[QUOTE="Ben78, post: 145216, member: 206"] It is and it isn't, depends what you are looking for though. If you are looking for coins then the Conductivity is the more important reading. An item might read low conductivity but also low iron - dig it up because it could be a very deep threepence! The iron numbers don't read out nearly like you would expect in a typical single frequency VLF. Although a '32 32' reading on the explorer is 100% of the time a piece of iron. You might sometimes get a 15 30 for example that could well be a deep threepence. I nearly always just used the tones on mine and rarely the numbers, the graph gave a great indication if you are used to a screen but really in most situations a target that sounded nice on the explorer probably was nice.
