Good video - each detector has different quirks and Vanquish and Equinox are similar in the way they can almost fool on ferrous - the almost great tone on ferrous is clearly shown here - great vid. (p.s. in the title - no apostrophe in cows)

Just got my 540 a couple days ago and was digging 90% trash to 10% coins, just this video helped me get that closer to 60/40 😂👍🏻 thank you!

Yeah I almost threw mine away lol always always a good signal and I would spend a very long time digging up trash. Great video

Great info new with the 549 this year thanks for your time doing this video.

As a newbie, this was VERY useful! I’ve got a 340 and the dual tones were really confusing me and was digging A LOT of iron compared to good stuff!! Great vid! Thank you!

Great video Shane!

GREAT vid well explained , that will help a lot of newbies

Very helpful 👍 thank you

I have used a no 800, AT pro and a 400i but since I got the vanquish I have never dug up so many nails and tent pegs it is a magnet for them.

Thanks man! I got my 540 about a month a go and I was on the same path too. I would recommend that you always kick on the iron to hear the quality of the tones as well. Great advice!

Great video Shane 🙌💥🤩 loving the tips ! Just got mine couple weeks ago my 540 ... I like the low iron bias so can hear if it’s iron ! 😆 it does like a “rustic” screw or nail lol 😂 awesome machine doesn’t pick up coke at beach so happy days for me ... my ace 250 made coke sound amazing 🤩 haha 😆

My 340 gives a constant clean tone and it's just a can of old food or something aluminum or deep iron does not pick up the iron in horse shoe

Just dig everything and enjoy this amazing hobby. Great advice though bud

Great vid. New to the V540. And making alot of the mistakes you've mentioned. Quite annoying. However not as annoying as that mode of filming. Was doin my head in.😂 But great tips. Thanks

Nice video but you need to take that screen protector off of that unit. It would be nice to actually see the screen as you're explaining things.

Thank you for doing that most people will tell you what not to dig but not proof it by digging

what exactly do you mean to see if its more than 50% iron tone? You mean go to all metal mode, then see if iron is more dominant over regular tones?

Great vid, can you do another video the same but with the good signals/finds? Cheers

Just bought mt first detector last week vanquish 540 spent 3 hrs on beach today digging junk mostly foil and iron, they are tricky to learn i hope i can identify whats good tones are soon, what settings for beach dry sand u reckon is best to eliminate trash and iron

Low tone iron Id + positive high tone = iron+rusty target
