    Excalibur remote pinpoint switch replacement

    For me, holding the push button down while exploring a target, in particular when I have gloves on, is not something I liked to do. A quick flick of the switch, either way, is what I prefer. Cheers! And hope you are getting some quality detecting time in as well as time with the grandkids!

    Out on the beach let the dredging begin!

    Yes. My nearest beaches are where floating targets were set up a little bit off shore for practice prior to sending pilots off to fight WWII.

    Excalibur remote pinpoint switch replacement

    Are you using push button or toggle for your detectors? I have an old sword model that I got many years ago already modified from Mel Parker that has a push button. I much prefer a toggle switch.

    Out on the beach let the dredging begin!

    Nice. I hate it when the beach replenishment dredging is going on with the beaches I mostly hunt. It brings in layers of bits of busted up dune fencing and 50 caliber casings and bullet points from WW II. Not a lot else. Last couple of times, there were few 50 caliber stuff and a lot of busted...

    For those about to Rock…a nor’easter!

    Good luck and let us know how it goes. More often than not, I found the nor'easters pushed more sand up on the beach than they stripped. For OBN's sake, I hope the center of rotation is east of the bay and he gets some time with the water pushed out of the western side of the bay to get to...

    Seems there’s no stopping Silver & Gold!

    I had a a good feeling of the top when gold got around $1800 in 2012 and I sold some for around $1750 per ounce. I have no feel for it right now. I'm holding for now and hoping that is not a mistake. It's been a couple months since I added to the gold pile. On Sunday I got a ring that looked...

    Welcome back VaBchMax

    We actually get to the area about once a year, sometimes twice ... just have not run across many on the beaches for a long time. Wife likes to get a Shrimp Burrito at Jessy's Taqueria in Ocean View. When there we tend to hit the bay side beaches more than the ocean side. Hope to get back there...

    Welcome back VaBchMax

    Been ages since we've seen you posting here. Good to see you back. We met on the beach in Virginia Beach one time when I visited there over ten years ago!

    Two Days with the Impulse AQ

    Nice! ... the bottle caps sound wider than good targets. Took me a while to distinguish it well enough to have confidence in picking out bottle caps. I still dig most of them but can call most of them now before digging.

    First Day with the Fisher Impulse AQ

    A.I. translation: Hello. I read your review of the Axilm metal detector on the forum. Can you tell us how he measures the depth of gold or silver, a non-ferrous metal, in a salt lake in the ocean in the sea on the shore of salt sand? For example, I know for sure, I saw with my own eyes, my...

    Does anyone here remember a guy named VA beach Max, or grave digger Max from another forum ??

    RTG aluminum scoop with truck bed liner spray on paint on the handle. What I found amazing (in addition to the added grip to the handle from the bed liner spray) is that in spite of it being black, the handle did not get as hot in the sun with it sprayed as the bare aluminum does. To this day...

    I remember him too. He had posted pictures of his set up. Unfortunately, when I search for the older posts, the pictures no longer show up in the posts from years ago.

    Why I wear boots in the water

    Those are the wire part of the fencing used to build up the dunes. Every now and then they get washed away and torn up leaving all sorts of bits around.
