    Problem tuning IDX-Pro with Mr Bill Mod

    I'm proud owner of my IDX-Pro with Mr. Bill's mod. Can't seem to get any depth over about 4 inches worth a darn. I try to adjust ground balance and threshold but guess I don't know just how to do it properly. Would appreciate any assistance.

    Iron Age Relic

    While detecting with my ACE 250 I recently discovered an Iron Age relic in great shape. Where would be a good place for me to contact to have it authenticated and a price put on it?.

    Pro Pointer Problem

    My Pro Pointer is acting up. I usually get about 3.5 inch responce with a quarter on an air test. It's been gradually decreasing to about1.2 inch. I've tried a few new 9 v batteries with the same result. Any suggestions? I don't know if there is any repairing to them.

    10x14 Excelerator coil

    I few months ago I purchased a Excelerator coil for my ACE 250. Since I put in on I haven't taken it off. I have been getting some false signaling off and on but I thought I might be using to high sensitivity. I've been going between 4 and 6. I didn't think that was extremely high but none...

    Help ID a King George III Copper

    I went a hunting the other day and came up with 2 old copper coins if very bad shape. I'm not able to take a pix that would show anything. One is a 1805 cent that, on the obverse side has the word "LIBERTY" over the bust of some one that is facing right. His hair is tied up with what looks...

    Ace 250 problem

    I went out yesterday in 80- deg temp. Was doing O K and I didn't pickup any signal for a while. When I looked at the detector it had powered off. I turned it back on and went about my business and in about five minutes it shut off again. This went on for about 15 minutes an gave up. The...

    How many detectors.

    I would like to take a poll. How many metal detectors do you have in your arsenal? Not by brand, just the number. I'll start off with 7. Get Dirty..Dirty Don

    Sunday Club Hunt

    Today probably wasn't the best day I ever had metal detecting, but it rates up there quite a bit. Our local club had it's first hunt of the year in an old farmers field. The usual finds were plenty. Horse shoe nails, plow parts, beer cans and all that good stuff. About half thru the hunt I got...

    Batteries. Another question

    I see that there are several batteries with different mA ratings. Some are rated at 1000 mA and others at about 2300 mA. and others in between. Would a higher rated battery be better for my ACE 250? Could there be such a thing as too much mA? What difference would they make in the whole scheme...

    My Yellow Rose of Texas

    Being a proud owner of a ACE 250, I can't say enough about the machine, but I have one question. If I were to discriminate out all but coins in every mode would the depth and sound response be the same in each? I would think that the circuitry would be the same in all modes. Thanks..

    The Yellow Rose of Texas.

    When the weather gets a slight bit warmer than it is now in upstate New York. I was thinking my ACE250 out on beach of Oneida Lake. Does anyone have info on the coils, as far as being water proof? If I were to get into shallow water would that be a bad thing for the coils? Which would be the...
