    Iron signals

    Hello all. I'm looking to upgrade from my Xterra 705 and my logical first choice is the Equinox but I'm still on the fence. The xterra is an excellent detector but I love the customization of the Equinox. I've watched a lot of videos and one thing I noticed is that it gives a good target...

    Can anyone help me with button ID?

    I found these flat buttons in the same general area that I found the eagle button. I know there was a home site nearby back in the 1800's to early 1900's. I also found a few three ringers in the same general area, as well. It's a small patch of woods between some houses in a suburban...

    Which coil for the beach?

    Headed to NC next month and I'll be bringing my Xterra 705. I've never used it at the beach and was wondering which coil/ coils work best? Ill most likely just be hunting the dry sand as i dont have a sand scoop. Would love to hear from someone who's had success on the beach. Tips, tricks...

    Large coil recommendation for T2

    Hello everybody. I'm looking for a larger coil for my T2 and was hoping someone with experience can give me some insight on the various larger coils available. The coil would be used in mineralized ground for relic hunting. Im not concerned about separation just good depth on three ringers...

    Any ideas what this disc might be?

    I found this metallic disc at my relic spot last month. Looks to be the size of a silver dollar, but lighter and thinner. It was way out in the woods in the same area I found my three ringers. It has no detail around the edges and it is pretty corroded. I know it may be nothing, but I have...

    Silver Sabre going bonkos. Miniscule crack in my coil.

    I found this super tiny crack in my coil. Would this possibly be making my detector go nuts in wet grass? It's very small. I'm pretty sure it's the original coil, too. Would Tesoro replace a coil on an old detector like this? Thanks.

    Anyone familiar with the orginial Silver Sabre? I have an issue.

    Hello everyone. I decided to dip my toes into the Tesoro waters recently with the purchase of the original Silver Sabre. I got it cheap and just wanted to see if I enjoyed detecting with Tesoros. And I have very much so far. The detector is/was fine, until this evening. I took it out to a...

    Modes question

    I was curious about the relic mode. When that is switched on, does it run in "mixed mode" audio like the DFX can? I liked the mixed mode audio, but I also like to turn that function off from time to time. I don't want to hear everything. I understand that the tones will be low for iron and...

    MXT Pro and stability

    Hello all. Having just sold my DFX I'm looking to try a new detector. I've always wanted to try out an MXT Pro and have been doing a lot of reading. I did find a page online that described the detector as rather chatty if the gain is not set minimally, as in +1 or +2. I know my DFX would go...

    Second gold ring!

    I had a chance to hunt the site of an old schoolhouse the other weekend. A modern elementary school is there now. It was slim pickins for the first couple hours I was there, so I decided to move over to the baseball field. As soonn as I put my detector to the ground and started walking, I got...

    Can anyone recommend a good beginner RC plane?

    A few years back I decided to jump head first into the hobby of RC airplanes. I spent a few hundred dollars and purchased a couple kits that I had to build myself. My girlfriend had just broken up with me so I thought this would be a great way to focus on something else. I was so happy with...

    Looking for a Sovereign

    I'd love to add a Sovereign GT to my collection. I have a DFX, which needs repair, and an X-Terra 705 which I'll never part with but there's something about the Sovereign that I really like. Although I've never actually seen one in person, I think I'd like to try one out. If anyone knows...

    X-Terra and filters

    I was curious to know how many filters the X-terra 705 runs on. Does anyone know? My DFX, which is an analog machine, runs from a choice of 2-6 ground filters. I was wondering, since the X-Terra is a digital machine, does it even have preset filters built in? Thanks in advance.

    Northern VA

    Hello everybody. Relative newbie to metal detecting here and love getting out to see what's in the ground. I live in Northern Virginia where spots are hard to find. I'm always looking for new people to meet up with and find new spots top check out. I also do a lot of night detecting due to...

    No backlight

    I hear that the Safari does not have a backlight. What's the reason for not putting one in the detector? All the high end Minelabs have them. Even my X-Terra 705 has one. One would imagine that a detector with the name "Safari", in which you think of adventure, would come with the capability...
