    Headphones?

    With all due respect, If I could not go out metal detecting without worrying about dangerous animals or dangerous humans, I would start looking for a safer place to detect and maybe to live. :oops:

    Don't care for 1.11

    Not sure if it's possible and not sure why you would want to. I've used both versions and cannot imagine any reason why the detector would not work at least as well with v1.11 than it did with v1.09, assuming of course the download was done correctly and you put all the personalized settings in...

    Hardwired wireless headphones

    I think the Racer 2 wireless headphones are great but has anyone tried the hard wire cable provided with them? In my experience it didn't work. With every swing over a target the headphone volume got lower until after a few swings there was silence. I tried two adapters and had the same results.

    Racer 2 Tracking question

    I've read the manual and scanned the forums but I can't seem to find out WHY Tracking GB is not recommended for use in the discrimination modes? I don't have a problem with doing auto or manual GB but I'm just curious why Tracking is only recommended for All Metal.

    Nail tests

    It is not my intention to debate the practicality of these test, but I'm curious if anyone has done any nail board testing with the E-Trac using Ferrous tones (TTF or 4TF)?

    Video?

    Is anyone aware of any Impact videos demonstrating the VLX modes? I realize they are sort of "lite" modes but I would like to see them in action. If you know of any vids like this please reply with a link. Thanks.

    Headphone compatibility question

    Does anyone know if the Original Gray Ghost headphones will work with the AT-Pro with the Garrett headphone adapter? I'm a big fan of the AT-Pro but not so much of the headphones. Thanks...

    Thinking out loud...

    At some point I would like to see a video or thread on the Impacts ability to cherry pick coins. Its ability to tell dimes from copper memorials (if possible), notch out zincs, that sort of thing. I realize this isn't the type of "all metal" detecting most folk do, but regrettably, it's the...

    Impact's display

    I like my E-Trac and it finds good stuff but ever time I look at that bright, beautiful display on the Impact I fall a little more in love. :drool:

    VLX1 and VLX2

    Maybe I missed it somewhere, but could someone please explain the Impact's VLX1 and VLX2 modes? I wish the manual was available online so maybe I could answer some of these questions on my own! Thanks...

    Some Impact questions?

    I was hoping someone familiar with this unit might respond to some questions I have? 1. Does ground balance tracking work in all search modes? 2. Does the battery cover have to be removed to use wired headphones? 3. Is the screen visible in normal light without use of the backlight? 4. How...

    Garrett Z-Lynk Wireless System

    Does anyone know if this wireless system will work with the E-Trac? They work with VLF and Pulse units but FBS is not mentioned.

    Tejon question

    I would like to eventually add a beep and dig Tesoro unit to my detector arsenal and have a quick question. Can a Tejon user tell the difference between a dime and quarter? Thanks in advance.

    Garmin GPS and google maps

    I use the Historicalaerials site to snip historical aerials of local parks, highway rest parks etc. (dates vary site to site) and save them as jpgs. I then import the jpg file into Google Earth and georeference them.. The georeferenced fiiles are saved as a KML extension and the files copied...

    Could this be done?

    Would it be possible to build a metal detector pin-pointing device using a metal detector control box and a handmade coil pointer? It's not something I could do, but would it be feasible? Just curious...
