The sun is shining, birds singing, coins popping. You're right, everyone's search area is unique to them and the machine needs to be tuned accordingly. I run no discrimination, six tone, different volumes/frequency for each zone. I like the Ferro check for bottle caps.
I love my Legend and your channel, Dan. Well done.
What more could you want right? 🙌👌. Always best to learn your machine and tune it into what you have 👍. Every situation is different and every piece of ground is too. Thank you so much for watching mate, much appreciated 😁👍
If your in a field where you suspect really deep targets may be found then running a light threshold is not a bad idea. As threshold will dropout when it goes over a target giving you even more depth out of the machine where you may not get an audio tone or vdi number. removing a shovel of dirt and rechecking the target may unveil something good. However as you said most people have gotten out of the practice of using the Threshold as today's machines are quite deep enough. I sill like to run it ever so faintly as it at least lets me know the machine is doing something if I'm in an open field where targets are scarce. Great Video and Finds - Thanks for the walk-through!
I will have to read up in the manual, a little more about it, because it's something I have never used before. Next time I'm on some pasture, I'll maybe give it a try 👍. My permission is full of iron and other bits from celtic times right through to modern, so it's very busy, and depth isn't really needed too much. Thank you very much for the info mate, I really appreciate, and thank you for watching 👍 😁
Thanks Dan, im in the U,S. and i want to thank you, you explained your set up slow and clear that I now understand it. thanks again,
You are most welcome buddy, I appreciate the good feedback 😁👍.
Thank you very much for watching
Dan this is fantastic this has really helped me understand and navigate through the menu. Even though I have read the manual it’s never as good as watching this how to video. Didn’t know where the hidden menus were for IF & AG but thanks to this great video I do. Thanks so much. Invaluable 👍🏻👍🏻
That really means a lot to me mate. So glad I have helped in some way 👍😁. If you come across anyone else who is unsure of the settings and menus, please feel free to share this with them 👍.
Thank you so much for watching buddy. Happy hunting 😁
I’ve just received my Nokta legend with this coil upgrade! So Thankyou ❤ newbie me loves this :)
You're welcome. You are going to love the Legend 👍👌
Great. Thanks for the Nokta Settings. Very Nice coins.
You're welcome mate 👍, I've adjusted the settings slightly since doing this video. If you take a look at the description below one of my latest videos, you can find my up to date settings there 👍.
Thanks for watching
Thanks for the tips and also what brilliant finds you had all the best Al
Thank you very much mate 😁👍
Thank you for taking the time to make this video! I was about to purchase a Minelab detector today until I came across your video and it has sold me on the Legend! Cheers!
That is great news mate, the legend is a great machine 👍. If you are in the UK, feel free to give Jordan a call on 01792 687321 at Dragon Detecting, mention Digger Dan and he will throw in some extras with your order 😉
Just got myself a legend, yet to go out. Really enjoyed this video and will start working through them all 👍
Great choice mate, one that you won't regret 👌. Just take your time with it, listen to the tones and learn them as you dig up the targets. Best of luck to you buddy, and thank you for watching 😁👍
Thank you for your time😎
Cracking hammered im.still a full hammered virgin lol,but im.sure i will get one very soon.great video again mate 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks buddy, best of luck finding your hammered coin. It will come mate 🤞🤞
some great set up tips and live dig tips. Thanks Dan
You are welcome Kev mate, thank you very much for watching 😁 👍
Thank you very much for the tips and introduction into the Legend Dan. I will most certainly save this video for when I hopefully get to buy the Legend.
Great to hear you are thinking of buying a legend mate, you certainly wouldn't regret it 🙌. Such a great machine, and the best you can buy for the money. Best of luck you mate, glad I could be of some help 👍.

Cheers John mate, much appreciated 👍 😁
Another great episode Dan 😁 thanks for sharing the settings and all I'll definitely give them a go! That LG30 coil on the legend is doing well!
Thanks mate, and good luck with those settings 🤞👌. Just play around with the sensitivity and recovery to suit your ground. The LG30 is a beast mate, total game changer for the legend 🙌.
Thank you for watching mate 👍
Great video, , as always. Thank you very much for the configuration masterclass and the tips. Very useful. Greetings from Spain!
Great to see you here all the way from Spain mate. My brother and his partner live in mallorca 👍.

You are very welcome mate, thank you for watching and good luck on the pasture 🤞🤞
Cracking Vid m8, thoroughly enjoyed it and the tips for new Legend users will be helpful
Appreciate that mate, thank you very much for watching 😁 👍
Good man. Excellent channel. Quality content and presentation. A pleasure.I particularly respect the ways that you take nothing for granted, least of all in the countryside. Your previous comment regarding the yellowhammer calling shows that you are, 'in-tune'. Cheers Dan.
Thank you mate, I just absolutely love being out there with the fresh air and nature 🙌👌. Gives the mind a sense of freedom with the birds singing etc, and im very keen on my wildlife too. Thank you very much for watching buddy, much appreciated 👍

Another cracking and informative video.... Cheers mate👍
You're welcome mate, thank you for watching 😁👍
@@DiggerDanMetalDetecting just to let you know when it's really wet conditions just swooping to m3 on your settings works a treat.... Especially when ground gets sparkey. Got some good finds cheers 👍
Great content Dan, very helpful tips. Maybe will help me find that damm hammered 🤣 wonderful finds 👍😀
Haha 😄 I really hope so mate 🤞🤞. You'll get one some day 👍.
Thank you for watching again mate
Congratulations on some spectacular finds from USA
Thank you very much mate, really appreciate it 👍 😀
what a much better video with great interesting information nice to see your using the LG30 as they are now coming back into stock lot of folk dont know they are 56g lighter than the standard coil and you can run them at a higher sensitivity and in depth air tests exactly the same on a range of different targets as the standard coil anyway one of your best videos and what a cracking lot of decent finds you had too well done
Thank you very much for watching and commenting mate, I really appreciate it 😁👍
Another brilliant vid mate that will help people out there for the setting brill coins ,ime on a rally this Saturday using lg30 and your settings, I've used them twice so far settings are brill, ile be on cultivated land ,look forward to your next vid 😀 👍 👌
Thank you buddy, I really appreciate that 😁👍. Best of luck to you this Saturday mate, I look forward to seeing all those hammered coins you find 🤞🤞🤞. Thank you for watching 👍
buying one used owning the old nokta simplex love the way these detectors are made good for an older person but like all detectors all do something good its up to the oparator
That a stunning rom9n that is brother
Thanks brother, wasn't expecting that one at all 😲. Thank you for watching mate 👍
Great vlog 👍
Good day Dan out one the field
Thank you very much mate 👍 😀
Brilliant video I'm new to the LEGEND well totally new to the addiction 😀. Great advice/tips 👍
Thanks mate, it certainly is as addiction lol 😆. Good luck with your new legend mate, if you need any help, just ask 😁👍
Great video thanks for your settings buddy
Thank you mate, you are very welcome 😁👍
Carnot wait to give them a try and you always seem to smash it let me come out with ya 😆😆😆😆
Great tutorial!
Thank you very much 😁👍
Thank you for posting and explaining this. I ordered one yesterday and it will be here tomorrow. I've detected since 1973. I had narrowed it down to a Legend, Tarsacci or Detech Striker. I hated my Minelab CTX 3030. Had it 3 years. I'm glad you didn't say Knock-ta. It's NO-k-ta, with a long O (as in Yes and No). I'm going to be using the Legend at my gold mine (private property) for coins and relics. I have Minelab 1000 and 7000 for gold, but they are worthless around all the iron and junk.
It would be interesting to hear how well the gold mode on the legend works on your gold mine 🤔.
It's is a very good machine for the money, and definitely holds its own against those more expensive machines 👌.
Thanks for watching mate 👍
Thanks for a great video. Got the legend from the start and I'm still learning. Just got the LG30 and all that small bibs was driving me crazy but that's the way it should be 😅👍🏻. Would never have dig that 15 (that hammered) but I will from now. Thanks. ❤
It should be a little bit more quiet than that when you use 0 ground balance. I hadn't noticed, but when I was going through those settings etc, I accidentally set ground tracking on the ground balance 😬. So when I was showing the sounds of the ground, it was actually a lot more chattery than usual because of that 🤦♂️.
Definitely dig those low numbers buddy, I usually dig anything that sounds good from 16 upward. That hammered was about 18, 19 but I've had a small piece of a king Stephen hammered come up at 14.
Thank you for watching mate 👍
This is one of the best instructional videos I have found for the Legend. I am new this machine, and have dug more iron in a couple of trips out with it than I have with any other machine I have owned before. I hope this helps me - especially the tip about a 'blurty' signal. With a machine that struggles to identify iron, why do you reduce the Iron filter value? I also find it difficult to tell the difference between the blurty iron (at 15:57) and to my ears, the blurty coin at 22:14. I will try your settings and see if the difference is more apparent when wearing headphones. Thanks.
Great video you gave the settings which is the most important thing to get how about a settings list for the Park setting with a search with this settings ferrous check 3

I love it😊
Thank you very much 😊
Great video and finds. New subscriber.
Thank you very much for subscribing mate, much appreciated 😁👍
Greetings, Thanks for the helpful settings :) Could you please also tell me which settings you use for playgrounds/bathing lakes and parks? Thank you 😊🙏
Great stuff, looking at getting legend, really helped 👍
Thank you buddy, glad the video helped. The legend is a great machine, and for the money, you can't go wrong.
If it helps, and you are in the UK? You could always give Dragon Detecting a call, speak to Jordan and mention Digger Dan. He will do you a great deal and give you 10% worth of freebies on top 👍
@@DiggerDanMetalDetecting yes, in Bedfordshire 👍
Just about to start out , I’ve secured two permissions, just need to buy a machine now!
@jasonwaller7321 that's awesome mate, you've go the hardest part out of the way 👌, well done 👏.
Give Jordan a call and he will talk you through what machine would best suit you. He's a genuinely nice guy and will be happy to help 👍
@@DiggerDanMetalDetecting I actually scored a worldy on Facebook market place yesterday , three month old Legend detector with just over an hours use for just over £300, nuts (had to drive one and a half hours to Solihull to get it, well worth it! Will be watching your instructional video a few more times soon! 👍👍👍
Hi nice video man! And thank you for your time and your settings. Can you say me your settings on the beach? Greetings
Will these settings also work for park mode?
I just sat for the first time stopping and started this video to go thru all the settings and menus you went thru. Im gonna do it a bunch more times to get more familiar with the settings.
Thanks so mu h for taking the time to do this for us.
Also, i already love this machine way more than the Garrett ATPRO I had.
These will work fine in park made, although there won't really be much of a difference as they are all customizable modes 👍.
Glad the video has helped you in some way. Thank you for watching 👍
Great video! I’m using the LG24 on pasture and really loving it and wanted to ask how you have found the LG30 on pasture? Tempted to get one as well to complete my coil ‘set’! Really like that Norwich farthing you found - found an Isaac Newton farthing with my LG24 and love tokens like that.
Thanks mate, I've not had chance to use it on pasture yet, but as it has the edge over the standard Coil, I think it will be very good on pasture.
Thank you very much for watching 😁👍
Серебро 👍
Thank you for watching 😁👍
I am planning to start detecting again after a 25 year break and have just bought one of these machines. I must say that it looks very complicated to the Arado that I used in the 90s which were simple but brilliant, the Arado screen consisted of ferrous and non ferrous, the Legend looks like a space ship compared to that. I just hope it doesn't take too long for me to get used to it as I am getting on a bit lol.
I think it looks more complicated than it is mate. I remember worrying about it when I was ready to upgrade from the simplex. Once you have learned your way through the menus, you will find it is quite simple really 👍👌.
Thank you for watching 😁
Just go out with some coins in your pocket and start from there. I just bought one as well after four detectors in my garage. I was like whoa, lots of stuff, it will take me a good 50 hours to find the sweet spot.
That looked like a dream day... Any one of those coins would make my day
Thank you mate, much appreciated. Good luck and happy hunting 😁👍🤞🤞
Absolutely cracking day Dan, thanks for the settings run through, I'm sticking with v1.09, I'll give 60 tones a try, lovely hammered and a whopper of a roman, plenty more on that field and pretty good for a wander about, take care fella. ATB Bill and Julie 👍😊❤
Thanks mate, there isn't much settings wise that are worth updating for, unless you need bottle cap rejection or you have really hot soil and need ground suppressor. But I would advise updating just for fact that they always make tweaks and improvements to the machine and its original settings which make the machine better in general 😁👍.
60 tone is brilliant once you let your ears tune into it. It's a little overwhelming to start with, but full of information on the targets once you know it 👍.
Thank you for watching guys, I really appreciate it 😁👍
Used the stubble set up with good results, found six coins, amongst them was my first Jeton - George iii 1788, well chuffed, thanks again, this was on the 1.11 update, have you altered anything since this? Cheers buddy
Great video Dan,I've been thinking about buying this machine after years of using the Xp detectors so i appreciate the run through of the Legend,quick question do u find the machine heavy,read were some people felt it was slightly coil heavy.
Thanks mate, it really is a brilliant machine, and for the money, unbeatable. Compared to the deus etc you are going to find it heavy. The new coils are a huge improvement on the balance of the machine, and I'm finding it much nicer to swing with the LG30 Coil 👌. I wouldn't say that it is an overly heavy machine though.
Thank you very much for watching mate 👍 😀
Really enjoyed that. Thank you. I’m waiting on delivery of my Leg-End and this was really helpful. Three great years and counting swinging The Nox. So I’m a little curious how I’ll get on with this machine.
Glad you enjoyed it mate 👍, if you need any other help at all, just ask 😉. I've not used the nox 800, but I know you will live the Legend. It is a great machine, you will definitely notice the better build quality 👌. Thank you very much for watching 😁👍
@@DiggerDanMetalDetecting Hi Dan thank you for the reply and the VERY kind offer of help and advice 😍 That video is so concise I think you nailed it but I’ll definitely keep that in mind 👍
I’ve only just discovered your Chanel but you have some great videos and some really wonderful finds. I look forward to seeing more of stuff in the future.
Thank you again mate and Happy Hunting
@Willy Ekk thank you mate, I appreciate you coming along 👍. Best of luck with you new Legend when it arrives, and I really look forward to seeing how you get on with it 😁👍
Enjoyed your video. I ordered one yesterday even though I know they will start making them soon with a different cuff, all composite shaft and LG30 coil instead of 28. How do you feel about the 28 coil? I just didn't want to wait. The Turkish rep said those who purchased the previous model (I'm getting) can order the LG30 coil and they will throw in the redesigned cuff and lighter shaft for free.
Thanks mate, the standard coin is still very good, but the LG30 has the upper hand, as it is better at separation and covers more area 👌.
It is a great deal for those who have the legend already, but not so great when, like me, people have already bought the machine and then bought the LG30 too. I think they should do a deal on the LG24 for those people 👍.
Thank you for watching 👍
Hi, new subscriber here. You tell us the numbers you have chosen, but not why. Could you please explain this so i know what i set mine at 😊
love you to say a value of coins on a dig.
Sorry mate, I've never been interested in the values, as I've never sold anything. Even if I wanted to, finding the true value of the coins would be very hard, as they are only ever worth what someone is willing to pay.
Thank you very much for watching 😁👍
@@DiggerDanMetalDetecting Thanks for taking the time to reply. Love your stuff.
Hey Dan I just noticed I only have two options in the secret menu ST and IF.
Have you updated to the latest software version 1.10? The other options came with this new update.
You can check your version by turning your machine on and looking at the top right of the start up screen 👍😁
@@DiggerDanMetalDetecting thanks bud I will check
Cheers Al
Hi,have you tried DT setting with that deep pasture program?
I haven't mate, I don't have the legend any more
💪💪💪
Thank you very much for watching 😁👍
When in a trashy area with alot of bottle caps, the sounds they make will be a nice sounding tone, but several more swings over it would reveal a grunt sound when the coil moves away from the target. To which I just ignore those cause it's more than likely to be a bottle cap. Coins and stuff like that at least in the US are crisp and don't have that grunt cause they don't contain iron in em. Pull tabs and beaver tails will always get you tho due it being all aluminum, if you want gold you dig those. It's simultaneously easier and difficult to identify targets in fields and parks than it is on beaches. Beaches has less stuff to dig and it's fairly straight forward what's a good sound or not, not to mention it's easier to dig provided you have the correct tools. Dirt is more compact and tough to dig so you'll be worn out quicker, but you have enough time to go over targets multiple times to hear if it's worth digging. Whereas on beaches the tide sometimes gets you if you're not fast enough. Also holes tend to pool on the beach if you dig too deep, so that makes it tough to dig in that aspect.
Sound like you are very in tune with your machine mate. Takes a lot of hours and patience to get to where you can tell the difference from a good signal and a bad one or just a slightly iffy one.
Thank you for watching and commenting mate 😁👍
@@DiggerDanMetalDetecting np, i've been at it for like 3-4 weeks only. Barely been to any parks and I dig everything at the beach that sounds good, so I still have alot to learn! People on the metal detecting forums taught me a ton!
❤❤
😁👍
How strange we had such similar finds (you copied me) 🤣🤣Lovely finds Dan, well done 👏
That's what I thought lol 😆. Thank you kirsty ❤️
Hi Dan, another great episode and great tutorial on the settings….as you use ground mode what’s the lowest number you dig? I only ever dig 12 and above at the moment
Many thank ms and keep up the great work!!
I find that 11 Is always hot rock/coke. 15 is usually foil, but as long as the tone is good, I will dig everything 14 and upwards 👍.
Thank you for watching buddy 😁👍
Awesome! Thanks Dan, love your videos…..yeh hot rocks 100% 11 I also find 45 is always aluminium/foil too. As you only dig 14 and above would you ever consider ‘C’ mode and just notch out 1-13?
Many thanks
Tom
The reason I choose G is because you won't find anything that low, but at the same time it quietens the machine down by knocking out ground noise. I'm not keen on the idea of notching anything out because I like to be able to hear everything in the ground, but the first 2 is OK. If you notch out 1 to 13, you will eliminate iron and therefore, you will not know when you've stumbled across a bust area where there has been activity. Best to keep your machine as wide open as you can mate 😁👍
Thank you Dan! Really appreciate the advice!
If ever you fancy a change of scene I have plenty of permissions in both Herefordshire and Worcestershire….just let me know 👌👍
What are the specifications of the new 12-inch search coil for the legend metal detector? What distinguishes this file from the previous file?
Not sure what you mean by file mate?, sorry. The new LG30 Coil is a 12" by 9.5" elliptical coil, it is very good at discrimination between targets because it is narrow, very good at picking targets out of iron infested ground, and also it is bigger, so covers more ground with each swing 👌.
It is a very worth while upgrade mate.

Thanks Dan, v helpful. Have you tried M3. Just wondering if that could be better than M2 ?
Thank you for watching mate 👍. M3 is for wet/ waterlogged ground. I have tried it, and is seems too quiet for my liking. Like it's dulled down compared to the others. M2 seems to be the best all round and I've had some great success with it 👍😁
@Digger Dan Metal Detecting first go with my Legend yesterday and all the sounds were a bit over whelming. Dug plenty of iron that didn't give a low grunt but learning.
I did try M3 and felt the same, at times I wondered if it was on!
Thinking of notching out 11 as this was consistently coke.
Thanks again mate, really helpful - love the style of video as rarely do you get the insight you gave.
@Paul Andrews I would suggest not notching anything other that the first 2 bars, which is discrimination pattern G. Coke is always 11, and I never dig it up ever. It's better to see those 11s come up and walk away from them, that way you get a better picture of what is in the ground. Coke is a sign of metal works and human activity, so good to know it is there 👍
How do you get the bottle cap rejection and ground suppression? I only have iron filter and stability, mine has the 1.09 update also
I believe those came with the 1.11v update 👍. You would need to update your machine.
what is the diference betwen the M1 and M2? I have also big coil, to get more depth , but dont know to use it in M1 or M2 mode. Thanks.
Different frequencies on each one. I believe m1 uses the lower frequencies, so will be better for depth and m2, higher frequencies, so better at picking out smaller items etc 👍
What brand of shovel are you using pls....I'm looking for something light, small , but strong
It's a black Ada Stainless Steel spartan 👍. I've had ot since I started and it still going strong 💪. You can use my code DIGGERD10 at Dragon Detecting for 10% discount

Round the outside, round the outside
Hahah 🤣 you are the first one to comment on that lol 😆.
Thank you for watching buddy, have a great weekend 🙌
Low scale of 11 is not gold or bronze?
I deal with lots of bronze coins here in Japan
Thanks...Love that Hammer 💖
Where I hunt, there are lots of hot rock/coke and they ring up at 11 every time, so I tend to ignore them. However I have noticed subtle differences in tones and dug some 11s and found small copper pieces etc. So I would say if they sound good, them dig them 👍
Would you ground balance on the beach?
Wat ya sayin Dan? I've got a legend delivered just yesterday. What do u class as mineralized ground? Some of my permissions are on a car stone outcrop but the rest are chalk and flint rich ground much your own fields. All the best
Mineralised ground is mostly full of iron and other magnetic minerals etc. You can usually tell if the ground is mineralised just from having the iron sound on and swinging over the soil. The machine will act very unstable and give lots of false signals. Unlikely to be the case here in the UK, but to overcome this, you can ground balance, use ground suppressor, and lower your sensitivity. Also try running the machine in discrimination pattern G.
Hope that helps
@@DiggerDanMetalDetecting yeh brilliant I've had a play with settings and am getting on fine with the machine. I found a 500 year old Nuremberg Jetton in my back garden on saterday. I've been over it a million times with my old detector so it is clearly a weapon! Cheers buh
👍
👌😀
That hammered coin with Edward on it can you tell what year it is
Being a kings Edward 1st coin it would make it anywhere between 1272 and 1307 😁👍
Is the LG30 coil better at targets than the stock LG28?
Yes it is much better at target separation, it really locks on to targets. Also it's better in iron infested areas, as it I narrower being 9" X 12". I highly recommend it.

Ok, my Legend arrived today, the instructions are difficult to understand, imo, lol. Could you illustrate exactly how you set up your Legend once you arrive on plot. Turn on the machine…..then…run through the exact routine you follow. How do I get to M2 mode? A generic, muscle memory protocol would be amazing for me, to start off with. Tia.
I could certainly go through my setup sequence on the next video for you. It's fairly simple once you have these settings saved. All I do is a noise cancel which is the first thing shown in this video. To change to M2, all you have to do is press the frequency button (bottom left) and it will cycle through them, press it until it changes to M2 👍
@@DiggerDanMetalDetecting. Early days, I used your M2 settings for my first go at detecting in my back garden. My lawn is pristine, imo lol, so was hesitant to dig it up but had to…I wish I could show you what I found. A silver or EPNS teaspoon minus its shaft, I’m not sure how old it is. That will be my downfall, that’s me hooked. Now to get some permissions from some land owners. Many thanks for you steer.
Can people from America come over to do some detecting in your area?
Hi Dan can you put up your deep settings please. I was out yesterday with a friend who was using deep settings on his dues 2. He got a signal but when I went over using your settings in this video the Legend couldn’t pick it up
My pasture settings are in the description below my videos mate 👍. The Lower your recovery speed, the deeper the machine will go, so play with that and the sensitivity. I like M2, but I think M1 may hit slightly deeper, being lower frequencies. Hope that helps mate 👍
@@DiggerDanMetalDetecting thanks Dan I will give it ago 👍
is the legend a better field detector than a mine lab 340?
I've not used a 340 mate, but the legend will keep up with all of the high end machines 🙌👌
Is it good in hot ground... like rail areas?
It is mate, and with the new coils, LG30 and LG24 it is very good. I would suggest that if it is very hot, I would use park mode and raise the recovery speed to 6 or 7.
Thanks for watching mate 👍
11 can be gold
Yes, I have heard of that, but think it more of the modern chains etc that are very small. I highly doubt I will find anything like that on my permission, and I would have to dig a few tone of coke before I ever find one.
Thank you for watching mate 👍
What is the song in your intro?
I get that a lot lol 😆. Its called "feel like that" by Nordgroove. Thanks for watching mate 👍 😀
I use park one on my simplex.
Is park on the legend like park 1
Or
Park2. On the simplex
The modes on the legend are very different to the simplex, but u guess it is still a coin and jewellery mode really. You can adjust everything in each mode on the legend and make them what you want 👍
@@DiggerDanMetalDetecting thank you very much. Love your videos.
Hi Dan how do I us my Preset Programme that I have made
Hi mate, on the settings, select the profile symbol (the little man). Then you can select between profiles 1 to 4. Just select the one you want and it will automatically save the setting you change for that profile 👍
Is the legend settings hard to use for complete beginner new to the hobby
It's can seem a little tricky at first and like me when I was upgrading to the legend, you are probably a little scared of the thought of having lots of settings to deal with. It's easy once you've gone through the settings a few times, and there is no better way to learn, than to get hands on. Plus I'm always here if you need help lol 😉.
The Legend would make a great first machine, and you wouldn't need to upgrade from it ever, as it has everything you could ever need 👍.
If it helps, you could also call Dragon Detecting and mention Digger Dan, and Jordan there will give you extra freebies you make up a 10% discount 👍. The number to call is 01792 687321 😁
@@DiggerDanMetalDetecting thanks much appreciated im in ireland
Stuck at first hurdle Dan. Cannot find discrimination pattern G 😢
Sorry mate, I didn't explain that one. If you press the horseshoe button it will go through the different patterns. G is ground off, C is custom, F is ferrous off, A is all metal mode 👍 hope that helps
@@DiggerDanMetalDetectingThanks mate I’ve been through and worked it out. The reason I didn’t at first is because it looks to be a 6 rather than a G lol
whats in your spray?
I use deionised water in my bottle 👍
Why 60 tones?
Because it gives you the machines full tones. If you can get your ears trained to them, you will get the most information possible from the ground and your machine. You get more information about a target from 60 tone than any of the others 👍
