    Angles question

    My answer is gonna sound weird at first... the terrain where I hunt is almost always angled or has steep angles due to my location in upstate SC... very "hilly" . so when pinpointing a target on a steep (45deg) hill I use a counter clockwise circular motion while also rotating myself if I can...

    got to use the Vanquish 540 today...

    My detecting partner has a few detectors so he brought the Vanquish 540 for me to try out this morning. just a few observations... Running in coin mode with the sensitivity down 2 notches from full I really liked the depth. it's also very easy to determine falsing from a target. I also liked the...

    old school site...

    got out with Matt again this morning for a bit, drove his Vanquish 540 for while and it was fun, then we moved on to the spot where a early 1900's school used to sit... got me a Merc and a couple wheats, the only dateable old thing I found was the lock that I ID'd as a Slaymaker-Barry lock...

    3.5 hour grid work

    Funny thing is.. I have found 90% of them in "hunted out areas" I haven't MD'd any houses built after 1970 and no modern parks.. all are at least 75 years old or older. I'm at 175 wheats, my record year was 2014 in NY when I found 375 .. my wheat totals tell me I'm working the right areas.

    Two silver day turned into a really weird three silver day!

    great report... I bought and swung the Nox 800 for about 2-3 weeks before selling it... I have been using the E-trac FBS since 2010 so yeh.. the rate of speed is a real thing.. I can cruise and cover quite a bit of ground with my E-trac but had to go slow with the Nox or miss targets which I...

    Etrac bootup issues

    I don't have an answer for your issue, I do use the power button reset once a month as habit, and do a master reset once every 6 months of use. the master reset will erase all your programs and settings to factory default, the power button reset will leave your programs but change your settings...
