    Problems Getting on Minelab Owners Forum

    I tried to register too as a new member (have not been a member before) and I got the same error message. Looks like their system is not functioning right now.

    Help hunting in iron

    One thing you hopefully won't run into is countless Aluminum pulltabs. I prefer TTC to TTF. I can usually tell a nail since the ferrous number will be unstable if I check it at 90 degrees. Also, I suggest you set "Trash Density" to HIGH in the Expert menu. With it set to HIGH, the E-TRAC...

    E-Trac batteries ...can a 5v wall charger hurt them??

    Work a tree !

    One more tree find story... years ago I was working a park on an early Saturday morning and got a great signal next to a large tree. I decided against digging it because a huge group of people just showed-up and they were looking at what I was doing. I went back the next morning and popped out...

    Work a tree !

    Elmy is right on! Years ago, I was detecting an old school and noticed a large pine tree near the school entrance.

    Coil cord treatment?
