    Not new to detecting, but new to the Deus

    Let me start by saying that I am stationed in Mainland Japan and the mineralization, consisting largely of volcanic black soil/sand, is absolutely horrible....and that's saying something since I recently left Virginia where I thought the red clay there was challenging. As a matter for context...

    New XP Deus Owner!

    Not new to detecting - been in the hobby for about 15 years. I just added an XP Deus to my arsenal. Now I have a CTX 3030, a modified ATX and the screaming fast XP Deus. Purchased the WS5 package with the 11' and 9" coils. Had to make one modification out of the box. The tiny shaft stand on...

    Show me your ATX Mods!

    I have seen a few interesting mods out there for using Infinum coils and slinging the actual control unit - mostly weight driven ideas. I too am in the process of detaching the control unit from the telescoping shaft - that thing gets HEAVY after a while. Completely removed the stock coil from...

    Headphone Help - What to Do...

    Forgive me if this question has been thoroughly covered before - my search results were not much help. Anyway, I am new to the Garrett series of detectors - primarily use Minelab. I recently purchased an ATX, it arrived about a month ago when I was deployed and I am finally getting a chance to...

    Headphone Question

    I am new to the ATX - just received it a week or so ago - but have been a Minelab user for nearly 15 years. First thing I added to the ATX was the Garrett headphone adapter - was not a fan of the cheap headphones and strange plug configuration that came with the detector. Anyway, the only...

    Thanks Minelab - Great Customer Service!

    Shout out to Brian and customer service at Minelab! If any of you remember, about two weeks ago, I was having trouble with my stock coil and was looking to purchase another one. I received some GREAT advice from one of our fellow CTX'ers - a Vendor - who suggested I contact Minelab and advise...

    Question - ATX and Bad Mineralization

    I am a military service member and I recently moved to Mainland Japan. I have been detecting for about 15 Years and owned only Minelab detectors; Explorer, Explorer XS, Explorer II, E-Trac and now the CTX3030. In Virginia, the CTX was a great land and dry sand machine, but didn't like the salt...

    Question

    How does the Deus perform in HIGHLY mineralized soil? CTX3030 was rendered virtually useless.

    Help With Setting

    I recently had to reset my CTX3030 back to factory settings in order to fix a bug that popped up after two years - erratic signals. Anyway, I was able to restore all of my settings except the TARGET DEPTH indicator. It now reads in CENTIMETERS and I have looked everywhere in the manual and...

    At Least the CTX3030 Flies 1st Class...

    I am an active duty military member moving to Japan in about a month. I have lived in a number of countries around the world in my 22 years of service and almost every time I move, something I care about gets broken. Worse yet - something my wife cares about gets broken - but that is a...

    New to Relic Hunting -- Need CW target matrix for the CTX please!

    I have been detecting for about 15 years, but most of my time has been spent at the beach and coinshooting. I recently obtained approval from a local land owner here in VA to detect the 1500 acre farm that has been in the family for over 100 years. Its been raining a LOT here recently, so...

    Help - Civil War Relics - VID Spreadsheet?

    If anyone has one, please post a VID spreadsheet on numbers related to Civil War relics. I am a long-time detectorist, but 99% of my experience has been spent on beaches and coin shooting old homesteads. That said......I have recently received permission to hunt three plots of land along the...
