    Working my keester off - detectors gotta go!

    Hey all! Been real busy with no sign of let up. In fact, I expect lots more to come through the summer. None of that economic gloom you hear about on the news with my company. :) The bad side of this is that detecting time has been curtailed. So, I'm making some decisions based on this. Ace...

    Ace 250 HEADPHONE MODIFICATION

    I always thought the Garrett folks had gone a little wacky with the Ace 250 headphone mount. All the effort they put into the Ace, and they stick the jack on the offside rear. What were they thinking!? So to remedy the situation I came up with my Ace mod, moving the headphone jack where it...

    THE GOLDEN TAKES 1ST PLACE... 'Guess I'm the Winner!! :super:

    Got back to the high school today for an hour or so. The GOLDEN was ready to go, as it was still packed from yesterday's road trip to N. Carolina. Lori's mom had her 80th birthday, in High Point, NC and we toodled on up to partake and celebrate. I toted the Golden along on the trip - just in...

    F70 Uncovers Benchmark Relics - - -

    There is a large, undeveloped field area near my house that I have suspected for some time might hold a few good relics. 100 yards away, Barber coins and trade tokens have turned up, so the chance seems to exist. To date, this theory remains just that - a theory. I have yet to uncover anything...

    F70 OWNERS - Hear Ye!

    Im curious to know the sorts of headphones you F70 swingers are using with your unit. I've tried every one I have in STOCK and, across the board, I find the F70 has a bit of a weak audio output. Contrast it with one of my favorite audio outputs, as found on the the 1236-X2, and you'll see what I...

    2008 Wind Up Pics... Pt II

    Okay then, we're on to Part II of the Year in Review, 2008. AS I said in the first part, I didn't do a lot of detecting n 2008. From around February to mid September, I layed off. Between work and a general malaise over the whole business, I didn't pick up a detector even once. They simply hung...

    Some 2008 Wind Up Pics.... Pt. I

    Well, it's finally passed. 2008 is behind us. Some will say good riddance and if you are under 70, you will probably have real reason to dislike 2008. With some of the worst economic failures in 60 years, and more, there is good reason. But metal detecting goes on. The older, yet-undiscovered...

    Old Year Ends with a NITRO! :yikes:

    Well today was it, the last detecting day of 2008. I wound it up with a hunt at the local high school. I've been hammering it since Saturday, to add to my 2008 final coin count. I swore I wouldn't go anywhere else until 2009 got here. The F70 performed well, a very different beast than before...

    High School Junk - an analysis

    No need reminding any of you about my commitment to pound the local high school as part of my 2008 Wrap Up Campaign. Lets suffice it to say I went back for another few hours today. The Golden purred along as it should, with a new battery beeping reassuringly each time I tested it. There was...

    More High School Hi-jinx

    As promised, I'm giving the high school a "good working over" as the year winds out. Since my detecting compadre, Hal, can't stand foil ball and pull tab hunting, I'm toughing it out alone. :) Today I swung the Golden again. I thought I might push it a little and so ran the SENS and THRESH...

    PRE-EMPTIVE CLAD TOTAL for 2008

    I tumbled and rolled all the clad I had in my treasure box this weekend. I didn't detect for most of this year, for various reasons... mostly I had lost interest while pursuing something else. I pretty much quit around the beginning of the year, and then picked it back up in mid September. So...

    Hammering the High School

    I have made it my mission, recently, to pound a certain area of the local high school into submission. I have hunted all over this school during the last 20 years and have seen many changes. In that time, though, I have never really concentrated on this section. I don't know why, to be honest...

    Golden compared against another - -

    - - I went to the high school again today, to continue pounding one particular area of the grounds. I just started hitting it, twice in the last 4 days. So far I have pulled about $8 in change for about four hours effort. I have started calling it the "Piggy Bank," due to it's payout and gently...

    HOW TO: Protect Your Detector for Pennies.

    We detectorists are an interesting lot. We happily spend hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on our equipment - and then just as happily roll it in the dirt and muck of fields and woods in search of our treasures. Yet such treatment does little to maintain the material condition of our gear...

    How To Detect Behind Yourself And Increase Your Finds!

    It sounds contradictory, doesn't it? I mean, how can you detect behind yourself and still increase your finds? Well, you most certainly can, and the the crux of it is dead simple. The work involved isn't too complicated, and is easy to do. Luckily, most of it can be done when you can't...
