    die-hards still here grinding them out!!!

    Thanks for the replies. My brother in law owns a Nox800. I’m sure I could try his for an afternoon..but not sure how much I’ll gain in an outing or two? I’m guessing it may be tough in trying to get used to the difference in numbers and tones.. which I LOVE about my Etrac.

    die-hards still here grinding them out!!!

    If you own the Etrac... is it worth learning a whole new machine and buying the Nox? Will it do anything the Etrac cant? Other than being waterproof... what advantages does the Nox have... if any?

    15” Coiltek questions

    Thinking of getting the 15” Coiltek for my Etrac. Anyone have one? Comments on what you think about it appreciated. Also, how come they have one that has ribs in the middle and one that does not and is open in the middle. Thanks for your comments.

    Colonial Copper

    Found this copper today about 8" deep. My question is ....I cannot see any detail on this coin. I do not know if it is just too crusted over or if it is just too far gone. I'd like to try and do something to see if there is any detail left? Any suggestions on what to try. I didn't want to...

    Etrac and Sunray X-5 Coil

    Hey guys...been awhile since I posted anything. Looking for some assistance. I just purchased a Sunray X-5 coil. I have the Etrac currently set up in the "coins" mode and have been detecting my yard which was built in 1814 and it seems like no matter how many times I've been over the...

    Stock coil vs 4x8 SEF

    Generally speaking will I be better off using my stock coil vs the 4x8 SEF when searching ground that is not cluttered with trash? In other words can I expect a bit more depth out of the stock over the 4x8? Just wondering if you've found that you squeak a bit more depth out of the stock...

    4x8 SEF

    I have been using my Etrac with just the stock coil this past year, however I have a new 4x8 SEF coil I've never tried and never put it on my Etrac at all this past year. Now... I have a home built in 1814 that I've been over a hundred times as well as my buddies 1800's home. For those of you...

    How do you protect your Etrac screen/buttons from wear or scratches?

    With all the ipads out there I was wondering if putting one of those self adhesive screen protectors would be beneficial to the Etrac? Either that or one of the covers I see offered? What do you use?

    Which coil would you use for 90% of your hunting if you only had these two?

    Well guys, I only have the stock coil and I just got a brand new SEF 6x8 coil this past winter that I don't have any experience with on the Etrac. I've only used the stock so far with my Etrac for the past year. I only have one lower arm for now until I purchase another. So I have a choice...

    Big thanks to Big Boys Hobbies

    Big thanks to Big Boys Hobbies for getting me my new Garrett Pro Pointer. The one I had has experienced some "technical difficulties" that Garrett is taking care of. But I needed one fast to get back out there. Bart took good care of me and got me another one fast. Thanks Bart.

    Signal/Pinpointing question?

    So I'm at my buddies 1800's home today that I've hunted many many times now and I get signals from time to time that will give an intermittent high tone. Let me say that up front near the house there is a lot of old nails and other iron that I find. I have taken a few indians out of this area...

    Etrac and water

    So how far can the Etrac go in the water? I'm guessing right up to the connection to the housing.
