Hi, my name is Merrill Kazanjian. New York City is an amazing place to go metal detecting. We have lots of parks, colonial history and great beaches for beach detecting. I have gone to all five boroughs of New York City To Metal Detect and beyond. I also currently own 16 metal detectors. I want to have the best and I want to help you choose the best as well. Below I will showcase some of the playlists on this channel:

Your about 5 months ahead of me, I had the simplex for 2 months and the legend for 1 month, also in ontario (simcoe county), I found some good stuff at the local ribfest grounds, so if you have one of those in your place of residence I suggest hitting it up The legend is nice, but I need to update mine its running an old version of software, but I dont have a windows computer to update it,my computer runs Linux I dont drive but I could take lynx transit across simcoe county, I plan to hit the beach at waubashene soon as the bus stops a 5 minute walk from the beach there I also bought a off brand ebike, but I dont trust it to go to far and not run out of battery Found anything nice with the legend since you made this post?

I have found that when the vdi is all over the chart on a particular target that I can change over to a single frequency to cross check it and usually the single frequency will tighten the vdi number down to within plus or minus 5

Son of a gun Merrill, I cant imagine how much editing you did for that video! What an excellent resource for referencing and putting things into perspective when it comes to the LEGENDS VDI SCALE. I think I feel alot better about the ever changing #s now. I don't have an EQ 800 and I hear the EQ800 does a fantastic job at eliminating bottle caps or should I say a better job at digging less crowns. If the legend is the 800s competition, then I can expect to see more improvements in the bottlecap arena, thanks again! And a special shout-out to your kids from the MiningMonkey in California.

I hope that you can perhaps run out to Jones Beach or Coney Island.... and do a beach test too. Video is great, informative, not a lot of BS in between (started to watch another video doing a comparison and couldn't get past 1 minute... yours kept my attention (very hard to do with an ADD person)) , and very well thought out and put together... Yay team! I'm definitely getting the book. Thank you.

Every metal detector sends magnetic frequencies in the ground , and when it hits metals it creates eddy currents , so it measures signal timing from coil to controls , iron has a slower transfer rate than silver , gold has a slower transfer rate than higher conductive metals, when the eddy current hits a ear ring that's not a closed loop or a ring that is cracked and not a closed loop , the eddy currents gets distorted, that's why it's tricky pulling them , 360 degree scan helps, you explained alot thanks for showing the vdi's scale on the legend, very cool.

Thanks for the great video. Hardest thing for me is going from my makro racer 2, nokta fors relic, and simplex lite (1-99) scale to the legend (1-60) scale. To start im just adding 40 to the legend to get an idea. I know its not perfect because of the programming but also like all should with a new detector to them is dig everything thays not a grunt tone and learn yourself for your soil

New detectorist, 71 year old veteran just outside of Chicago, bought the Legend heavily based on your comments, the concern the company has for providing a quality product and their reacting to legitimate customer concerns. I will be going detecting with a fellow 74 year old veteran so he can provide cover fire while detecting the Chicago beaches, just kidding about the cover fire, I will have body armor. OK not funny. We are considering matching Grumpy Old Men hats and T-shirts. As a fellow Mexican Pizza aficionado I was at Taco Bell yesterday and when I asked for a Mexican Pizza I was told they would be available again May 10th 2022!!! I have learned a lot about detecting from all your past videos but the light hearted tone seems subdued lately. It’s none of my business but I hope all is well with you and yours. Thanks for all the great info and laughs! The laughs are what separate your videos from the pack. That and you usually don’t dig holes the size of a Volkswagen to get to the target. Your helpers are also top shelf people. I did buy the target ID bible and it has also has a plethora of helpful info.

After seeing this I thought to myself aren’t musket balls made of lead? So I took a magnet to mine and it stuck like glue. Further research lead to thinking of two different possibilities, maybe it’s either a meteorite or what was called iron cannon shot. What do you think? Have you tried a magnet on yours yet?

I was reading up on Minelab MF machines and they use an advanced method to get TIDs using MF. My Nox 800 easily grabs stable TIDs but my Deus1 struggles. My opinion the Nox is very good at getting stable TIDs I cannot say anything about the D2 yet but maybe TID performance is one for a video. Also my D1 menu has settings that interact with other settings but the Nox settings are independent. Nox- easy to set up complicated programs - D1 complicated to set up simple programs. The D2 has a similar menu. And I suspect I can set programs on the Nox I cannot do on the Deus machines. However I will have a another try of a D2 because we all want to have a selection of great detectors👍👍

Didn’t you find that with the Legend there is a dig difference between an object in the ground vs dug up? Or is that something they fixed?

@MetalDetectingNYC Жыл бұрын

Great topic for a video. We will dig in to that.

What about coins that are being MASKED by bottle caps, foil or can slaw affect the target ID? How well does the Legend handle that?

From my experience the VDI will vary in the soil from air test

I just commented on another video but I want to pull the trigger on this detector the legend " new generation " I just want to be sure about the machine before I drop 600 on it

Purchased a legend after going to your website. Also others input too. First half hour found a chunk of cast iron and a dime. Thanks for your videos.

Are the target id's the same through all the manufacturers Or is each company different. With that is target I'd the same For the makers or are they different for every model ? Thank's for your time

The rules apply for conductivity. Silver is most conductive will always be at the top and iron at the bottom. But Minelab equinox scale is from negative numbers to 40. The XP Deus is to 99. So it’s like cutting a pizza in 4 vs 8 slices

In Deus 1 you also have a NORM ID setting that shows you the same TID whatever frequency you use because, normally, you get a different TID for the same object in different frequencies

Are the test bin done out in the field, or at home in the hand test,

@MetalDetectingNYC 2 жыл бұрын

Hand test. No interest in re-burying over 600 items. I assume that what you are going to say next is that the test is worthless. It’s not. Target ID can be affected by depth of an object (far away from coil) and the targets in proximity, but you will NOT get much of a difference if any between an air test and a reading in the ground.

Why do they make the vdi numbers so different from the Simplex? Any good answer?

@MetalDetectingNYC 2 жыл бұрын

If anything these tests prove to dig everything. I would imagine there is a lot of programming that is involved to assign sounds with numbers and calibrating conductivity to numbers and it might save costs. That answer is speculation though.

The thought of not having many places detect without breaking the law is scaring me away.

It took me a while to get comfortable with a metal detector in my hands in public. But im GLAD I did. My suggestion is find a friend to go through the learning curve with you. I did it alone for a while but its better with friends. Start by asking for permission to a place that you are comfortable. Look up the local rules for permits. If all else fails wait for the winter and do the woods.
