Solution: Hunt in the NORMAL MODE, but use the
IRON DISC Mode to check targets to see if they’re
ferrous. Fortunately, there’s not much junk in nugget
country, and with practice you’ll be able to
recognize a lot of it. Nails, for example, will respond
with two beeps across the length of the nail (end
to end), but only one beep when the search coil is
swept at right angles to the length of the nail. Also,
most trash is shallow and comes in bigger sizes than
nuggets. Hence, it will sound different, especially
in the AUTO TUNE MODE. Trash will sound off over a
larger area of the coil, the tone will be louder and
the pitch will increase more, starting out at a low
beep and increasing to a loud signal.
5. Digging Tool: If you’re carrying a digging tool in
one hand, your Gold Bug-2 may sound off each
time you swing the coil beneath it.
Solution: Hold the digging tool behind your back
or up above your waist.
