    Nice Deep Indian With The V3

    Awesome cyber. I'm wondering if your still using the slow swing program you wrote after getting you V or if you're on something new? I had yur program in my V but lost it with the i update.

    Detecting in a downpour tomorrow!

    Cool! I love detecting in the rain, I'm not sure why. Maybe because nobody around to bug ya. A set of frog tog rain gear, a dry sweater and a hot cup of coffee when you're done.

    Pin pointing without Audio

    So I have a question..... Why do we insist on trying to find user error or blame settings, coils etc. ???? This is a quirk with the V3i. As I stated earlier - I'm using STOCK settings. Though I first noticed it with the 10x12 I tested the D2 today and got the same issue. I've been...

    Pin pointing without Audio

    I think it's fairly unlikely that a reported problem with the V3i pinpoint with various coils is going to come back to a coil problem or in any way related to the coil one is using. FTR my friends V3i has the same issue on ocassion with the D2. I have no doubt if I used the D2 that I would...

    Pin pointing without Audio

    I hadn't been using my V much but I've been dealing with a case of minelab elbow recently so picked up the V again on the last few hunts. Man what a huge improvement over the V3! Anyway, I did experience this pinpoint audio problem twice last night. 10x12 SEF coil, No TX boost running in stock...

    V3i coil recommendation needed-please help

    I'll second the 10x12 recommendation though it's not technically "v-rated" it runs perfectly on my machine.

    SunRay X5 (5" coil - fits E-Trac, Explorers, Safari etc.)

    $100 shipped via USPS. Paypal Preffered but willing to consider other methods of payment. Fits Minelab Explorer S, XS, II, SE, E-Trac, Safari & Quattro In near new condition. Works perfect, I'm just not a fan of such a small coil. I don't have the patience. I could be wrong but I believe...

    Etrac Battery (1600mah) battery F/S or Trade.

    I have 3 and 3 is too many. It's virtually new. Bought with my ET and each has been used a couple of times. $60 Shipped. Would do a trade on a car charger (for these batteries) +$. Would also consider other trades (such as ML coils) inwhich I send battery +$. Watcha got? I think these...

    Shoot, Close Shave with Large Silver

    Way to go Larry. :clapping: It's been a few years since I've found a walker. :rage: I just missed one a couple of night ago. My friend got her. I think I actually went right over it with the ET - I was running the stock coin program (due to high trash) which I do believe will discriminate a...

    First nice coin in a while for me!

    Am I remembering correctly, even though the coin is counterfeit, it's still an 18th century coin, right?

    V3i for beginner?

    I think it's fine as a first detector as long as you use one of the turn on and go programs for a long while before trying to adjust anything. The only reason I would recommend something else is the fact that it's a $1500+ detector and many (maybe even the majority) new detectorists end up...

    Spectra V3i comparison to F75 and E-Trac first post

    Not really a viable arguement. Minlabs menu's are only easier because there is MUCH less available to adjust.

    Spectra V3i comparison to F75 and E-Trac first post

    I have own/have owned all 3 and feel I could give a non-bias opinion. Though Larry is spot on, no one is best in all areas and much depends on what you are hunting for primarly. The problem is you are far from knowing that. Even if you think you know what you're after, that can change. F75...

    Garrett Pro-Pointer Failure and Customer Service

    My Pro_pointer failed on a hunt. I've never heard of one failing so was pretty surprised. Figured I had a loose/shorted wire or something and could fix myself. I unscrewed the internals and slid electronics out and when I did so the switch caught on the housing and disintegrated. :laugh: Put...
