    Have enjoyed your podcasts.I am a 10 year veteran MD'er.However I am always confused on sensitivity range on my Fisher CZ-5.I guess what I am getting at is,could you do a show on Disc and Sensitivity?

    Hi Kevin,

    I use the CZ-5, too, and I set my sensitivity to maximum and try to ignore all the false signals. It it gets too crazy, I back the sensitivity a bit.

    By false signals, I mean those that don't give a good beep in all four directions (left, right, frontward, backward).

    One great thing about the CZ-5 is that you don't lose any depth when you increase the discrimination. With most detectors, it's a tradeoff: more disc, less depth.

    Hope that helps!

    Let me try that first paragraph-second sentence again:

    If it gets too crazy, I back the sensitivity down a bit.
