    iFINDER H2O C

    Looking to pick up a H2O C but wondering if there's more than one version of this model out there? I've noticed that the specifications for the same model, at different websites, is different, i.e. Display Resolution numbers, number of Graphic Marker Icons available, etc. Are there early and...

    E-TRAC/SE Questions?

    While reading Andy's book, I ran across a statement that keeps bouncing around in my head. Seems that when using an Explorer, not much IRON disc is recommended. Reason was, that keeping the screen open allows you to hear the initial hit on a target that's deep or FE compromised. Sort of makes...

    E-trac First Silver

    No getting out of going to my mother-in-laws, so I figured I'd take the E-trac just to get out of the house. Spent about 45 min. covering an area that I already hit with another high-end machine. Found a 1956D Rosie in great shape.... was probably lost in the late fifties. A 1951D wheat cent and...

    Solution looking for a problem?

    At least that's the way it seems. Went with the E-trac hoping it would get more depth than my previous machines and, sure enough, it does just that. The problem, as I see it, is there doesn't seem to be many old coins around. Sink rate here shouldn't be any worse than other parts of the country...

    A bit of silver

    Hit an old park today that has been in use since the lake was created as a water source. (1870's). Used a pattern that I made up for silver, nickels and maybe the odd $5 gold piece. Suspect this area has been cherry picked for shallow silver/clad in the past. Found the usual clad, a wheat penny...

    Starting to understand the E-Trac

    Put in a couple of hours at one of the local parks where an old brewery ( 1870's ) once stood. Quite a bit of trash (non-ferrous) with lots of good sounding targets along the Fe12 line. Eventually decided that it was time to learn rather than being concerned about making good finds. Never...

    Short stroll in the test garden

    First, let me say that I'm not going to get into one of those rants about the E-trac, although I feel like it. Like I said previously, conditions are such that I can run manual #30 without any falsing. Thanks to my Border Collie, some of the targets in the garden either got dug up or lost...

    I'm Stunned!!!

    Shortly after putting the E-Trac together, we took a stroll through what's left of my test garden. Using the "Coin" pattern and Auto Sensitivity, I Noise Canceled and prepared for the possibilities. When I looked at the Auto-Sens it showed #20. Wait a minute....is that possible in this type of...

    E-Trac....First Impressions

    Very solid unit. Weight wise, it's similar to my XLT. Easy to assemble. Appreciate the Field Guide included but I've gone over the manual and Andy's book so many times, I don't think I'll need it. Fired right up, noise canceled, appears to work perfect. Looking forward to trying out the...

    E-trac Question?

    Read somewhere that the E-trac gets better depth in difficult soil. Is this possible? Please tell me it's true!!! Ron
