    Coil ears

    Don't keep the nut very tight as I like it to be quite loose as I do a lot of detecting on rocks and it will move when I put it down for the 30 time on the day. Tried an iron infected site yesterday as I was packing up, using the slowest scan ever I was finding coins and fishing leads next to...

    First silver

    I also had my first silver with my new 800, it was a George V shilling dated 1922 on my local beach.

    39-40

    Over the past couple of days I have had 39-40 signals on my 800 using beach 2 on one of my local beaches, they were very deep and I was not able to get down to them before the hole filled in again. Any ideas on what they could be. Thanks in advance

    At last I found my old camera that takes good close ups.

    Thanks for that. Many years ago I put up finds values and every time the amounts were deleted!!

    The Friend Who Finds It All

    I have the same problem. A friend of mine goes out down the beach and finds Roman gold rings and a coin that the coin dealer Spinks said didn't exist and I find mostly fishing weights, hundreds of kg of the stuff but just found a gold ring last week, so things may be looking up

    At last I found my old camera that takes good close ups.

    It weighs 6grm and is 9kt. You could check the value from the Birmingham gold company in the UK, that is the one I use.

    Screen Protectors

    This is what I use in the UK. A lot of my detecting is done near rocks so needs extra protection.

    Meter or not

    After using the 800 a few times I have found that I am using display to decide what not to dig as opposed to what to dig or I would be digging loads of copper coins because one of my beaches seems to have masses of copper on it and as I am now ancient I don't get tires as soon.

    Another practice day!!

    Low tide was early today but decided to give it a couple of hours, Sand has started to come back but still a couple of tracks caused by the tides, after checking across the beach with few clear signal for some reason I change to beach 2, a few £1 coins later I had a good signal and using my...

    Not my day!!

    The squalls were very short about five mins so I just stopped put my detector and spade away from me until the sun came out again. On another note a person in the village about 100 yards away from our house was hit by lightning but is OK so nowhere is safe. Shall be going to the beach in a...

    Not my day!!

    Thought I would go down the beach for a couple of hours yesterday for a bit more practice with my Nox. Started well with a few coins and then the heavens opened, thunder and lightning very near plus cloud bursts and hail but carried on as I was wearing my HH jacket and waders as usual but the...

    Changing settings.

    Have just found a set of new settings for beach use for my new nox. If I change the settings do I have to save them or will I just have to press the button on the right side of the control box. Thanks in advance.

    Hand pain caused by the Equinox’s grip

    Went out for a few hours the other day down the beach, no problems with wrist pain. I use a harness just to keep the nox out of the rocks but I noticed that I do not grip the handle and just hold it loose with my thumb resting on the right of control box. May be of help. By the way I was 71...

    Question?

    Does anyone know what the mark 20TV on a Gold ring mean as I cannot find any reference to it. Thanks in advance.

    Gold ring!!!

    This is the ring that I found earlier in the week but as the tides have been very long I have been out most days. The beach it was found on is very hard to detect because of the tons and tons of scrap metal that was dumped there before the tourists started to come to Cornwall. By the harbour is...

    Factory settings for 800

    Went to one of my winter beaches yesterday which is infected with masses of scrap iron and large amounts of fishing weights. As my SE pro died after 10 years I went for Nox 800. Using basic factory settings to detect at low water as I usually pick up lost fishing tackle where the line is still...
