    Depth question

    I have a Simplex plus and have read and watched all the videos on the new generation Simplex, with that said other than new adjustments on the Ultra are the new Simplex models equal in depth in the same conditions.

    Small coil for my Simplex +

    Trying to decide on which small coil for my Simplex+, mostly it will be used to hunt trashy parks. I have looked at the sp22 and sp24, I would appreciate any input from you folks. I have watched several videos and still can't make up my mind. The standard sp28 coil works well but would like more...

    Is Metal Detecting on the Decline?

    I myself started in 1972 with a White's coinmaster TR unit like some of the other members here and would have to say things have changed with the times not so much is the hobby is in decline, the shine for some has just wore off. When the TV shows about metal detecting started up it provided no...

    I have been trying a new program

    The set - up I am using is more of a cherry picking program so I am not digging much trash. I do dig a few caps but when the numbers are in the high 30' s and the tone is not sharp it usually trash. Early this year I had the same type of signal, not really good but I dug it anyway which turned...

    I have been trying a new program

    Just wondering if anyone has tried running the Equinox in single frequency, at a park recently I switched from Multi to 5 kHz and lowered the sensitivity 18 -19 using a 6in coil . Running in Park1 and accepting 20 and up I was surprised by how well it worked in trash hitting coins down to 8 in...

    advice needed

    I have been there many times over the years, started detecting in 1972 with a Whites coinmaster. At that time finds were easy and silver was everywhere and in my area not very many people detecting. What worked for me was to rethink my approach, its exciting finding old coins but for me also...

    Finally had to try

    After all these years of detecting I never owned a Minelab detector so I ordered a Equinox 600. Really excited about the Multi- frequency and using a brand I only read about. Hearing about the success of others I often wondered what I could be missing. I guess I am a late bloomer and it...

    What's your set up for hunting trashy area's

    Monte, thanks for you input. Like yourself I have used many different detectors over the years and I am fortunate to have places to detect that have yield some great finds but over the last 100+ years have collected a fair amount of trash. I know good targets are there but it's gets harder to...

    What's your set up for hunting trashy area's

    Over the years I've tried to build a better mouse trap, using a smaller coil, digging all targets,using a detector with fast recovery. Always looking for new ideas as I have found it's not always the depth your machine is producing but how well it separates. I have work small areas digging all...

    hunting partners...

    I have to agree with everyone's comments, if you have done this long enough you run across everything. I was a administrator for a detecting club in my area and after securing permission to hold a hunt, contacting manufacturers for prize donations you think to yourself why bother. Some...
