    Banning of metal detecting

    Cap. Kirk you are right. Armadillo's took over e. central Georgia years ago. They are a real pest. Like the skunk I accidentally ran over at my front entrance. Bad mistake on my part.

    Disc at 6.8 on some programs…why so specific? Why not 7?

    Digdog thanks for the response. I really enjoyed the Jersey area I lived in. Those northerners were down right nice to us southerners. Very fine and gracious people. I did meet one young lady that truly believed we still had slaves in the south. She was dumb as a doughnut hole but she was a...

    My second time out with the Legend.

    Steve, what a nice way to start off with a new detector. Rings are rare around this area in the farm fields. Way-to-go!

    Disc at 6.8 on some programs…why so specific? Why not 7?

    Digdog, where do you live in N.J.? You sound a little close to my age but I think only God may be older. I was stationed in Lakehurst in '59, '60 and '61. Lived near Seaside Heights, then Toms River. I was an airship driver. Blimps!. They closed down all airship squadrons in Nov. '61. I was in...

    Coil charging clip

    I really like the bevel idea. It took me awhile to realize there is only one way it fits the coil. I tried jamming the clip the first time. I learn fast------well, once in a while. I bought the "other" clip a a backup. Rarely use it though.

    Another one for the showcase

    Great find! I've found the firing system in various pieces but never like yours.

    Finally the first hunt of the yr... after 25+yrs of doing this, I commit the biggest rookie mistake...

    Mark, I'm still making dumb mistakes after 49 years of hunting. Yesterday I drove my pickup to a field, got out and stepped right on top of a BIG fire ant mound. At that moment I think I just invented about 3 or 4 new dances. I"ve done this a few times after hitting a target and never look...

    How many remember the very first detector you started the hobby with and how long ago ??

    Mine was a White's bought in June 1974 at Cook's Appliance Repair in Albany, Georgia. Can't remember the model number. I think most towns in America had a White's dealer back then. They were a great company to do business with. Ron, that's a funny story about the Jetco coils. Oh yes, I just...

    Getting ready to move to Seviervelle TNN in June-July

    Sure wish I could help but can't. I was there last summer and have never seen so many cars and people for one area. I was going to the museum but could not pull over. I definitely was in the wrong lane. I felt like I was in a NASCAR race. I truly hope you have a great time there esp. after...

    4 hours in the field for this??

    I've found a few seated dimes on the farm here. What's strange is they all look like they were dropped a few days after being minted. These fields have been planted every year, I think, since before "The War Between the States". You would think fertilizer, etc. would have done a job on them but...

    Picked up 1000 wheaties in a bank sack, talk to the old timers at the coffee shop

    Arkansas, I know how you feel about your dad. I lost mine when he was 54 yrs. old. Industrial accident in Brunswick, Ga. and I was 30. It's been 56 years years now. I still miss him so much. He was one of "The Greatest Generation". WW2 veteran.

    ID numbers read 30 points higher on my XP than my mxt????

    Tony, you are right. Different company, different engineers, different country, different age. Kind of like comparing my old '50 Ford to my '66 GTO.

    F/S New Minelab EQX06 coil

    Don, I made a deal so I'll abide by it but why do you have to get the MO before I get the coil? Is that more important than me receiving the product? Mutual trust abides in any transaction unless one party has doubts about the other party's ability to fulfill his obligation. Your M.O will...
