    Check SF Craigslist - if it's for real it's a steal at$1k. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/spo/1446297851.html

    Throw the Rolexes Back

    Be careful what you wish for: Just paid $800 to get my wife's Rolex serviced. OK it's been 12 years and it was sort of overdue - but still. My advice - unless they're the solid gold with diamonds, just toss them back!! That's what I do now. LOL

    First Vision beach GOLD and an explanation of the Analyze Screen (maybe)?

    All this data which the V# puts out there is a real first in MD history as far as I can see. I'm reminded of a cartoon on the bulletin board at the U of Texas when I was pretending that I wanted to be an Archaeologist about 30 years age. Two guys in pith helmets are looking at a wall panel of...

    First Vision beach GOLD and an explanation of the Analyze Screen (maybe)?

    I guess it's just me, but I don't see the pattern. Referring to the upper right, you talk about the red and green being "off the beam". What does that mean? Please help.

    Virginia Beach the Eazy Way

    OK I must admit first that I know absolutely nothing about how to hunt Virginia Beach efficiently or effectively, I think I have some ideas, howerver, about how to hunt it enjoyably. First, park at the Hilton's garage on 31st street, it's $7 for a day. Then hunt as much as you want. When...

    Is it the same when you air test using the Beach Program?

    Eclipse 5.3 RX Gain Limit

    I got a good deal on one of these - not "V rated" - It is marked "6 X" and "0468" It works well but I can't use RX Gain above 10 or it goes into a continuous looud deep pitched buzz. Is this because it's not a V series coil or is it defective? Also, it air tests 6" on a clad dime vs 10" for...

    Bigfoot Beach Gold?

    I just picked up my new/old Bigfoot coil from the PO. One of the things I want to try with it is finding gold "microjewelry" at the beach. Virginia Beach is about 250 acres of sand which is heavily sanded-in and targets of all kinds are surprisingly few. The low tide surf zone "the lane" is...

    V3 and edge coins

    Bjorn, Bad news I'm afraid - no trip to Norway for me this year. Darn job has made a mess of my summer - but I guess I'd better be glad to have one. Please save me a bronze dagger for next year!!!

    Pistol Pointer

    Detector Pro's new pistol pointer bears an interesting resemblance to their PI detector. It might be possible to deconstruct it and build a proper PI detector from it. By the time you bought all the bits needed, it would no doubt be impractical, but if you had a junk box plus the will to make...

    Anyone finding gold in parks full of pulltabs?

    Gold jewelry is highly variable in composition and therefore VDI response - that's a given. Pull tabs are manufactured items which will probably cluster into a few well defined VDI ranges. If you can "pass" some of these types (even allowing that you will miss any gold which happens to give the...

    Analyze & SpectraGraph Experiences

    Monte, Just to clarify - the 5.3 Eclipse is in fact a 6.5 inch concentric coil - is that right? If so, any idea why they named it 5.3?

    3 Frequencies, Why Not 28?

    Thanks Carl, I poke'd around and tried to find where I had first "poached" the "detector price index" post from - and couldn't find it, but I seem to remember it was yours from somewhere. The V3 may prove to be a tool which can do things not possible before - deeper silver - microjewelry in...

    3 Frequencies, Why Not 28?

    Thanks for the thoughtful response. You cite real data but I'm not sure it is entirely applicable. I think your last sentence made my case. As far as I know, Moore's law applies to CPU's and not much else. For example, in the real world (other than the USA) cell phones are mostly not tied...

    Analyze & SpectraGraph Experiences

    I am just taking "baby steps" so far with my V3, but I find the analyze screen real helpful to give info on the size of the target. As far as a smaller coil, I got a 5.3 and lower rod for $115 shipped off the classifieds here in FM and am impressed with how much higher I can run the V3...

    3 Frequencies, Why Not 28?

    I posted this on the White's Forum here at FM a while back - it's not my own work. From another forum, but I'm pretty sure the author would be OK with my posting it - a lot of what you are seeing in these prices is just the effect of inflation. Since 1915 or thereabouts, prices have doubled...

    Does the new white's

    Low-Boy You have truly had the last word!! All our talking about the machine and what it does or doesn't do is pointless without getting out and doing it! Sorry again for my earlier impatient replies, you have trumped it all with your invitation. Too bad for me that I'm on the wrong side...
