    Any other Garrett 24k users here using it for Gold?

    Smigo, do you notice any coil knock sensitivity with the Garrett version? I see that with my 10" coil in my Whites model. I don't see it with the 6" coil, or the 14". Jim

    Any other Garrett 24k users here using it for Gold?

    Ya know, I'm just getting into the 2-box prospecting. I got a great deal on an Arc-Geo data logger, and it got me thinking about all this. I'm always trying to think outside the box. So, it made me wonder if I've been approaching the whole nugget thing from the wrong perspective. Instead of...

    Any other Garrett 24k users here using it for Gold?

    Yeah...me too. Not sure it matters who is, or isn't. I use a GM3, and TDI SL, too. And sometimes a 2 box, like the Discovery TF1200, or 900, or TM808. Lots of ways to skin the prospecting cat. Jim

    Coot 4x4 ATV, Polaris 325 Magnum 4x4 4 wheeler, and Honda 250 Recon 2 x4....

    Just found out progress is running us over, so we're going to sell our place and downsize. Great price on 2 4-wheelers my ' 99 Polaris 325 Magnum, and the wife's 250 Honda Recon. Both excellent condition, and only moderately used..mostly around the place for chores. I'll take the first $2500 for...

    (Want to buy) WTB Whites TM-808

    How much do you want for it? Don't know much about them, but supposed to be similar to the TM-808, so might work. Jim

    What Backpack do you use

    I've used, for almost 40 years, an Alice pack, and lately on a Molle frame. Never let me down, and carries a huge amount of gear. That MOLLE frame is the most comfortable frame I've ever used. Jim

    Whites tdi depth while prospecting for gold

    Bobby, I'd say you've thought it out pretty good. I've been very conservative about money, all my life, too. And like you, I'm nearing 75 myself, so might as well live a little...LOL. I'm still not splurging on detectors, though. You'll like that Sadie. Hope you make some good finds, and will...

    Whites tdi depth while prospecting for gold

    Get the Sadie. I like the 8 x 11 for general work, but the Sadie is more sensitive. If you can't afford a Sadie, and given that some people don't like the dual-field coils, in my testing the Whites 7 1/2" DF is a very near-equal to the Sadie on tiny gold. Jim

    Whites tdi depth while prospecting for gold

    To wind the coils, you need to balance the correct inductance and the correct DC resistance. To do that, you need to look up the wire size and resistance charts on the 'net. Then do a search on inductance, and that should get you to some formulas for inductance vs number of turns of wire. You...
