    LEGEND

    Is my guess that Nokta would ship via the Mediterranean route to the USA, rather than through the Suez Canal and Red Sea route. The reasons are obvious.

    The Legend is here!

    I lack the special knowledge required to operate and/or interpret the results of such a test on an oscilloscope. What I can do is read, and nowhere in the literature or owners manual does it reference the number of frequencies being used simultaneously With either the Nox or the Legend. But...

    The Legend is here!

    I just spent some time in the manual, and cannot find anything remotely confirming your two frequency allegation. "Weighting" of certain frequencies are implemented in certain modes, but nothing to substantiate only two frequencies in Multi-IQ. See page 29 of the manual for Multi-IQ explained...

    LEGEND

    The chip shortage in the USA is because the chips are on container ships unable to get into port. I doubt the Turks are having the same problem.

    My first year in review...

    Today marks the end of my first year of metal detecting. The year was filled with many learning experiences, as well as some great finds (I won’t bore you with all the images). In this year I purchased and operated a Bounty Hunter Land Ranger Pro, which found lots of interesting finds. It’s also...

    Two hunts and a nap in between them.

    Pretty darn good day out metal detecting Sunday with my new Minelab Equinox 800. Just got it Wednesday, but it’s been too hot and humid to hunt until today. I love having two machines that are essentially the same, so the transition to the backup machine will be virtually seamless if need be...

    First 19th century find

    Was invited today to detect a site that was built in 1850. Only dug three coins in three hours, but the second signal on the Nox 600 was this 1888 Flowing Hair dime. It was only down 5-6” deep, and rang in 26-27 on Park 1, Sensitivity 22, 0 Ground balance & recovery speed 2 . The front is in...

    Have not posted in awhile, but still hunting!

    While I have not posted in awhile, I still get out several times each week and scour the schools, parks, city lots and anyplace I can swing my Nox 600. Here are some of the finds from recent hunts. The most recent was this week when I hunted my daughter and her husbands city lot that they’re...

    Bonus Hunt Day...Thanks, jim tn!

    Thanks to jim tn for reminding me about woods detecting once my open parks froze over. I took his advice and headed to one of our local Metroparks for an afternoon of hill climbing and detecting the floor of the woods. I managed to get a small amount of clad on the sides of the walking trails...

    Pretty much frozen out for now.

    Unless I drive south about an hour, I’m frozen out of detecting for the foreseeable future. We have gotten very little snow, but no shortage of sub freezing nights and barely freezing days without sun...typical NE Ohio winter weather. Got out today for about 3-1/2 hours and all the bare ground...

    First vintage headstamp

    Got out yesterday from noon till 3:00 and hunted a new section of a very large park. The ground was frozen where there was no grass, but the areas with grass were just a little crunchy to dig in. Found ring #7. The stone is cracked and the band was very mangled, but it’s sterling and I was able...

    Finds before the storm and tornado!

    It rained all morning yesterday, so,I didn’t get out until 1:00. By 2:45 the thunder was rolling and I saw lightning getting close. Got back in the truck just as the sky opened up, and it rained for the next four hours. Nearby a tornado actually formed near a lake, which is unheard of in NE Ohio...

    Good 2019 Kickoff

    Two day combination while the ground is still able to be dug. Looks like we’ve got at least another full week of above normal temps and below normal snowfall. "I'll take it!" Most exciting find...2013 Hot Wheels car. I love finding these guys. Following closely are the trio of wheat back...

    Second day with the 5x8 coil.

    The sun came out and it was comfortable enough to go swinging. Getting comfortable with the 5x8 coil on the AT Max, and hoping to close out 2018 with one more hunt tomorrow. Uploaded at Snapagogo.com

    Two days of nice weather and a new coil...

    Between the revolving door of company and all the craziness of Christmas, I was able to get out to the new school I’ve been hunting. I managed a handful of clad and my very first Mercury Dime...1943S. I was amazed that it was barely 1” below the grass roots. Sure feels good when you hit silver...
