The more times that you cross over a target at different angles and times of day will help in validating a good target Figure 4 12 Temperature radio frequency transmitters solar energy ground mineralization clay salt water etc can interfere and cause erroneous conclusions Figure 4 11 Figure 4 12 Before you mark your location for excavation be sure to go over every target at least 4 times but it is recommend 6 or more times to be sure that you end up with the same or similar image over the location The finer the scan the horizontal and vertical position of the antenna automatic or manual modes are all contributing factors as to what image will appear on your screen For finer scans we recommend to lay out a grid string or chalk lines and scanning the suspect location several times in manual mode If the target moves from one area to another it may not be a real target When targets move it typically is mineralization Mineralization often fools the software Using the Double X ing technique you can rule out what is and what is not real Targets may vary attempt to isolate the cache to its closest points prior to considering excavation Remember to fill in all holes after recovery USA Double Magnum User Manual 4 19 2005 54 Section V Examples The following examples are a collection of actual targets from both our dedicated training facility and scans taken in the field This is an example of a 55 ga

10. 2D Measurement Mode works very well on both the larger scans and the smaller scans When analyzing a larger scan the differences for the most part are not as much as when doing a smaller scan The 2D mode will highlight stronger points and show more of the background in relationship to those points Figure 3 17 In this example Figure 3 17 of a larger scan the difference shown here does not clearly stand out by itself when looking at the whole picture By using this mode a tunnel or void stands out clearly The background of the image Figure 3 17 is the upper portion shown in the red and orange on this particular scan The larger your background area is on a rough scan the better Once an anomaly is detected it is important to mark that area and perform additional scans to narrow down and pinpoint the location of the target When making smaller scans around a target ensure that you are leaving enough room to see the background A common mistake that tech support sees quite regularly are scans that start in or just before the target An old saying says You cannot see the forest through the trees The same applies with analyzing data USA Double Magnum User Manual 4 19 2005 43 Nulling a High Signal Nulling a signal means to change the value of a high or low point on the scan to match the background Occasionally there are times when a scan point value 1s far too high or far too low when this happens then we need to null
