    Surprised

    I pounded my yard with the DFX testing new programs and coils. I bought a barely used Gold Bug in auction a couple of months ago and was surprised to find coins that I had missed with the DFX. I never thought the depth on the DFX was what it should be. Anyway, I'm going to try it out some more...

    Surprised

    Away from metal detecting a few years and come back to find that White's has gone under. Gonna dust off the old DFX and get busy.

    First silver with Gold Bug!

    Also first Barber dime! I've been running it with all-metal and no discrimination when possible using the 5" coil. I am waiting on the 7×11 DD coil to add on. It should really be a mean machine!

    New to Gold Bug

    I won a Fisher Gold Bug on auction and was pleased to see that it was in new condition. I tried it out in my yard as soon as I got home and was shocked to find coins that my White DFX had missed. I have hammered my yard with the DFX because every new setting and coil was tested there first. Also...

    Dig all targets?

    These people that dig all targets but those that they think are iron must have some really clean places to hunt. I'.d have truckload of aluminum if I did that! I depend on the signagraph to confirm vdi's.

    DFX to CZ 3.D?

    Thinking about selling my DFX and getting a CZ 3D or F75. Anyone made this change or have any advice?

    Civil War button collectors?

    I found this button this morning next to an old river that was left after The Great Raft was cleared from the Red River. I actually wasn't seeking artifacts but was expecting coins. I believe it is from a Union uniform because I saw a couple on a site from Massachusetts uniforms. It is the size...

    Is the DFX obsolete now?

    Faint signal

    I was detecting a park close to home that has a man-made beach (freshwater) where I have found a few good coins with my deep-seeking modified beach/jewelry program. This morning I hit a faint signal with VDIs varying widely from pos. to neg. This was a sure digger for me because almost all of...

    Best for land hunting?

    I'm now very close to being able to purchase a quality metal detector and believe while depth isn't everything, it sure helps you make the older finds. I am trying to decide between the Quattro and Explorer. I like what I read about the Quattro but read that it is deeper on beaches and the...

    Mastering the Quattro

    May be on to something here!

    I've been looking to upgrade to a detector that will reach way down there so I don't feel like I'm passing over a lot of good stuff. I mostly detect parks and schools but I do have one site for Civil War era relics and coins. I know there is deeper stuff where I've been detecting so I'm going to...

    Its a ring!

    Only had 30 mins to detect this morning but netted one clad penny and this ring:

    2500 GTI versus MXT

    Does anyone of you that have both of these detectors know how they compare on depth when coinshooting say in a park with a moderate amount of junk. I also will be using for relic hunting civil war items.Thanks in advance!
