    It's my understanding that any headphones with the following spec will work...

    On the CTX: 1) STEREO headphones (with a 1/4" stereo jack) 2) MONO headphones (with a 1/4" mono jack) 3) MONO headphones (with a 1/4" stereo jack if the tip, ring, and sleeve are all properly wired and the ring and sleeve are tied together) It seems that the mono headphones should also work...

    Question for Those of You That Have Jumpered Your Headphones or Used an Adapter...

    Have you noticed any decreased volume in the headphones? It seems that the CTX has a 2-channel output (stereo with the same audio on each channel). The web site shows two acceptable headphone wirings, where the tip, ring, and sleeve all need to be connected. My best guess for the change is...

    Headphone Issues? Try Gray Ghost NDTs!

    I have heard that many headphones don't work correctly with the CTX. I'm assuming that this is a stereo/mono issue and you can use an adaptor from Radio Shack--can anyone confirm that this is the issue? So it's not, as some have said, Minelab forcing you to use their headphones. The Gray...

    First Hunt with My New CTX and First Impressions...

    I had to take the new unit out today on its maiden voyage. Here are some of my first impressions... I love the wireless module. Not being ties to the detector gives you a real feeling of freedom! Excellent feature! The pinpoint trigger is great, much better that a front panel button with an...

    Why No SunRay X-1 for This Thing?

    I got a 3030 on order from my favorite detector dealer & forum sponsor -- Detector Depot! Just curious why there's no X-1 for this machine....still having a tough time putting down my trusty Explorer SE Pro, but this machine caught my attention. I ordered a Minelab pinpointer too, but also...

    Dirt Ice (or Ice the Hard Way)!

    I sadly lost my Mom to cancer recently and have not been posting here for a while. A few days after the funeral I badly needed some peace of mind that only getting out with my Explorer SE Pro can do. I'd just started to detect an historic house that goes back to the early 1800's. Hoping to find...

    Jim42 - I stand corrected! :surrender:

    I have to apologize for not believing the deal you posted and I posted so the other day. I happened across that site when a fellow hunter asked me to vote for his finds in a contest. It seems that array of items is included with the package. It seemed incredible at first, but if you add up...

    Last Hunt of Year (?) Produces a Couple Sweet Buckles...

    The weather was in the 40's on Saturday and I had a chance to get out for 2 hours or so to a spot I'd hit before that had produced some nice relics. My first target (as I hacked through a couple inches of frozen ground) was a surprise! This small, sweet, buckle...my first working buckle (all...

    A Dandy of a Dandy Button and My First CW Token!

    Hunted an 1880's property with permission that obviously has some prior history. My second target on Saturday was my first CW store card/token (not many found in NJ).....thought it was an IH with a hole thru it, but it's got writing around the outside that I can't quite make out (I see RANCZ...

    Hand Mirror Frame?

    Hi, This site has the potential to hold relics from the 1600's to 1800's. Unfortunately they've torn down an old house and the strata appear to be disturbed. I'm using an Explorer and this signal sounded just like silver at 4".....I dug down about 8" - 10" and was PO'ed when I first pulled this...

    A Sweet Button...

    My huntng buddy Capri_Auto and I located a colonial era site that made or some rough detecting as I believe the strata have been disturbed by demolishions or landscaping that has occurred on the site. I know this site holds some fascinating secrets below and we hope to find more if and when...

    British Officer's Spoon?

    The site this came from had seen some Rev. War action. I dug this partial spoon/fork and is about the oldest I've recovered. Not sure if it was used during the war by either the Brits (more likely I believe) or Washington's troops or even prior to the war, but it's OLD peweter as far as I can...
