    Vacant lots hunt

    Looking at old aerial views of different sections I found an old section that once had houses, and now there is only a few left. By the online records the vacant lots are FEMA owned and since FEMA is part of the govt. and our govt. is elected officials... I went to hunt "our" land.:thumbup...

    A few coins found this morning

    Got out to a park area that has lots of bottlecaps. I had read on here about a "Stomp" method after locating a iffy or bottlecap target. You stomp on the ground after your first scan and if the target now reads as a coin you dig it up. I stomped on over 30 targets, and not a one changed...

    Got out this morning with my M6 and 6X10 coil to an old area that used to have an old farm house on it ( 1922 Topo map) and part of the grounds are now in a park area. Setting the Disc to 9 o'clock and turning the Sens up as high as possible without falsing, I was getting some nice signals. The...

    Last 3 times hunting

    Got to go out and hunt this past week and only found 1 silver coin but it was a heart thumper. The schoolyard I found this dime in used to be an old farm ranch in the late 1800's to early 1940's and then a housing subdivision sprung up, and the school was built in 1958. It was my grade school...

    "... I got it all !"..... part 2

    Went back to the schoolyard this morning with my IDX and 5.3 Bullseye coil. Last week the "Ace" had left me some clad, a JFK half and 4 silver dimes on his 4 years of detecting the same area. ( See my post.... "Don't bother...I got it all !!..") As I had my IDX, I wanted to cherry pick and...

    XLT/IDX coil option

    I also posted this in the XLT section. Everyone who uses the White's XLT/ XL-Pro, IDX, IDX Pro, Sierra Madre, 5900 type detectors should email White's and ask when they will make the 6X10DD coil for these detectors. If they can make the 4X6 for the XLT/IDX line, the DFX/MXT/M6 line and the...

    Tot lot finds this morning

    After a few days of off and on rain, we finally have clear skies. Since the place I really wanted to detect looks like a muddy murky swamp area, I decide to hit a few tot lots to get in some digging...any kind of digging is better than none. Since I was just going clad hunting I only took my...
