you mail directly so you get my addy
thanks
jim
price?????
Where are you located. I can set you up with a nice deal.
Excellent minelab e-trac videos I'm thinking of getting one but price is very expensive i live In Ontario wondering if there is a good place to buy one at a reasonable price also is it a good metal detector in 2020 also what do you think about the xp deus?
