    A few points to consider when posting finds & experiences on forums - ANY FORUMS!

    Over the years I have seen many posts that leave me scratching my head wondering what the person was thinking or should I say not thinking when they hit the final ENTER key. With some of the controversy that has come up on this forum and others lately, I wanted to pass on some points to...

    Customer Service says a lot about a company . . . . :thumbup:

    In an ideal world, when someone buys an item it would operate flawlessly for years and service would be a non-issue. In reality, despite the best intentions of any company, there will be some issues that come up - especially with detectors considering the environment they are operated in - and...

    Pleasantly surprised with the PiratePRO's performance today

    Finally getting some time away from work and as they say, the worst day detecting is better then the best day in the office . . . . so I made plans to do some land hunting with a friend of mine yesterday and a bit of water hunting today to get the chance to try out a new PiratePro from...

    Lost Treasure Mag Field Test V3

    If you had, you would see that when the article references that coins were recovered at depths of say "up to 5 inches deep" that will tell you what the depth limitations are. Would saying "The detector does not go deep" add anything to the article or is does wording it a different way make it...

    You can ignore all the trash and only dig the good stuff right?

    Even more often than the good stuff . . . it is a great visual when trying to get access to a site or showing legislators whet we do to the area in terms of cleaning things up Andy

    You can ignore all the trash and only dig the good stuff right?

    As several have posted, the reason I wanted to post the trash finds photos was so that newbies that are getting a pouch full of trash and not a pocket full of old coins and jewelry are not doing anything wrong . . . . the days of finding site after site where you dig nothing but all stuff are...

    You can ignore all the trash and only dig the good stuff right?

    The use of SELECTIVE discrimination in most areas is required based on the sheer volume of trash in the ground. I've hunted sites pretty much around the globe and I hate to say it, with only a few hundred years of history in terms of cities & villages, we do have way more trash in the ground...

    Is a 4x6 DD going to help ?

    I have not tried TX BOOST but then again, most of what I am finding is not overly deep but rather masked by trash . . . all 3 frequencies work fine and the small coil works great in these areas. There seem to be a number of myths floating around out there , , , , , good that the forums have...

    beach hunted today

    Was hunting the salt water beach in Myrtle Beach and when I got under the pier where the power cable went out to the fishing shack, it went wild and the screen looked like a hospital patient having cardiac arrest . . . tried a few things with no success . . . had not tried switching to single...

    The Spectra V3 in High Trash sites

    There are a few sites locally that are a real challenge to any detector due to the high amount of trash present . . . still a number of keepers but you really have to have a detector that can handle the conditions and the patience to work through the trash to find them. I've taken the Spectra...

Using the Vision at Myrtle Beach last weekend at the Treasure Expo, in the Salt Beach mode and no changes to the factory preset settings, it did detect a chain at...

    Here's Your Chance To Own the "Collectors" Edition

    . . . . I'd be surprised to find a dealer that would not take it back having never been used especially if a restocking fee was applied. Probably would not sit long in the dealers shop

    Here's Your Chance To Own the "Collectors" Edition

    And the local dealer would not take it back even with a 10% restocking fee? The guy is willing to take a $250 hit on a $1699 detector and he just bought it the day before????? Might in fact be a true story but seems far fetched that he bought it one day and had to take a beating the next . . ...
