Am I Given Free Metal Detectors?

Am I Given Free Metal Detectors? There's a very quick and simple answer to the question above - NO! I'm not given any free machines to shamelessly promote through my small and almost pointless YouTube channel. Unlike a lot of people out there I can't be purchased for any amount of money or free products. A little while back I made a video showing all the payments "I could find" that I'd made to Nexus metal detectors because I'd been accused by some very sad and pathetic individuals of being a Nexus shill. The above point can be demonstrated with all the machines that I use, it's really very simple, if I see a handmade analog detector that looks interesting I will purchase it, use it, make videos with it and write about it. Unfortunately due to social media we now live in a very pathetic universe where people will literally do and say anything if it means they can get free products, views and subscribers. These three elements mean absolutely fuck all to...

Identifying Coke With The Nexus Standard MP V3+

I've explained that everything that you need to metal detect efficiently is on all Nexus metal detectors and from the setting options to the coil position over "said target" you can identify everything. In an age where modern machines have a setting or a filter for literally everything and anything. There isn't a great deal left people actually have to think about, it's made detecting an automated nonthinking activity. Unfortunately the "art" of the hobby has fallen away, I have always looked upon detecting as an art and will continue to approach it in this manner.

Coke Can Be A Burden

When you look at the module on a Nexus it can leave you wondering how you identify certain objects such as coke, hot rocks etc. The whole approach of Nexus is producing a set of machines with literally zero filters, it's this that allows them to perform in the way that they do. People don't understand that filters are detrimental to overall performance, especially both depth and the correct discrimination at depth. 

Due to this, certain targets that you can discriminate out on some of the digital machines will come through on the Nexus. One material being coke, now lets remember that not all coke is the same, When I swing over it I usually get an inverted phase signal but sometimes it will come in locked central to the coil producing what can come as cross as a nonferrous target response. There are two distinct ways that I identify coke which will be explained in the short video below. I'm using the new V3+ but the basic principals I'm explaining can be adopted on all Nexus models.
