    Ground Balancing the Anfibio

    Dean, pump the coil until it beeps once. It will keep beeping if you keep pumping it.

    WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE COIN DESIGN ?

    I have found most all of the coins from the 1800's to present, but without a doubt, in my personal opinion, the Mercury dime is the prettiest designed coin. Not at all rare, but pretty non the less.

    AT Max price

    I have tried to sell three different detectors in the last couple of years and could not sell them for any price close to being reasonable. I believe that this all started when the Nox came out. The market got flooded with used detectors and buyers were in their glory. Like new used detectors...

    Etrac Still Viable?

    I had a cool morning so I took the "old" Etrac to my heavily hunted park. I was not expecting much, but was hoping for at least a wheatie or two. Recently, I get skunked at this park at least one out of three times. The glory days are long gone. The first two coins were old, green wheats that...

    All that glitters is not gold...or silver.

    Jim, I tell my wife that people who metal detect are trained to look down. She always laughs at me for constantly looking down for money. I bet she wouldn't laugh at you!

    GTI 2500

    As most have said "there are better detectors for far less money. But, you never said if you were buying used or new. If you can get the 2500 for a great deal, I would buy it. They are an excellent coin detector, but not in trashy sites. I would chose an Equinox, Legend, or Apex in no particular...

    New Garrett Release Coming Very Soon

    Monte, I whole heartedly agree. I would much prefer accuracy over raw depth. I would hope for a "juiced up" Apex for Garrett's next release.

    Does anyone know of / or recall a comprehensive operators book for a Whites....

    Carl, my bad. I can't believe I missed the detector model mentioned!

    Does anyone know of / or recall a comprehensive operators book for a Whites....

    Mark, I don't know if this is what you are looking for, but a fellow named Eric Foster wrote a very detailed DFX and MXT books. Very tech oriented and somewhat hard for me to understand. "Digging Deeper with DFX" and "MXT Edge"

    Two Times Out with Repaired Etrac

    I got my Etrac back from the repair center a week ago and I have used it twice for a total of four hours. First, it is great to have it back functioning like new and I have so much confidence in it, that it would be hard to use another detector. Last Tuesday I only hunted for less than two hours...

    Got Etrac Back From Repair

    Well, it took a month to get my Etrac repaired, but all seems good now. When the tech finally got my Etrac in his hands, you could not ask for a better experience. He kept me informed daily and was not ready to send it back until he was sure it was functioning correctly. Good news was no...

    Multi Kruzer or Anfibio

    I believe the Anfibio Multi is deeper, but it could just be the 11 inch coil on the Anfibio. I have an interesting tidbit about the Impact. I put a 11 inch Anfibio style coil on the Impact and I immediately found a 10 inch deep Walker half and a similar depth mercury dime. Both came from heavily...

    Out With The AT Pro Coin Shooting. Ordered A New Coil For the APEX

    John, congratulations on your semi-retirement. I put the 8.5x11 (same size as stock AT Pro) coil on my Apex and it is nearly the perfect coil. Garrett sure does have their coil technology down pat. No reason for any after-market coils.

    Broke Etrac

    I did and they will call me with an estimate. They have had the Etrac for over two weeks. I suppose they work on warranty issues before anything else. Anxiously waiting. I know it will not be cheap.

    Interesting find from a couple days ago....

    Felix, very nice peice with a lot more detail than meets the eye.

    Broke Etrac

    Last winter I started looking for what I consider the best coin detector I have ever used, the Etrac. I finally found a low use, mint condition Etrac from one of the forum sponsors. I could not wait for spring and I was not disappointed. I immediately started finding silver and wheat pennies...

    How’s everyones detecting with high gas prices?

    Mark, I use to go detecting for a couple of hours when I could squeeze a hunt in, but now, I plan for perfect weather and plenty of time. My wife does not understand why I would drive 40 miles round trip to find 50 cents. I tell her it is cheaper than a therapy session.

    Legend scores yet again!

    Ron, that was a terrific find. A Barber spill like yours if a "once in a lifetime" find. At this point, I would be happy with just one Barber dime. You are getting the Legend dialed in and we all look forward to your future finds with it.

    Does running single freq draw more power?

    I don't have a Legend, but I have an Anfibio Multi. My battery life is just about cut in half when running 5khz. I hunt a similar spot to where you had your big day and there are spots at my place where you can only use the low frequency because of emi. I cannot use my higher frequencies at this...

    Tooth Cap

    I found two a few feet apart many years ago with a Fisher F75. Found them at a local fairgrounds. Wondered why two and speculated that maybe a caramel apple stand was there. At any rate, they are a rare find congratulations.
