    Finally got out with the 6" dd.

    I have to say that I am very impressed with the 6" dd coil. Hunted a yard that was loaded with brass and copper plumbing parts, car parts, pieces of aluminum antenna, and you name it, it was in there. Had the 70 in 4 tone, sensitivity at 28, no discrimination. The machine was very stable. The...

    A question for Digger.

    What kind of depth on coins are you getting with the 70? I live in Lincoln, Nebraska and I'm thinking your from Iowa. I would think the ground conditions would be comparable. How deep does the audio and visual id with consistency? I have the standard medium and the low frequency coils along...

    Ever use a QXT Pro?

    What did you think of it? Are there many coils that will work on it? Have seen a few for sale. Seems to have some nice features. Thanks.

    TID or monotone?

    Went out hunting today with the 70 set at monotone and a modified coin pattern. I tried to set it up like my old whites unit for some nice relaxing coin hunting. I noticed that in monotone, good targets didn't seem to hit as hard and clear as when using 3 or 4 tones. Didn't come upon anything...

    A couple of questions about GBing and tracking.

    What is the best way to ground balance in very trashy areas. I hunted a spot over the weekend that I couldn't find a clean area. I set the gb to a value that is common to this area. I also tried tracking. As I understand it, tracking keeps the gb updated as you hunt. If this is so, wouldn't the...

    A question about notching.

    Let me know if I got this right. Gain increases below 6 and above 20 discrimination. If I notch out a segment or two above or below 6 and 20, does it increase the gain too? Seems like my machine gets more chattery when I use notching.

    Any Quantum users out there?

    I would like to hear your thoughts on how it performs like depth and stability. I read the review at Lost Treasure site but would like to hear from an average Joe like me. I hunt in mild soil for old and new coins. Thanks for any replies.

    Need some advice on modern trash.

    I would like to hear how you guys are setting up your machines in city parks and yards where there is a ton of tabs, foil and bottle caps. I know this thing is killer in old sites with iron nails and the like, but I sure have struggled in the areas mentioned above. Thanks.

    X-70 Target Separation.

    Got a few hunts under my belt with the 70 now. I am impressed with the speed at which it will detect co-located targets and ID them correctly. I have the 7.5 and 3.o concentric coils. Can't wait to get my hands on an elliptical DD to see how it works. I don't know how many coils are available...

    Got a couple coil questions.

    I bought a x-70 with a 7.5 and a 3.0 kHz coil. I hunt for old coins around houses, in parks and old school houses most of the time. Here in Nebraska the soil don't have much mineralization. First question is, should I keep the 3kHz coil or sell it and get a 5x10 DD coil. I'm not sure what the...

    Any suggestions on a good lightweight detector that isn't bothered by other detectors? Thanks for any help.
