    Update on my best ATX Find

    I found this 14k gold wedding set at the Huntington Beach, CA, Dog Beach a week after Hurricane Marie's high swells ripped open the beach in September. Today, I took the ring to a local jeweler in Seal Beach, CA, for an expert opinion about the ring. The Jeweler said the wedding band portion...

    My best ATX find after hurricane erosion

    - Was on the beach at 4:30AM this morning and found an area of major erosion. It was non-stop scooping for three hours down to 16" until I couldn't scoop no more.

    Mixed Bag of ATX Finds in Wet Sand & Shallow Water

    I took a break from home improvement projects to hit the early morning low tide for a couple hours this morning at the Dog Beach at Long Beach, CA. I was mostly scanning at the low tide mark in the wet sand and in a few inches of water. This was the first time I've had the ATX out in about a...

    Erosion Coin Field Harvest with ATX

    Hi All ... Went down the coast early this morning before low tide looking for some virgin sand that hasn't been sanded over after the storm erosion from several weeks ago. I spent the first 1.5 hours zigzagging up and down the slope looking for any signs of concentrations of targets. I finally...

    Several ATX Hunts in Wet Sand & Water

    I usually post my finds on another forum, but I wanted to show ATX users how much the ATX loves lead found very deep (18"+). Items on the left (less most trash) are from several wet sand and water hunts the past few days with the ATX. I hit several different beaches, including a saltwater bay...

    Coil Cover! Too late for my coil :)

    Today was the first time I've looked closely at the bottom of my ATX coil in quite a while. The photo below does not do the scrapes and scratches justice :) It would have been nice to have the proper beach/surf coil cover right from the get go. I do have the serving tray sand collector that...

    ATX & At Pro - Gold & Silver Morning

    Took a break from detecting Long Beach, so I loaded up the equipment and the dog and went to Sunset Beach, CA, and arrived at 5:30AM. Low tide was at 6:00, even though it was a two foot high morning low tide. I started with the ATX on the sloop of the beach by the water line, could not get to...

    My Three Complaints with the ATX

    - This is an ATX forum, so you need to hear all points of view. Not just candy coated ones. Through my career I have had to work closely with many engineering departments. One thing I have learned about engineers is that most are conceptually book smart and come from a belief that "it looked...

    ATX Finds It's First Silver Coin in Dry Hard Packed Sand

    - YESTERDAY afternoon I met up with a forum member DrJoePrime to show me the ropes on using a PI machine in the surf at Long Beach, CA. This was my first go of the ATX in the surf line as the tide was going out. That mineralized sand down in the surf line in Long Beach is like road tar mixed...

    ATX Finds Silver First Time Out On Beach & AT Pro vs ATX on Gold & Silver

    - The ATX arrived at my doorstep at 11:30 today, 12/04/13. It was on the beach by noon to check it out and run a couple of tests. I went to Long Beach, CA, just parked in the back of the beach to find an open area to run the tests. I was in an area of the beach that would be unfriendly to a...
