the response to good conductors such as coins and fine jewelry . In Standard mode, the response to poor conductors can be eliminated effectively; however , if these objects are too close to the searchcoil, a detection response may occur . The response to good conductors, although somewhat diminished, remains relatively strong. Some jewelry such as ...

target discrimination. The background audio threshold remains at the chosen level until the searchcoil passes over targets in the knob's "accept" range, at which time a sharp audio response, a characteristic of all motion detectors, occurs. Figure 2 shows the typical detection responses from various metals in both Discrete (DIS) and ...
