    Short Headphone Extension Cord?

    Anyone know where you can buy ready made headphone extension cables in shorter lengths? I'm looking for a 2 foot cable. I'm wanting to relocate the headphone jack on my Tesoro Mojave back by the arm cuff. HH Mike

    Received my CZ3D my initial observations

    My 1021 3D arrived Friday. Upon opening the box first two things I noticed was its in excellent condition and that CZ's are built like a tank. Mine came with both the 8" & 10.5" coils. Don't think I've ever seen more solidly built coils. I really like the gold anodized shafts. I only had a...

    CZ-3D Wet Sand Settings ?

    Have nice 1021 cz3d in the original box on the way from a trusted dealer with the 8" and 10.5" coils. Heading to Myrtle Beach for two weeks in mid September. Looking for tips on settings for running it on the wet sand. Not going in the water. Also, does the ground balance procedure in the manual...

    Anyone tried the new Garrett MS-2 headphones?

    Wondering if anyone has tried these out yet? They look like a nice set phones. For the money I always like the Garrett Master Sound headphones so these should be great. HH, Mike

    Joined the Mojave Club

    Received my Mojave Saturday from Backwoods. After reading all the great posts couldn't hold out any longer. What a sweet machine. Really love the precision 7 coil. Nice blend of coverage and separation. I think the Mojave is going to be awesome at my old sites that have square nails galore. I'm...

    Has anyone tried any other coils on their Mojave?

    Wondering if anyone has tried any of the other Epsilon coils on their Mojave and how they air test compared to the 7"? Seems like the Mojave with the stock coil plus a 9x8 concentric for better coverage would handle most situations. Looks like a great detector. HH, Mike

    Largest Garrett Search Coil I've Ever Seen

    Our family went to the Trans Siberian Orchestra concert last night. While standing in line to enter the doors attendants were telling us to please remove all metallic items from our pockets including cell phones before passing through the scanner. I was oblivious thinking about the concert when...

    Walked outside to detect and saw this.

    Was heading outside with my Ace 300 to do a little swinging before work. I looked up at one of our old sycamore trees that is home to a lot of woodpeckers and couldn't believe my eyes. There on a branch sat a Bald Eagle. As a birder got say this made my day. Sorry about the poor image quality as...

    Short hunt with the Ace 300

    Took my Ace 300 to one of our farm fields with the 5x8 DD coil mounted. Found this cool little axe head and a few square head nails. HH, Mike

    Good first day with my new Ace 300

    Off to a good start with my new Ace 300. Went to a old one room school site on our farm and found a 1911 Wheat Cent and a 1883 Indian Head. The coins were within three feet of each other at approximately 6 inches depth. Was running in relic mode with sensitivity one bar down from max. Garrett...

    CZ3D on wet sand ?

    Anyone have experience using a cz3d in wet sand and ankle deep surf on the Atlantic side? Wasn't sure how well it would perform since it's a two frequency unit. My wife and I vacation every year in Myrtle Beach and I'm looking for a good machine to use there as well as at home in the farm...

    ? for you Compadre 8" coil owners

    Thinking about getting a 8" coil Compadre and wanted to ask if someone who hasn't adjusted their internal sensitivity pot could do a simple airtest for me. Test a nickel, clad dime and quarter with the disc set at the "F" on foil. I know air test are subjective and I'm not looking for the...

    Got my best find yesterday, not a ring or a coin but:

    A Tesoro Stingray:clapping: Picked it up off of Craigslist yesterday for 50 Bucks. Couldn't believe it. The guy was selling this and a ton of scuba gear that belonged to his father. It's in nice clean shape and seems to work fine. I'll probably still send it in for a calibration since it's an...

    Cool Field Find Today

    Today I was looking for areas of activity. Running in all metal and just doing some crisscross patterns on high ground areas. Got a loud and long response that was an obvious large target and pulled out an old splitting wedge. Funny thing was it was straight in the ground as if hammered in...

    Field Hunt 2

    Took the Vaquero back out to one of our fields. The all-metal mode is great. Doesn't miss much. These finds were in an area I've covered a lot with other detectors. The Vaquero definitely hits hard. Mike
