    New mode for the Learning the CTX programs.

    First off. The long information and instructions that went with the learning modes somehow disappeared. I have re-posted them. If you have taken a look at the learning modes, but didn’t download them because you couldn’t figure out what they were for, you might want to take another look. From...

    Has anyone noticed that grass doesn't grow around trash?

    I don't know if it's my imagination or what. I've often noticed that with a coin on or near the surface there is an inch or two diameter space with no grass growing. Also with a larger piece of trash a few inches under the surface there can be a patch of 3 -4 inches that is bare or with sparse...

    Keep good information you find!

    Stupid me!! I'm posting this so others don't make the same mistake I did. I have found a lot of good information on this site and thought, 'Boy, I've got to remember that.' I just saw a good video and it finally occurred to me to bookmark that page. I can't believe I didn't think of something...

    Do shops let you borrow a detector?

    My nephew is thinking of getting a metal detector since his son has taken a liking to it. I was wondering if metal detecting shops often let a beginner borrow a detector to find what they like? Harry

    Are Lake Michigan beaches productive in the spring?

    Are the beaches north of chicago or on the indiana side productive to hunt in the spring? Harry

    Can you detect in frozen ground?

    Last spring I first went out when the ground was mostly thawed. I did go to one place that was heavily shaded. In a few areas there was moss on the ground with ice crystals on it. I got indecipherable signals from this. I don't know if the ground underneath was thawed as in other places. When...

    Can anyone think of a reason not to use Target Trace?

    The title asks the question. Maybe target trace slows the detection rate a little? Maybe target trace sometimes interferes with being able to determine a good target from a bad? Harry

    I was just reading about ferrous reliability and bounce.

    I was just reading about significant bounce in FE numbers on good targets. I've read some about it before in other posts, and it brings up a question. I've seen posts with FE numbers for good targets at 15, 17, 20, or even into the upper 20's. I mostly find iron signals around FE 31 or so, with...

    Is there a video somewhere that shows the 'wiggle?'

    The title pretty much says asks it all.

    A little comment on CTX software suggestions.

    I've read some of the posts in the software suggestions, and made a couple myself. But, I wonder if they have very much extra memory in the CTX to be able to make many updates to the software. I suppose if they rewrote their entire code to make it more condensed, they might have more room for...

    Search Modes for Learning the CTX 3030 :detecting: by harryhh

    I have just made a post in the Resource Center titled 'Search Modes for learning the CTX 3030. http://www.findmall.com/read.php?87,2019302,2019302#msg-2019302 It is a series of search modes that I hope will help new detectorists with the CTX, or any detectorist new to the CTX, to more easily...

    Search Modes for learning the CTX 3030.

    I have uploaded a series of step-by-step training, or learning search modes, for the CTX 3030. Each step opens a new area of the search pattern to be learned. They are designed mainly for the new metal detectorist, but can be used by any detectorist new to the CTX. I think that the Combined...

    XChange 2 organization question.

    Before I post in the 'Software update suggestions,' I thought I'd ask here first. In XChange 2 I have a collection with a lot of search modes in there. I would like to move them around and put them in the order that I want. There doesn't seem to be any good way to do that. All there is, is the...

    Can I upload an .mlf file?

    I would like to upload and post an .mlf file that I think would be fun for children and novices. Is this not allowed? Thanks, Harry
