Sorry Im late to answering this question. I'm generally running in Jewelry or Relic mode with the sensitivity as high as possible and the iron volume at 1-2. MF or 15 khz works well for me. I really like the smaller Ripper coil and use it most often. The new update does seem to have calmed the chattiness and the ID doesn't jump as much. I have to admit so far this spring the detecting has taken a back seat to chasing crappie and bass in my kayak. Thats going to change pretty soon though with the wake boats and jet skis starting to show up.
