    Settings for high iron areas/ ghost towns

    Sorry to bother but I inquired what folks were using in ghost towns or anywhere that buildings burn with a high volume of nails. I find numerous tin cans as well. It appeared I had two posts but cannot access them. Any settings info is greatly appreciated! Peggy

    Settings for ghost towns?

    I have been fortunate to get permission on several ghost towns here in Idaho. I am a new user of the NOX although I have had it for several months but after recently finding a 1867 seated dime in pretty good condition I am sold. I have an area that had a stagecoach stop and lost city and would...

    Thoughts on settings for detecting old homes?

    I am aware that everyone is still learning the NOX. I have the 800 and have watched videos over and over again. I realize there are no magic answers but I would greatly appreciate a few pointers. Thank you in advance! Peggy

    CTX acting up and hope someone has an answer:confused:

    I have had the CTX for close to 6 years. Yesterday as I detected on several properties each time I set the machine down there was a continuous obnoxious noise. The numbers on the display screen pretty much stayed them the same so it wasn’t falsing. I kept noise cancelling to no avail. This...

    How to reset the "edit" function

    I am sorry if this question has been asked and answered and I thank you in advance for suggestions. I cannot edit any of my modes (ie; change to ground coin, seawater, ferrous coin etc). I have tried to reset the machine to see if that was the trick but that is not working! Any thoughts? Thanks...

    " Coil Not Detected"

    I was 7 hours into hunting on properties with old houses here in San Diego. My first target was a 1907 barber dime. Finds kept coming until my display screen stated "Coil not detected". Kinda funny wording but never funny when one is out doing what they love and it comes to a quick halt! I did...

    any thoughts would be apprecited on this problem!

    I know most love this CTX but it has been a curse a good deal of time for me. I am on my 4th pair of headphones (would love to be able to afford a higher grade but no can do). My battery charger died while on vacation in the Pacific Northwest in some great detecting Country but I did have my...

    A cache of coins :)

    kinda of embarrassing posting this after Dr Tones post but this should put a smile on faces. I have been doing MUCH better with my CTX with a little help from my friends and you know who you are. After work last night a buddy and I went to an older park in Oceanside CA. My first hit was a silver...

    A mode question???

    Given the CTX is noted for finding silver so well has anyone used the silver mode exclusively? Would doing so eliminate other coins or jewelry or would we still see a possible gold target etc.? May be a dumb question but thought I'd ask. Peggy

    Louisville saved my sanity

    I found myself a detecting Angel in Kentucky. I have posted a few times only with questions because I couldn't (note past tense) figure this CTX out. I kept trying but got frustrated and fell back on my reliable Whites. I received a lot of great advice that was greatly appreciated but was still...

    another beach hunting question?

    Just posted this message under another post-guess I need some more coffee. From that post it mentioned the sea water setting. I went to the beach yesterday, set my mode to beach and tried to edit to sea water but the machine just squawked at me. What am I doing wrong. Just wondering if I only...

    The best coil for San Diego beaches

    Well I finally figured out how to start a new post-it only took me a couple of days but better late than never. I am new to this forum and am really enjoying reading the great info that is here. I am three + years into this wonderful hobby but at 55 years young just wish I had begun years ago. I...
