    Legend Trouble Shooting

    If that turns out to be the case , don't let it make you gun shy of getting another one. I use mine almost exclusively any more and would prefer it any day over the stock 11" coil.(y)

    First thing I would try is a different coil.

    Battery Pack or the Legend

    I have been leaving mine on . I often hunt in 4kz and use the backlight on high so drain the batteries pretty fast. The pack prevents me from being surprised and getting that low battery signal. The weight does add to the balance with the larger 30 and 35 coils

    Why don't the new machines have GPS?

    I think the manufacturers would find it a losing proposition if they made the GPS a feature that was an optional item like a package with additional coils that many offer. If it added weight and cost to a machine most who felt it would be useful would just buy a reasonably priced stand alone GPS...

    Why don't the new machines have GPS?

    Never saw the need for the GPS in my CTX or any other gadget I might have. If it adds even a couple of hundred to the cost of a detector , that equals the value of a couple months of detecting finds or more in the venues I have at my disposal and the number of available sites drops daily,,,,no...

    9.5 Years...

    I hi-lited my buttons with white paint as well and most are dirt colored now but even that helps. I was a ML guy as well and the Legend is not an etrac or CTX but it does get the shout over the NOXs. The tones are not as descriptive as the ML tones but they work and I have been more than...

    Gold...sell or hold ?????

    I would have trouble dealing with that as well. Worst offer I have ever had on silver was 90% , gold is 95% , last time I sold silver was at $30 which was 5 over spot and the important thing on silver to remember is that "spot in not". Check the big selling sites like Monex or Apmex and then...

    Gold...sell or hold ?????

    You're going to be better off finding a local source to sell than sending it to a refiner with the cost of shipping and percentages the refiner will eventually take. Know what you have and take it someone reputable even if you have to travel a few miles and if they will deal on a cash basis ...

    Gold...sell or hold ?????

    My philosophy has never been "sell or hold" when it comes to precious metals , I prefer "spend or keep" , there is a difference and don't forget the tax implications if you choose to sell with a paper trail.

    Coin tumbling question…

    Want get them really clean quick? Don't use gravel , substitute with a couple boxes of 1/2 to 3/4" zinc or chrome screws.

    Legend V1.14 Beta

    Interesting but I'm going to have to wait for the final version , sounds like it turns the well mannered Legend into an F75 ltd in boost mode with 100% sensitivity.;)

    Manticore

    I experience plenty of that myself but it kills me to leave behind even zinc readings if they sound a little better than normal. The biggest drawback with using the Legend is the crowded target VDI in the 40+ range.

    Manticore

    Dirt has lot to do with VDI when you start talking about 1 digit differences. In my dirt on the etrac , CTX dimes often read lower than a copper 12-43 vs 12-44 for a copper , zincs much lower to 12-37 , on the legend dimes never go above 46 , coppers 44-46. Why you would care is beyond me ...

    Newer Metal Detectors

    I don't like doing it either but that seems to be the trend these days , just like sealed components , lithium batteries , carbon fiber and multi-frequency. Technology marches forward whether good or more complicated. I just started using a smart phone a couple of months ago and we are all going...
