    Just got my M6...so far so good

    I got my M6 yesterday and went out for a couple hours with it, found a two wheat pennys 5 to 6 inches deep...I see this unit lacks a gain function (increasing sound on deep targets) but I find if you increase your sensitivity past 100 you'll get a gain function although somewhat staticy...The...

    White's Vision vs Minelab explorer

    I have the Minelab Etrac which is their newest high end model, I find in order to get a good ID or a good tone out of it at depth(over 4 inches) the sensitivity has to be past 22 in my area which I can only get in limited places...I live in upstate NY by Rochester

    Andy can you pencil this into your Etrac book

    The sensitivity setting on the Etrac also effects how close you can get coin hits next to trash...The higher the setting the closer you can get...

    Found first silver:detecting:

    I went back to a local park full of trash that I didn't have much luck on a couple weeks ago, I measured out a 100ft by 100ft square across the street from a row of 1920's style houses...First I covered every inch in auto sens(only went to 19, any increase caused falsing), high trash,fast...

    Is there some secret silver switch that I don't know about?

    I think mine is off...So far I got 29 copper pennys dating back to 1929 and not one silver, I've heard that the old timers gobbled up all the easy pickins back 20 years ago but how did they miss these copper pennies??.. did they ignore them on their machines and just cherry picked the...

    Anyone hunt back in the 1980's(the silver years)

    I bought my first detector back in 1986 from the sears catalog, a Whites 6000di pro...The first day I got it, I went to a local NYC park and silvers were just popping out of the ground...I started to ignore the clad stuff , that old analog meter on that machine could tell the difference between...

    The etrac trashy park problem is solved, this might help you guys

    A poster on the etrac forum solved my problem ..I was getting a null when I passed over a piece of surface trash then a buried coin 8 inches away...My sensitivity setting was too low (auto) so I increased it to where it was little bit unstable (23) and it picked up the dime 3 inches away with...

    rbholt80 you solved the trashy park problem : )

    You discovered the cause of why I wasn't getting the dime signal 8 inches away from a piece of trash that was 3 inches higher then the coin..THE SENSITIVITY was below 20 when I did the test, I increased it to 24 (a bit unstable) but I was able to hear the dime 3 inches away which makes me very...

    I emailed Minelab about my Etrac problem

    In my previous posts I described how placing a piece of junk on top of the ground would null out a coin target buried 3 inches ,8inches away from the coin ....Minelab wrote me back saying they are aware of that problem and to reset the Etrac to factory settings..I'm going to reset the Etrac to...
