Discovery3 Metal Detector (630-3008) Features Faxback Doc. # 17722 Your Radio Shack Discovery3 Metal Detector is designed for versatility in all areas of metal detecting and treasure hunting. The Discovery3 lets you identify and locate precious metals with pinpoint accuracy. It can distinguish between different types of metals and "tune out" the ones you don't want to search for. You can use it to hunt for coins, relics, jewelry, silver or gold, just about anywhere-even near the ocean! The Discovery3's features include: Dual LCD Displays - displays the type of metal being detected and the depth reading at the same time. Ultra Slow Sweep VLF Discrimination - distinguishes between different metals efficiently, even when the detector is swung at slow speeds. Three Tone Audio Discrimination - sounds distinctive tones for different categories of metal objects to make target identification easier. Notch and Auto Notch - let you distinguish between junk and valuable metal objects, and automatically reject junk targets. OPTIONAL ACCESSORY The best coil to use depends on where and what you will be targeting when you are in the field. If you are looking for deeply-buried objects, a medium sized coil, such as the standard coil that came with your detector, is more efficient. If you are looking for tiny objects and coin-sized objects that are not buried too deeply, a 4-inch coil might work better. The Discovery 4-Inch Coil System (Radio Shack Cat. No 63-3009) is highly sensitive and offers superior performance when hunting for small objects (such as gold nuggets or small pieces of jewelry), or in mineralized or highly trashed areas. Because of its smaller size, the 4-inch coil has a narrower detection field and is less susceptible to interference from trash items. This makes it better able to isolate precious metals in trashy areas. (JC/all-11/02/95)
