    all metal mode

    I have been bumping along for 30 plus years. Recently added an MXT Pro to the other beauties hanging on the garage wall. In recent excursions thru this and other sites I am sure I have seen reference to using an all metal mode on the MXT Pro. Please enlighten me...Many thanks

    DL---Disabled List

    Have been lurking but not contributing do to my condition. It is clear to me that all detector manufacturers should issue hard hats as part of their equipment. One day when I got home and asked my wife "What are you doing here, where is Marge" she knew I had walked into another steel cross beam...

    Sweet old silver

    although not in very good shape. Somewhat like me. I need to start icing my 75 year old knees after each outing. Found this dime in Salem,Oregon this past Sunday. The Red Book says only 8,000 were minted and quotes a price of $300. Coin browser on the web says $350. I should at least be able to...

    ow-ouch-ow

    Good day folks, I have to have a gold crown removed and replaced. The original cannot be saved, told the doc that I want it. Can at least get a senoir cup of coffee at McDonalds? Having the usual end of summer detecting luck. Good time for golf though. Weather people are talking rain Saturday...

    New to forum

    Been swinging a White's for thirty years. Last 12 with xlt. Intersted in mxt pro. In hunted out areas I can turn off audio descrimination and hunt deep in all metal and still get an approximation of the target. Anything comparable with the mxt? Although in reading your depth reports it may not...

    It had to happen

    After thirty years of hunting, my last three outings have concinced me that I have found ALL of the silver in NW Oregon. Guess I will hang up the xlt and get my Pings out again.... If you think you see me swinging a loop it's just my avatar

    Mom & Pop

    I did not get the detector out of the rig. However, I still did some shooting, just not coins. Taken at Ladd Marsh outside of La Grande, Oregon.

    Three coins in a fountain--NOT

    'they are on my kitchen bar. I had planned on calling my Whites guru tomorrow and ordering a v3i. Then this am I only confused myself further. Went to an area I have hunted for 20 years(maybe 3 to 4 acres). Set up a little different relic program and found this small spill. Now I will debate...

    Who Dat

    I'm hearing rumors about one of our group and an incident in southern Florida.Since I am so far from the source it is hard verify the facts. Here is what is reaching the Northwest. When this person moved to Florida he took up temporary residence in a posh hotel with a roof top pool. The first...

    plastic booties

    Left home at 6:45 to go to Salem. About 15 miles. Since I wanted to buy apples before I started to hunt I did not put my boots on while still in the garage. I would just take them with me. At about the 8 mile mark I realized I did not pick up my boots. My Spaldings were never going to stand 2...

    So smart

    I am so sharp I cannot figure how to respond to Vernon's quiz. You would never guess I only missed one question. I watch 2 to 3 hours of Joe Scarborough every morning which helps keep me up on current events. Follow this with an hour or so of CNBC's stock market show. Hope this gets thru this...
