High Yield VS. General VID

Jay Gold Mon May 25, 2015 7:58 pm

Gday Ladies and Gents,

Here is a good example of the target response using High Yield and General on a large, un-dug, deep gold nugget. I picked it up in High Yield and heard a faint dip in the threshold, then switching to general you can really hear a noticeable difference. Even over a few inches of sticks the GPZ still picked it up. Pretty impressive really. I got pretty excited as it was sounding like quite a sizeable piece. Still very happy regardless. Hope you get something out if it.

Cheers.

g'day jordan, i see you are still pulling good sized nugs, good on you.

it was a good example of the response of high yield and general, thanks, well done ... kev

Nice nugget!!!
Good demonstration of the different signal strength on the different modes, what smoothing were you using?

Cheers Kev, have you been having such success with your previously mentioned settings? When i get my zed back form the doctors I'm going to try them again.

Gday Lee,

Cheers for that, hope it gave a little insight on the different gold modes. I used 'audio smoothing' OFF throughout that dig. In fact, i always have it off. Very Happy

Cheers.

Great piece of gold that everyone would be rapt with, and good camera angles and audio. Off topic from gold, but what were you using as a camera and to support it to get such good coverage?

Nice gold your getting Jordan,
Your machine is running exceptionally well with smoothing off, think ya got a goodie there!
Just wondering what sort of booster your using it sounds real solid!
Thanks for sharing. Hope you find heaps more.

Cheers
Chris

G'day Jay

What you'v witnessed there is quite normal on many a solid slug of gold,when in the "General" gold mode setting.Just make sure it is not treated as the norm on/for all size/type nuggets.I'v already witnessed two nuggets of the same weight,(2.5gms each) but of different size/shape,where the "General" Gold Mode gave 30% less depth,than when in the "High Yield" gold mode. It has become apparent that each gold mode,is not only designed for greater depth as nugget/specimen gold gets bigger/larger in size,but also play a significant role towards maximum detection,for the type of gold in question.

Cheers guys, Kon. T25

Gday Chris, I don't use a booster. I actually use the headphones plugged straight in to the GPZ and pull out the WM12 when i film a dig so we can hear the audio. cheers.

Gday Con, thanks for that info, very insightful indeed. Makes sense really, and just reiterates the fact that you have to go over the same ground numerous times with different settings and there is no "perfect setting." Imagine when new coils are released!!

I found a 13 gram solid nugget @20 inches a few days ago. found in high yield switched into general and it diminished by about 30%.
The next day In the same area I found a 26 gram solid @ 18 inches and the response was the same between the two.
Happy but a little confused.

Hi Steve
Did you try either target in extra deep as a comparison?

kon61 Wed May 27, 2015 12:46 pm

Don't be surprized nor confused Steve,for its just in the nature of what/how each gold timing does/works on different size/shape/composition of nuggets.
I also know,that there are many GPZ Investors here and overseas screaming for a smaller,more workable/maneuverable type coil,over narrow tight places.This is quite understandable but,a smaller coil than that of the GPZs 14x13 would have to be wound to the sensitivity of the 14x13,for as we all know,any more sensitive than the 14x13 and we'd be chasing not only phantom ground noise signals,but flower gold in between. Laughing

As for a much larger coil,for the possible multi-ouncer at great depth,yep,I'll go for that,as long as they can keep the weight down to an absolute minimum,for I just can't see to many out there swinging them,if their weight exceeds the 2kg+. Mind you,not that I'll be complaining,for the less users of large coils out there the better,but neither do I want to qualify,as the next bell ringer of Notre Dame,a few years down the track either.

Cheers guys, Kon.

I don't care how much the big coil will weigh!
I WOULD SWING AN ANVIL if it would find me more gold!!!!!!
I just want it BIG like 20in or bigger I want the full potential of ZVT unleashed by giving me a big coil.
Smaller than 20 just wont cut it for the big coil!!!!!!

For the small coil I recon 11in would be small enough, or say 12x10in would be good.
Why would you need to go smaller?

Hang on in there Goldhound. I'm quite sure Minelabs working to satisfy the masses demand as we speak. Interesting times ahead indeed. cheers

Cheers Kon. What a Face

No, I was too keen to get the gold out after trying the first two timmings.

Cheers Kon.

I'm sure they are!
That's what worries me as there are a lot of whingers whinging about the weight!
And asking for various small coil's.
I don't think its heavy at all and have never even thought about the bungee.
Even though I have one injured hand/arm and have to swing and dig with the one arm I never felt I needed the bungee.
I just want the big coil regardless, I don't care if it weighs as much as an anvil as long as it finds me that deep gold that I know is just out of reach in some places!
