    Depth modification of detector circuit boards.

    Wow, what an interesting read that was. Thankyou for this informative reply. For anyone interested in my thinking process on my first post.. I am in the UK, in Suffolk. There are fields around the Sizewell power station that are baron of anything including Iron. Very unusual in the UK. The...

    How is the DeepTech Vista compare

    I had 2 Vista gold gains a smart plus. The smart plus was much more sensitive. It found a 35mm Kodak film cartridge the gold gain could not see. Both were fast to recover in UK iron infested sites such as Roman towns. My brand new gold gain was faulty from new, it went mad regularly and...

    Find memories of my 1266 back in the day

    I used to think my 1266x was the deepest thing out there in the 1990's. With it's 10 inch coil. I recently purchased one with the standard coil and could not believe it had 50% less air test than the Deeptech I was using at the time. So I sold it to another guy who thought the same as me back...

    ML ProFind 35 review

    I have the 35 and it's saved me lots of digging UK Iron. It's not that deep so I use a cheap Chinese pointer to get me on the target and use the 35 to see if it's iron. One thing though it regularly goes nuts and needs powering off and on. On YouTube ot says that you should turn it on...

    Who uses their wired headphones with the Equinox or Manticore detectors?

    I used wired headphones directly into the nox800 unit for a few weeks as i was having connection issues with the wireless headphones. I think going direct I heard better clearer signals(I read the wireless headphones are not the best for detector use, I think they are re badged sony). I have...

    Any difference between the regular 1266x and 1266x XB ?

    I think the XB stem has an extra connection to break down the stem more to fit in a case? Perhaps Google images will show i am sure I used to have a charger that came with the detector and it plugged in there. I used a massive battery attached to my waist belt to keep at full voltage for long...

    My Deeptech experiences

    I had 3 deeptechs during COVID A brand new Vista Gold Gain A used Vista Gold Gain A used Smart pro(not plus) I loved the recovery and the fact I could pick up items the size of a pin head which took ages to find as they were so small. The new one kept going nuts and when a knob broke I...

    Depth modification of detector circuit boards.

    I was told that MDs are radio transmitters so are restricted to stop the frequencies getting out too far. This would definitely restrict depth. I know a slow swing speed is an easy thing to do to improve depth. On vintage detectors you can get onto the PCB and potentially modify them. I...
