Thanks Simon! And congratulations on the new machine!! It is a BELTER! Happy hunting 😊😎👍

Very nice overview, Adam! Thanks!

Watching and learning 😌

Just got my legend and this was fantastic and easy to follow. Cheers

Great video again, thanks. I got to grips with the Simplex a while back through your video on it, setting up the legend for the first time now and knew where to look. Really helpful 👌

Very good and easy to follow, will recommend people to watch if they have questions on the Legend.

Great video. Legend arriving tomorrow, so will be watching the video again. Many thanks.

Excellent video, thank you

Very helpful. Tks

Thank you for this video, watched 20 different ones, but this one gave me things how I needed them, very simple and to the point. Just got my detector yesterday, tomorrow, I will hit the beach running, thank you again

Thanks Adam, just upgraded from the Simplex and found this introduction very helpful 🙂

I ordered mine last night so this video, well, it was just perfect. Cheers

Thank you for this! I've been trying to figure out all of the set up and what goes where!

Thank you this very good video!!!

As always, another great tutorial Adam. As you know I haven't got this machine but am very impressed (as always) with Nokta's build and functionality - seems to be doing really well for most detectorists! I've just joined the LP affiliate scheme so am looking forward to promoting them on the vids. Hope all is well & see you at Detectival!

Great video. I got a new Legend and only just started using it because the manual was so daunting. I watched two videos to help with all these settings that ware available. It seems a very capable machine and finds targets that are really deeper than I want to dig in a park! A couple of days ago I gave up at 9" down, as I suspected it was junk on the left side ferro check.

Just received my Legend yesterday! Great tutorial!!!! Have a great day!!!!!

@@sagemajka4871 I’ve done 70 hours in the Legend now, I loved my nox and it found me loads . However I definitely prefer the Legend , even the new equinox 700/900 are adding features that the legend has so it must be doing something right . I do 90 percent beach detecting and it’s super stable and very quiet on the wet , build quality is better , the features of the legend are better , performance wise I’d say they are very close but again the Legend just pips it , I have paid for my machine from the beach in cash and gold , 3 lots of gold in 3 trips , countless rings . I don’t see myself changing from it anytime soon, I don’t have any bad things to say at all about it , I bought the pulsedive pin pointer and that is the only thing I’m not impressed with , it wasn’t cheap too, the sensitivity isn’t as good as their orange pointer which is a bit cheaper . For the money it’s a cracking machine and you absolutely won’t be disappointed.

Can't wait,I have the new generation legend, with lk30 coil on its way to me as we speak. I was using a garrett atpro but found it to difficult to use especially in the pro settings. And honestly, I probably would never figure all those settings and tricks out. I was looking at the simplex, but was lucky enough to afford the legend. I'm trying to watch a lot of videos on the legend to have some idea of what all it does. I'll check out your other videos. Thanks

In that case, contact the Nokta service centre for your region. They'll be able to do some more in-depth troubleshooting with you and figure out the problem. If it's faulty they'll be able to get it replaced quickly. Nokta's aftercare is the best in the business. You'll be well looked after 😊👍

Hi Adam, It was good to meet you at the Nokta stand at Detectival on Saturday. You showed me the kit you use to record videos - harness and microphone - please can you share the make and model numbers? Your videos are top quality. Thanks, Neil (Oxfordshire)

Hi Neil, It was nice meeting you. It's not often I get asked about the recordings equipment! The harness isn't branded. If you search for "mobile phone chest harness" on Amazon it's just the generic one that comes up. Roughly £12 from memory. The mic I use is the Rode SmartLav, although that's probably overkill really. Any Lavalier mic with a wind muff on will do the job fine 😊👍

Nice one Adam. Is your normal preference to go for settings circa IF 6 and IS 4?

@DTEKTSUSSEX

2 жыл бұрын

Honestly I tend to keep the IF at 8 unless I know I'm in an iron-infested area. If it's lightly iron-peppered I'll probably drop to 5 or 6 and if it's heavy down to 3 or 4. It's still a relatively new feature so still some learning curve to travel with it until I'm 100% confident. It certainly performs well, though!

Does lowering the IF setting decrease the depth of the machine? I was under the impression that less filtering increased the depth. Much like all metal mode. Thanks for the great videos.

@DTEKTSUSSEX

Hi Curtis, In short, yes. You're lowering the value on the screen but that increases the iron filtering. Bit too complicated to explain easily here and I appreciate it seems counterintuitive but it does make sense 🙂👍

Hi John! The Legend is easily the better detector between the two. It's really a couple of tiers above at least. It's simple to use and navigate but you need to be prepared for a learning curve. It's not a 'turn-on-and-go' machine like the Simplex, for example. If you're happy to read the manual a couple of times and be patient with it (feel free to ask me anything!), then the Legend will be an amazing machine for you 😊👍

I got a good deal the other day and saved enough to upgrade to the pro kit bits but is it worth getting the extra battery and 6inch coil?

@DTEKTSUSSEX

Жыл бұрын

That depends very much on your detecting intentions. If you're going out for 6-8 hours or less, the internal battery should be fine. If you're going away for weekends or don't want to charge the machine after each use, the external battery is really handy. The LG15 coil is brilliant at getting into small places, around stubble etc. It's also good on parks and beaches but the coverage is minimal. If you decide the Pro Pack isn't for you, take a look at one of the bigger aftermarket coils as an alternative 😀

Hi Geoff! The machine will retain the last used settings until your next hunt...as long as the battery doesn't drain completely or a factory reset isn't performed. The coil has no impact on this at all. You can also set up to 4 user profiles with specific settings and choose between them if you wish. Hope that helps! Happy hunting!

Hi Donald, Sorry to hear you're having trouble. A 'CC' error relates to the coil connection. Check the connector for debris or damage and re-attach, making sure to press it in, tighten the collar, press it in further and so on until it's fully engaged.

They won't. Coils are calibrated for the specific machine and The Legend is an SMF whereas the Simplex is single frequency. The Legend used Bluetooth (better) whereas the Simplex uses 'Wireless' (WIFI) to connect. You do get the headphones with every version of The Legend though so that won't matter 😊 The charging/update cable is the same, though 👍

Hi. I'm having a lot of falsing/chattering problems with my Legend. I have uploaded 1.09 3 times, as I've heard that if it's uploaded 2 or 3 times the falsing/chattering is eliminated. Unfortunately it hasn't worked, It's pretty silent in M3 mode, but it's driving me mad in M1 and M2. I've made so many adjustments in IF/ST/Recovery/Sensitivity etc, I've lost track. Can anyone help please. Thanks.

Hi! That could be an issue with the coil connection but is more likely just a settings thing. Make sure your coil connector is secure and the cable is against the shaft all the way up.
