    QUEST V80

    Tony it’s the V60 and V80 and no they are expected to arrive sometime in March from what I am seeing. So far I’ve only seen a review from Andy Sabisch on the Quest user group of Facebook. Looks to have some pretty neat new features. I’m thinking of giving one a go .

    Some Etrac Questions

    I tie a pen to a string and drop it down the shaft and then pull the new coil wire up that shaft. A 2nd shaft would be the way to go though. The E-trac was way ahead of its time but this is one draw back for sure. I'm liking my 7" Lion coil so much though that I don't see taking it off unless I...

    Vista x vs Vista gold hound /gain

    Da quello che ho capito, Vista Gold Gain e ora migliorato Gold Hound hanno una solida reputazione di trovare piccolo argento martellato in terreni infestati da ferro. Non penso che tu possa sbagliare con una macchina a 30 khz. Potresti perdere qualche mm di profondità ma lo compenserai vedendo...

    Vista x vs Vista gold hound /gain

    Se possiedi già l'800, considera la bobina da 6 "per la tua caccia infestata dal ferro poiché l'800 con una bobina piccola ti darà prestazioni molto migliori sul ferro. Credo che Vista X sia più adatto per la caccia a tutto tondo sul segugio d'oro, comunque lo farai voglio anche una piccola...

    Xp orx vs Vanquish 540

    Tony-OK is correct I would check the manual you can turn Iron volume on or off. I just prefer to listen to it...but in really trashy parks that may not be for everyone. You can turn the discrimination up higher and then you will get more iron audio "grunts" or you could also turn the...

    question on the f-44 and replacing the tactile touchpad..

    I went through two Fisher F22's the Pinpoint button moved or outright quit on both of them within a month or two of using them. I sent one in for repair and gave the other machine away to a beginner. I would personally cut your losses and just buy a Simplex or Vanquish if your wanting a much...

    Xp orx vs Vanquish 540

    1st the XP ORX is not multi-frequency. It has multi-frequencies you can select from. With the HF 9" coil you can run 14, 30, or 54khz which will really hit those tiny silver coins. The downside to that is aluminum trash will hit harder as well. It's billed as a gold machine because of these...

    Vista GOLD HOUND

    Just taking a guess that this machine will operate above 30khz - Possibly even above 50khz which wouldn't be a bad thing.

    Raised iron nail test SIMPLEX

    Nice Test! - I've done this test with numerous machines and good Single frequency machines with recovery speed should pass this test. I know longer have a Simplex so I am curious to know how would it perform if you notched out the nail first? Wonder if you would get better or similar performance...

    Coins and Treasury Department

    I tumble all my clad and separate all the pennies in a separate batch. The junk memorials get thrown out. They don't last a year or two in the ground at the soccer fields not sure if its the alloy or the fertilizer that causes them to get roached so fast. The Penny and the Nickel cost more to...

    Deus 2 Gold!!! 18k..

    Nice find! Looks like it has the wedding date inside maybe?.. a name as well. I really like the stock shaft in my ORX never thought about a straight shaft though. Probably easier in the water.

    How many remember the very first detector you started the hobby with and how long ago ??

    My first machine was a bounty hunter tracker my wife bought me for Christmas sometime around 2002 I think. I hardly ever used it and finally just pitched it after the coil gave out. When I got the fisher f2 I started getting real serious and hunted as often as I could get out. I’ve bought and...

    Etrac and Easter comes early

    I had to mail a package on my lunch break and stopped at a playground. Got a loud surface squeal from the Etrac and looked down to what I thought at first was a crushed can. Turned out to be an Easter egg someone had stepped on with almost $3 dollars inside. Not bad for 15 minutes of hunting.
