today i'm out with the xp ORX with the hf
coil now this is a part 2 video really
because
the part 1 is over on the xp
youtube channel let me quickly explain
this is a really really quiet field and
in part 1
we went out with the xp Deus and we made
some adjustments
to try and make this field a little bit
more livelier
and we got a couple of coins nothing
exciting but we
certainly changed the dynamics of the
machine
so i've had a few questions i've had a
few emails saying
well can you do the same with the orx
what's the orx going to work like
on that field
i'm gonna start using the coin
fast mode and just let you hear how
quiet this field is my plan is to move
on to the coin deep mode just like we
did with the xp
deus and then make some adjustments as
we go
now there's a couple of things i want to
talk about regarding some settings and
i'll get there in a moment
so okay let's turn the orx on go straight
into the coin
fast mode as you can see there 14
kilohertz exactly the same as what we
were using on the xp deus
and let's have a little walk and i'll
let you hear what the machine
sounds like
and you can see there - that's where i dug
one of the coins
on the deus video so i'm on exactly the
same spot
coin fast no adjustments
there's absolutely no feedback coming
from the machine
at all in the coin fast mode exactly the
same
as the previous video
so what did we do first of all we went
up to sensitivity
99 on the dues so let's try and
replicate that sensitivity
99 on the orx
once again a little bit of emi coming in
nothing to worry about let's get going
just got the odd pop the odd spit
iron...
that pretty much replicates the deus in
deus fast mode
using sensitivity of 99
it's still a little bit quiet we want to
try and get the machine
on its limit so once again we need to
change the program and we're going to go
into the
deep program so here we go the deep
program press the hashtag
key and we're straight into the coin
deep program
and it's sensitivity at 90 - frequency
14 - iron volume on
reactivity 2
once again the same as the deus i'm
gonna go up to reactivity 3
discrimination 7 i'm not going to
bother touching that
and there we are sensitivity exactly the
same
as the deep mode we used on the Deus
the deep mode with the sensitivity at 90
let's see how it differs from the coin
fast mode with sensitivity at 99.
so here we go then coin deep
sensitivity at 90
where are we gonna go from here so
perhaps we can introduce
a little bit more sensitivity just like
we did with the Deus on our previous
videos
sensitivity in 95. here we go then
sens at the 95 deep program
on a quiet field
absolutely wonderful getting a little
bit of feedback coming through
just right
now going back to this reactivity thing
okay
people say why don't you use reactivity
1 for more depth
let's give it a try
if you want to run your machine like
that be my guest but for me
it's a big no - I like to use the higher
reactivities
right let's go up to 2 see what
difference it makes
reactivity 2
still not feeling the love there it's
still a little bit too unsettled for me
reactivity 2.5 now this is a pretty good
all-rounder
but as i said before not for me in
stubble
2.5
we're just going over that spot where i
found the coin the other day
2.5 still too high as far as i'm
concerned
okay now i'm going to reactivity 3
3 which is the maximum on the orx
well as you can see now the machine
is much more usable
i think what the lower reactivity does
it makes the signals bigger but it also
makes
the false signals bigger and the ground
feedback bigger
once again i think that's a bit of
horrible iron
what we want here is a nice clear signal
or as clear as we can get it
dont forget the deeper signals will have a
little bit of an iron buzz with them
got an interesting one here
coming up 70s
72 on the screen there
82
71 so the numbers are pretty consistent
if you try to locate a target you can
also use the back edge of the coil there
like this
and that'll get the exact spot
here we go
it's a piece of lead
okay i know it's a piece of lead it's
pretty much junk
but you've got to remember here we are
searching on a very quiet field
and i suspect a lot of you guys out
there watching this video
have got quiet fields we're not all
detecting
in the grounds of a museum so to speak
if you're on a roman site well that's an
open goal you can do what you want
it's these fields which are difficult
perhaps you've only got permission for
quiet fields
and this video may help you just get
that little bit more out of your metal detector
but like i say we're not all detecting
in the grounds of a museum
some people have got fantastic sites
and they just can't put a foot wrong
every signal is a coconut
but sadly with us we're on these fields we've got
to make the best of them what we can
well i think we finally got our perfect
setting for this field
coin deep sensitivity 95
reactivity 3. i'm not going to mess
around with frequencies today
i'm going to just leave it on 14
kilohertz but
i'm really happy with the way this
machine's giving me a little bit of
feedback....Thats Iron
here's a little iron tip for you
steady number 86
87 a big belting signal
but if you draw the coil back while
sweeping
oh it seriously turns to iron
right back here look
i know that could be anything guys it
really could but
in this instance i'm not gonna dig it i
think that's
iron it's reluctant to give a number up
it's got a bit of a soft sound to it a
bit ghosty though isn't it
as soon as i put the camera near it
it starts to get a bit irony so the
machine is actually
picking up the camera
bear that in mind guys quite stony
that's better
nothing on the probe
definitely
see even even moving the camera a few
inches away
has tidied that signal
here we go
it's round
it's just a little round button but a
nice signal wasn't it that's interesting
a couple of buttons
as you can see i've walked from right
over there and these are my first two
signals
in this distance so this field is by no
means
productive it is a very very quiet field
in fact
it's a pretty depressing field but i'm
sure lots of you out there can feel my pain
double bleeper that's not very deep
you know notice the numbers are all
staying about the same they're all
grouping around the 80s that's always a
good sign
if the numbers were jumping 80 - 60 -
20 - 12 sort of jumping around
being inconsistent that is quite often
misshaped iron but the fact that these
numbers are all hovering around the 80s
there's a bit of consistency
is really encouraging certainly not deep
because
we got the double bleeping coming in
there
coin no
square
oh there you go
nice bit of a buckle there there you
have it a buckle
it's not a coin but it's an artifact
i'll take that any day of the week
this coin deep mode on this field
sensitivity 95
reactivity 3 is just about on its
limits it's not unstable it's very
usable
i don't think i can get any better than
this
no numbers on that one oh 71 look just
come up
let's go to coin fast give that a try
coin fast
once again a little bit softer
not as forced
coin deep i wonder what the higher
frequency will do 54
too high 31 kilohertz
nice and clean on 30 - 34 kilohertz
31 kilohertz i should say
54 kilohertz
not a lot of difference there
another button perhaps
no i think that
is a coin well we finished on a coin
thank god for that  - well guys
that was a tough one i'm sorry i didn't
find you anything really nice i think
that little coin was a roman by the way
but i'm sure you'll appreciate that my
videos are more about the technical side
rather than the treasure side of things
but we got the orx rocking and rolling
out there using that coin deep program
sensitivity 95 reactivity 3
that worked really well so why don't you
go out there and give it a try
you might have a little bit more luck
than i have out there
but the crazy thing is out there i've
found loads of
small non-ferrous targets but i haven't
found any big targets
what's that all about ! do you think
they've all been found i very much doubt it
so that's it like i say once again sorry
i haven't found anything decent but
that's metal detecting for you you just
don't know
but hopefully now the crops are
coming off we can get on some better
fields and perhaps make some more
interesting videos but
like i say the technical side of things
is what i concentrate on
now if you go over to the xp channel
you'll see
me on that same field using the xp
dues and just tweaking it to get the
best out of it
and just like this the deep program was
the best program to use
sensitivity 95 reactivity 3 so
the orx and the deus kind of mimic
each other on power i've got no doubts
about that whatsoever
the only difference is the deus you can
fine tune the audio
to how you want it for example full
tones 2 tones things like that whereas
the orx is 3 tones and that's it
but i've had a great day once again if
i'd have spent all day out there i might
have found something decent it's really
time over meters isn't it and if your
fields are like that
i feel your pain god help you but
it's always the way isn't it you've got
lovely looking fields you know there
should be something on there
but you just can't connect with it on
the day but who knows the turn of a plough
and it might be a different field
altogether
so that's enough of my waffling thank
you so much for watching i really
appreciate it
Don't forget to subscribe like post a
comment below let me know your thoughts
have you had a quiet field
and you spent time on it and it's turned
out to be a good field
have you've got a great story about that
i'd love to hear it
guys i've said enough hopefully see you
on the field again soon bye for now
