    Goldmaster II's bringing high price

    :usmc: Had watched four Gold Master II's up for auction at E-Bay and could not believe what I saw. As best I can tell, the GM-II was introduced in about 1990 so makes them about 20 years old. I have not found what the retail on them was new but a GM V-Sat went I think for about $499 from...

    Answer to question on Lead and Gold detection comparison

    :usmc: Here is an answer to a question I had recently submitted to "Ask an Expert" on the BH web page. I basically asked if lead at about the same weight as a Gold nugget, picker, or flake, would make for a good comparison and test or practice piece. In my question, I also asked if BH/First...

    Ever gave thought to detecting a pile of street sweepings?

    :usmc: For some, this may be a possibility. Have you ever watched where a street sweeper machine dumps the "Fines" and other debris when the hopper is full?

    Pioneer 505 searched some bedrock on the river today

    :usmc: The weather was cloudy, cold, and windy with a few flakes trying to fall here in the canyon. I decided to try and get out to check some bedrock and it's pockets and cracks with my 505 and an 8" coil. This bedrock comes under many feet of water during the runoff season and after the water...

    Bounty Hunter's and Gram and 1/2 Gram of Gold

    :usmc: Here is an interesting read from an Australian web site. Have not come across anything like this information here in the States or by First Texas/Bounty Hunter but maybe it will be helpful to others seeking gold nuggets. As best I understand, my Pioneer 505 is the equivalent of the Sharp...

    MD's operating in outdoor temperatures

    :usmc: There seems to be differences on operating a metal detector in cold temperatures so I did a little looking around. On page 15 of the BH Pioneer 505 Manual under "Temperature Change," it simply indicates a need to re-tune when moving from one temperature to another or as they change...
