    (Want to buy) Andy's Book on Minelab Quattro Detector

    In some of the used book stores on line I find a copy or two that are priced higher than it was new. Here is one other that I see lower than original price. I did not look at their shipping charges. https://thegolddigger.com/products/minelab-quattro-safari-handbook-andy-sabisch?variant=47230233107

    (Want to buy) Andy's Book on Minelab Quattro Detector

    Both ebay and amazon have listings for Andy Sabisch's Quatro / Safari book. If all else fails, try one of those.

    Cz21 Problems

    A number of years back, OldBeechnut posted a comparison video of some of the times highly respected detectors for salt water use responding to a good sized gold ring in the wet salt sand. The CZ 21 in that comparison detected the ring deeper than all the others. That demonstration was one of the...

    Cz21 Problems

    He has the ground balancing correct. Note that the sensitivity is around 7 while he is ground balancing. At the beach I detect in autotune (all metal mode) and not discriminate 0 as he shows. Autotune is a little bit deeper. I've dug targets that were pretty clearly heard in autotune and when I...

    Mammoth teeth

    She is. We have jars full of it around as well as a jar of shark's teeth. Thanks for asking! Hope all is well with you and that you are recovering more good stuff from the bay and tributary waters.

    NEWBIE

    Welcome aboard! Are you metal detecting, thinking about it, have been detecting for a while or just checking things out here?

    Got a little bonus today

    Used to be that finding a waterlogged pack of cigarettes on the beach might yield a couple of dollar bills stuffed in the pack. Now it seems a cell phone case might have replaced the cigarette pack for stashing that cash.

    Mammoth teeth

    Here is one someone found yesterday:

    Got a little bonus today

    Not a lot of targets around. A little bit of junk jewelry and the usual tabs and bottle caps. Had a bit of a wide but soft signal that made me think there was a can deep in the sand in the water. I dug it even though I suspected a can. Six scoops and a cell phone comes up. Android phone, did not...

    Whoa, Bad News for Ocean City, MD., Water Hunters

    This too shall pass. People will still be all greased up with suntan lotion and throwing balls and things on the beach with the possibility of losing things. Purple flags were out today in the North Myrtle Beach and Cherry Grove areas (probably on south too but I did not venture to the south)...

    Tesla’s Groundbreaking Aluminum Ion Battery Technology would be great for detectors

    A couple of other articles; Announcement on Tesla delivering "solid state" batteries and a comparison of "solid state" and Aluminum Ion batteries: https://elonbuzz.com/elon-musk-announces-all-new-solid-state-battery-for-tesla-2025/...

    Tesla’s Groundbreaking Aluminum Ion Battery Technology would be great for detectors

    Here is one article noting: "The technical objective for low-temperature aluminum-ion cells is to maintain at least 80% of room-temperature capacity at temperatures as low as -20°C while preserving cycle life and power capabilities." and saying that is estimated to be 5 to 7 years of development...

    Tesla’s Groundbreaking Aluminum Ion Battery Technology would be great for detectors

    Currently the aluminum ion cells have shorter life. I know the video says otherwise, but the overall development information is saying shorter life. While they maintain capacity at lower temperatures than lithium ion cells; below about 15 degrees F they also drop off quickly. We have plenty of...

    Record Low Water levels in Europe equal great hunting opportunities!

    I remember a couple of properly located tropical storms pulling water out of the bay. Great opportunities to get some goodies, but timing and specific path is everything. Hope you get another great opportunity with the water sucked out of the bay!
