minelab equinox metal detecting tips and tricks
Improve your metal detecting skills with tips, tricks & techniques from Ed Huffman with Treasure Mountain Metal Detectors. Ed will be demonstrating one of his favorite metal detectors, the Minelab Equinox.
The true multi frequency technology in the minelab equinox makes this metal detector one of the best metal detectors that you can buy for under a $1000.
Ed will be demonstrating proper set up and settings for the Minelab Equinox, ground balancing techniques as well as Identifying targets before digging them! Ed is going to identify all targets before digging them in Real World Detecting Conditions! No Air tests - No freshly buried targets... just real world detecting conditions demonstrations!
On my Quest for Gold series I get a lot of questions about identifying targets because it's just so trashy to hunt in certain areas and if you use a certain amount of discrimination you're going to miss the good targets. This is just a basic set up that I use when I'm inland jewelry detecting aka urban gold mining and this is a great setup for whether you're hunting for gold jewelry or silver coins.
The reason it is one my favorites is that you can use it anywhere. It is one of the best metal detectors on the market for all-around metal detecting. Whether you're in the mountains hunting for relics or you're at a park or school or church hunting for coins and jewelry or on the beach or in the river or in a lake hunting for gold jewelry, you can use this metal detector anywhere.

Ed I recommend spending time on pinpointing skills to reduce target recovery time. I see many using new, powerful handheld pinpointers with features that are largely misunderstood and seldom used. Sensitivity for example, is usually adjustable and most seem to run wide open all the time. When you see someone struggle to recover a target in a hole, they’re usually using their pinpointer on high sensitivity and get numerous signals around the hole. It takes a split second to bump the sensitivity down and you can do it without removing the probe from the hole. Reducing sensitivity will allow you to find the target faster with smaller holes. Rule of thumb: the closer you get to the target, the lower the sensitivity should be to precisely locate it.

Absolutely love this!!! The pullback method we use to identify a bottlecap can also be used for the pulltab.. while running a side to side motion, pull back. If you notice a slight change in sound, it’s most likely a pulltab. Rings with stones are really jumpy from a 7-12/13 so make sure you follow JD’s last tip of turning the “All-Metal Mode” on!! If you are ever unsure about a target, DIG IT!! If you are new to this amazing machine. #equinox600 #equinox800 . Run 5 tones and dig everything!! Then, turn on 50 tones and start to notice the slight nuances of sound!! Great video brother!!! I’m Vermontderek!

Thanks for the video man. By the way.."iron bias" FE and F2 only run separately, one at a time.. so for example, if you set F2 at 2 last, your machine is running in F2 mode for your iron bias setting. You may have already figured this out by now, but thought I would let you know.. happy hunting and good luck. Stay blessed my friend.

Dude you are such a great teacher how you explain. I saw a video from derek in FL. Where he was detecting near some metal beach chairs and he paused how to discriminate the beach chairs and was able to detect without the detector picking up the chairs. I think he detected the chairs first to see what number it came in as then made adjustments so it wouldn't pick up the chairs. Do you have a video like that? You earned a new sub.

That was a impressive video. That info in the beginning about what each program is geared for is interesting. I will definitely have to do more research on the programs. I was always under the impression that park 1 and park 2 were exactly alike with differences of iron bias, recovery speed, etc that you could change to make it like the other program. I had no idea they were different in how the multi frequencies were geared. Great Video and I see I need to sit down and read a little more about my 800. Thanks for the video. If I could like it 5 times, I would.

@AdventuresWithEdHuffman 4 года назад
Thank you for the comment and I really do appreciate the support! Park 1 and Park 2 are very different... Park 1 is for medium to highly mineralized soil and weighted towards low frequencies ...

Good video Ed. As you can see I'm a new post within the last 6 months from your last post on this thread, meaning that this is a good archive information video for people who just purchased the Equinox. Still getting use to the shifting VDI's on this machine, and pretty much dig all good signals if you want to find gold. Used the AT Pro for three years with success in plenty of coin and silver with solid VDI's on targets but no gold. Bought the 800 because the PRO was horrible on salt water and black sand and already found gold twice on my first two hunts in a park...Luck? Maybe, but it already paid for the machine. :-) Thank again for the good video.

I have buyers remorse on some of my detectors, but not on the Equinox 600. Yes the shaft is flimsy (Detect-Ed solves that problem), yes the arm cuff seems like it is about to fall off, but I still love it. I love Field 2 mode. I hope in the future the price of the 6 inch coil comes down. $180 is too much. I thought FE and F2 were mutually exclusive (page 52 of the revised user manual)? Hopefully you can do an advanced one on the Equinox and focus on relic hunting in old iron. Thanks Ed!

@AdventuresWithEdHuffman 4 года назад
Thank you for the comment and I really do appreciate the support! Yes I agree with you! When you say mutually exclusive ... do you mean exclusive to the Equinox 600 or 800 or are you saying FE and F2 act the same? I will try to do the video in extreme iron soon!

@IffySignals 4 года назад
Correct Nick/Ed, if your in F2 your only using the values in F2. FE and F2 are completely separate. Its an additional Iron Bias. So when Ed put FE 2 and F2 2 and backed out it was only using F2 2. Whatever mode you are in when you back out is the mode you are using. Take care.

Ed, love your work on these videos. I have a question no one can answer for me ..... since you can run the iron sound down so low with the Equinox, why not just search with the horseshoe button on in all iron, instead of just checking with it? I would think hearing all the iron in the ground would be a bonus. Thanks in advance Ed.

Most of my gold rings with the Nox 800 all were 9's and dead solid in the ground. I spend most of my time hunting the 9 to 13 range. In my air testing of over 20 rings, 10k, 14k, 18k, mens, womens, small, medium, large, the full range is 7 to 16. I setup the machine Park 2 for 5 tones, then adjust the Advance Accept\Reject zones as follows. Z1 (iron) I run up to 8, Z2 9-13, Z3 14-21, Z4 22-30, Z5 31-up. Then in advance sound I turn Z1, Z3 down to zero. So you don't cancel out a notch, you just don't hear it while letting the detector do its job fully. This avoids all the noisy trash tones and you can focus on good target ranges. Yes, I know and accept I will miss some things but the time I save not digging trash more than makes up for it. I also refuse to dig zinc pennies (Z3 range) that are all janky, banks won't take them. Essentially I hunt gold, nickels and copper pennies and up. This a very effective means to hunt a park in my opinion.

@AdventuresWithEdHuffman 4 года назад
Thank you for the comment and I really do appreciate the support! Nice settings and strategy! A lot of people don't realize how difficult it is to hunt parks for gold jewelry .. however I can see you have a very good understanding of what it takes to be successful. Your basically narrowing down the odds to your favor by concentrating on your Z2.. that is a very effective method in Urban Gold Mining! You are missing some large gold however the majority of gold rings found in parks are going to be small to medium so you are definitely saving a lot of time by eliminating 14-21... because your right .. zincs can become very frustrating and overwhelming! Keep me updated on your finds! Send me pics of your finds this year to edhuffman@treasuremtndetectors.com
@haus6565
@haus6565 4 года назад
@@AdventuresWithEdHuffman I forgot to mention previously, I also adjust the tone in the Z2 9-13 up to a 21. Slightly lower than Z4 and Z5 where are 25. In a sense you stop on a high tone but have that slight variation. That is nothing more than a mind set for me.

Hi Ed. I liked the video, thanks. Not sure but thought that when you noise cancel the Nox you are supposed to do so holding it out in front of you vs keeping it on the ground?
@AdventuresWithEdHuffman
@AdventuresWithEdHuffman 4 года назад
Thank you for the comment! Yes ... actually in the manual it tells you to hold the coil away from the ground which works fine. I had experimented around with holding it away from the ground and on the ground. The detector seemed to run a little more stable (not so noisy) when I hold the coil to the ground during the noise cancel. I think it basically just comes down to preference or maybe even how strong the emi is different areas. Try both methods on your next hunt and let me know what you think?

Ed, why did you run both an “Iron Bias” of 2 then a F2 iron bias of zero, it is one or the other not both. Like your videos, you seem like you would be fun to hunt with.
@AdventuresWithEdHuffman
@AdventuresWithEdHuffman 4 года назад
Thank you for the comment and I really do appreciate the support! Yes you are correct one will cancel out the other... I wasn't aware of them cancelling each other out when I made the video. I really like to run F2 on 0 when searching for silver coins however when I am in the park looking for gold rings F2 goes up to 2 or 3 to get rid of those pesky bottle caps!

I new to all this so I have a question I just bought the equinox 800. How much better is the gold monster 1000 at finding gold or is it. I've watch a couple videos which makes it look like the gold monster is slightly better at gold. Btw great video

good video, I dug a solid 12 Wednesday that turned out to be a folded over pull tab. I have dug them as low as 9 and up to 18. guess the alloy makeup. depends on the site, sometimes those trashy targets are multiple targets sitting on each other but mostly trash. Only one way to know for sure LOL. Great job of showing tone variations etc.

I have to ask since it’s mentioned a lot in various metal detecting videos whether you have mineralized soil or not. Where the heck do you get that geological report to find out if the soil in your area or any thing within 20-25 miles is highly mineralized.
@AdventuresWithEdHuffman
@AdventuresWithEdHuffman 2 года назад
I mainly determine if the soil is mineralized by how high or low the detector ground balances at.... if it your detector ground balances at an extremely high number then your soil is highly mineralized!

Hi from the U.K, I get this a lot and its when you dig a hole and the item falls out of the side wall and into the bottom of the hole. The nox doesn't see it until you get it onto the surface for some reason.
