    I found out why my Nokta Legend broke

    I'm an EE and between work and projecting over my 20 year career I have never seen or caused an ESD damaged part, and I rarely bother with "proper" grounding. Can ESD damaged surface mount electronics? Sure. Will it? Almost certainly not.

    Went to Bethany Beach Delaware today

    Why do you feel you may need to do something differently, was the machine chatty? Do you feel like there were targets you missed?

    Dont set your tone break too high!

    Nice. I think I have mine set right at 11. Why back if off all the way to 7, I don't think you are likely to find many gold rings much smaller than the one you dug at 11.

    Looking for the Nokta Macro bluetooth headset

    So after looking at this I thought I would take a look at my old Motorola Buds (looks very similar style). I have tried 5 or 6 different head sets or ear buds, all without aptX LL and they have all been to delayed to be usable. I will note the new motorola buds are detached earbuds, but the...

    Looking for the Nokta Macro bluetooth headset

    And this complicates the process of buying 3rd party headphones as aptX LL is an older codec that was not widely implemented.

    Now more Qs than As, EMI Hell Zone

    What's it register when you take it off her finger?

    Odd instance of totally defeating EMI.

    I never really messed with the threshold setting. I noticed that it doesn't produce an audible tone until you get to 11 or 12. Is there a reason it's set for zero in all the modes except goldfield? Is it just a matter of erring on the side of caution for stability? Has anyone done any tests...

    Extra middle rod

    I had four lowers for my V3i for just that reason.

    New armrest and shaft weight

    So you could swing the detector while holding a McDonald's quarter pounder and it would feel normal? I'm in.

    Legend settings?

    That's been my question for every detector I have owned going back to the 80s. If you find the settings let me know in a PM.

    Coil damage?

    I won't say it's impossible, but it seems unlikely that the board could produce enough current to physically defect the wire even if it dumped the entire battery into it all at once. Much more likely to pop something in the power circuitry of the board first.

    Coil damage?

    Except for "smart" coils like with the Deus, there isn't much that can go wrong with a coil. It's a length of conductive wire epoxied into a specific configuration. If it passes QA, it should be good (barring significant physical damage) for many many years. So if you got a bad one it should...

    The legend.

    I was never much one for asking permission to detect personal property, too much of an introvert I guess. I did have a friend that kept a detector in his work truck and every time he was out at a customers location he would ask permission to detect. Worked quite well for him and over the years...

    Screen protector question

    So I did it. And it's okay, quite a bit more reflective and the tape visor didn't really help. I will probably keep it on because I like the protection for the buttons and side and can live with the glare.

    Does Nokta Makro not honor their warranty?

    That was the first thing I said. You quoted my post but didn't read it?
