    Anyway to make Findmall load faster?

    Dang... I didn't know they made dial up anymore. Maybe you could get a mobile 3G or 4G USB adapter. Anyway, if you can figure out how to make it not load pictures it should go faster. Go to System>advanced>performance>settings>adjust for best performance. Under advanced select "programs" on...

    That is good advice. Bury (or better still) find a coin at what you consider to be the normal depth you would expect to be finding targets. Use your regular swing speed because you will usually default to it while hunting. So... swing over the target and adjust the ground filter until you get...

    Hot weather caused my screen to fade

    I have thought about this and I wonder... if your vehicle gets really hot would it help to lay one of those foil covered windshield thingies over your detectors or get a "frozen food bag" from the grocery store and slip it over your coil... still I don't see any way a black coil can get hotter...

    Hot weather caused my screen to fade

    I hang a light colored cap over the pods of any detectors I carry in my truck mostly so they don't bump each other or something else and get marred. I always have several detectors in the back seat... never had a bit of a problem either but I drive and extended cab F-150 with heavily tinted...

    I chased a MDer OFF MY BEACH....................

    Man...!!!! There is nothing that gets me upset quicker than some idiot leaving holes and trash in a park... what the he77 is so hard about taking the time to, at the very least, using your foot to flip the da$% plug back over and step on it.... and are some hunters too "cool" to wear an apron or...

    I chased a MDer OFF MY BEACH....................

    No Ferd, I agree about the trash. I have ZERO tolerance for trash left either in the hole or out on the ground/beach and I have no tolerance for people leaving holes unless they are on the hardpan and about to be filled back in by the surf... even then one can kick a little sand back in the...

    Hot weather caused my screen to fade

    I hunt in some pretty darn hot weather but I never use a cover for the box or for the pod. The cover on the pod may actually be making it hotter. The pod needs no cover even in the rain and you can get a screen cover replacement cheap from White's... or you can get a pack of Palm screen...

    Frustrated V-3 swinger

    I'd suggest that if you don't already have one, get yourself another detector to use when you get frustrated. That really helps me to continue with a detector that frustrates me. I hunt three or four days a week usually and I will start out with whatever detector it is that I am trying to learn...

    Swing speed with the Omega?

    How fast or slow do you think the optimal swing speed is for the Omega? The T2/F75 tends to work better the faster you swing it. The LTDs in BP mode work better if you swing a lot slower and in CL mode they work better if you swing really slow. The Omega seems to workd well with a regular...

    Omega breaks my silver drought....

    I've been away, busy, and haven't had time to take pics but Thursday AM I went to a local churchyard that I have hunted off and on for over a year. I had about an hour nad a half to hunt and one ofmy first fiunds of the hunt was a pristine 1964 Rosie. One ofmy last finds of the hunt was a 1908...

    A little nickel help please....

    I think i'll spend some time switching to 22.5 and 2.5 non-normalized when I get some of these targets. Maybe I should save some of these nickel imposters and bury them shallow with an assortment of nickels and try the different frequencies non-normalized... maybe there will be something...

    Shoot, Close Shave with Large Silver

    Way to go Larry!!! There is no place like a good old yard. I have made my best finds ever in old yards or enpty lots. Very nice indeed, sometimes don't you wonder why that big old silver coin was still there? Do you wonder how you missed it yourself in the past.... I wonder that sometimes...

    A little nickel help please....

    First let me be the first to admit that I spread my time too thinly between detectors... but it is what it is, I like detectors as much as I like detecting so... Yesterday I had about 45 minutes in a small front yard i've never hunted. I was trying out the new Omega-8000 I got. I dug a few...
