There's a bunch of stuff already out there on the forums and in videos. But I would like to know what you all think about it.

Do you avoid really junky areas or welcome the challenge? welcome it

How bad is iron/target masking really? Significant

What type or detector do you prefer in these areas-Beep and Dig or target ID? Target ID and audio ID

How important is coil size? Has shown important to me

Do you use iron audio if your machine has it? Yes

Do you like a detector that blends the audio or just gives a solid individual beep on close targets? 50 tones

How important is target ID with target/iron masking? i find it very important for clues of masking

How important is audio with target/iron masking? Extremely important, primary clues to stop and investigate further

If you could only have one metal detector for these types of sites what would it be and what coil would you use? Equinox 800, 11" coil

I know that's a lot to answer, go over it in your minds and take some time to answer each question if you can. I've got my own ideas and have really been putting all my metal detectors through different challenges the last few weeks. I'll give my opinion and may even do some video later. You might be surprised at what I pick.
