    I just received a shock!

    I just sat down at the keyboard and without my glasses I thought this topic header read, "White Man's Detector Forum"! I can't tell you what my first impression was on reading that! Needless to say, it hit my piss off button! Whew, what a relief! Jim

    ACE 250 Finally Let Me Down

    After dozens of hours behind the stick and in most kinds of weather and soil conditions my ACE 250 finally met a situation it couldn't handle. I was detecting a private athletic field with my ACE and immediately started getting false hits just every few steps. It was the type of signal for...

    Oldest coin to date found

    I have permission to hunt an area where they are tearing down multiple houses for a community development project. I went to one that has some historical significance and on a hunch I ran my ACE 250 over some loose dirt where they had plugged the sewer. Ding,ding, I found two wheat pennies...

    Does the new large coil increase depth on the ACE250?

    I thought I had posted this before but can't find it? Anyway, I am entering a club seeded hunt this weekend. I plan on using my ACE and the new larger coil on a "deep" hunt where coins will be buried between 8 and 12". I can get about 8" out of the standard coil. Will the larger coil give me...

    New Large Coil for ACE 250

    I am entering a club hunt in the near future. One of the hunts is a "deep" hunt where various coins or tokens are buried at 8" or more. I am so confident in my ACE250 I plan on using it instead of my GTI 2500. I have just bought the new large coil for the ACE with the idea of gaining just a...

    Sunray GTI-1` and GTI2500

    I got a Sunray GTI-1 for my 2500 recently and did some preliminary testing that was not too favorable. Since then I have been in contact with Sunray and found out I apparently wasn't using it correctly. So here we go again. Had it out about two hours using my standard 9 1/2" coil working a...

    Garrett Service

    I recently had problems with my GTI 2500 and sent it in to Garrett to get it fixed under warranty. They had it back to me in six days! Service was excellent! But....UPS broke the head off of it in shipping. Took me three weeks to get it straightened out with UPS! Garrett A+ UPS F- Jim

    Garrett 2500

    I have had my Garrett 2500 for about 4 months and hardly ever leave home without it. I feel like I have just about got through the learning curve but a couple of questions come to mind. 1. When I get a hit on a target and pinpoint iut the nice lady's voice comes on and says something like...

    GTI 2500

    I have a GTI 2500 and after 5 months feel pretty comfortable I have mastered the learning curve. However, I often get a reading of a huge target at 12 inches. It blacks out the entire bottom of my screen. Then if I move the coil around a bit I find a coin or other target showing up at 4" or...
