    XP Deus still pulling keepers from the fairgrounds

    These are results from about 8 hours of hunting at the fairgrounds...an area that's seen plenty of activity in the last 150 years. It's available to hunt at any time, even at night! The cops on patrol are always curious to see what turns up, and I'm glad to show them the loot, especially the...

    Fairgrounds continue to give up awesome coins!

    I've been without internet since we moved in here and just figured out how to use my phone to post low enough resolution pics to this site! Have been making sporadic trips to the fairgrounds but each trip never fails to turn up something interesting! Dug a fantastic Standing Liberty quarter...

    Tried Coop's 4 kHz bottlecap program...

    Found this on YouTube a few days ago, and have hunted the fairgrounds twice using these settings. Thank you, sscindercoop for the informative youtube post! I set up my Deus in the same order as was on the video seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzjVyki6qus I set up this program in...

    Tried some "new to me" areas of the fairgrounds

    Got out for the last couple of nights and first hit the south end of the fairgrounds which I've covered fairly well, but still manage to pull keepers every time. Only hunted about an hour and a half the night before last, it was simply too sticky and muggy to hunt for any length of time. Add...

    2 hours in the backyard...

    Started off tonight in the backyard of the rental house which I visited yesterday - and things are looking promising already! I wanted to post the details of this hunt while they are still fresh. Fired up the Deus in "4K silver" program but notched 00-32 so I could still hit nickels. Started in...

    Hunted another rental house today! :smoke:

    Got out today between weather systems to a new rental house that Marty gave me the "go ahead" on which was just recently vacated on June 1. I started off in the "4K silver" program thinking it was full of trash targets, but I found my self cranking down the notch to "60" after getting some...

    Return trip to the rental house!

    Today I invited Dad and my uncle to come hunt the rental house that was so productive a couple nights back - and still managed to pull a decent pile of clad and Wheats from it. Now that I could see what I was doing as opposed to nighttime hunting, I rechecked some areas using Reactivity = 4 and...

    4 kHz vs 8 kHz vs 12 kHz on deeper silver coins

    Finally got it to publish! I used only three coins for the comparison, and the only thing changed throughout the test was operating frequency. 4 kHz is also fantastic for iron rejection vs other Deus freqs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tv3ErNrkuxo&feature=youtu.be

    :crazy: Best hunt with Deus so far!!! :crazy:

    Last night I revisited the newest rental permission and spent almost 5 hours covering about 85% of the front a back yards. After starting on the backyard a couple nights ago, I managed 3 or 4 Wheats in a relatively short time and hadn't covered a lot of area - so I knew on a return trip this...

    Newest rental permission hunt cut short by guy running from cops! :ninja:

    Went out to the newest rental house permission last night which is conveniently located exactly behind my house - all I had to do was step over the low fence and turn on and go... I've wanted to hunt this house for a long time but if there are tenants inside I simply won't do it. Even with the...

    Yesterday's relic hunt...

    I Spent 5 hours yesterday in Knoxville at the site of a little-known Civil War skirmish and was able to dig a couple nice relics. My absolute first find at this site was over 10 years ago, and it was a piece of a Hotchkiss sabot that really made the detector sing! Yesterday was no different - I...

    Last 3 hunts - silver streak and cast aluminum woes!

    I've been busy recently hunting 2 hours here, 4 hours there; but have been finding a few goodies nonetheless! First picture is from the most recent rental house permission - I used the "4K SILVER" program that has Reac =3, Silencer = 0, and Notch is 00-72 and 94-99. This knocks out everything...

    Some toasty Wheats...

    Hey guys - Haven't found any silver in a few days but still turning up Wheats pretty well here and there. Dad and I went out to the old homestead but oddly enough only found high-relief Memorials from 1962-1968. We found 15 pennies total, all of them 5-8" deep around where the old home stood...

    Get motivated!!!

    I have been using the Deus since Dec 22nd and the amount of goodies turned up has been unprecedented!!!! To be fair, I've dug a LOT of trash, but what's pictured are the better finds in less than 5 months with this machine! I still turn up silver coins less than 50 feet from my front door - the...

    2 hours at the school and 2 hours earlier today with 4 kHz

    Hello again! I've really been enjoying not being at work the past 3 days - it rained the first two days off but now the ground is perfect for deep targets! I went back the elementary school across the street and decided to try out a "4K SILVER" program just loaded onto the detector. Settings...

    More 4 kHz observations....

    So it's raining cats and dogs here and I'm off for the next 3 days - now I can devote some time to detector settings! Last night I wanted to see the difference, if any, between frequencies vs max detection depth. During this test I kept everything constant except operating frequency and the...

    Results of last week's 4kHz trial hunts...

    So I've been having some success with using 4 kHz in trashy areas, most notably at the fairgrounds site. The first two pictures is the result of the first hunt at the roller coaster area using the 4 kHz program. Didn't find any bottlecaps in the 2 hours I was there at that trip which was...

    Air testing a 4kHz program...

    Hello again - Before I get going tonight I air-tested the same coins using a 4 kHz program suggested by DukeOBass. I must say - even with the Reactivity on "2" and Silencer on "0" Deus was ultra-sensitive to the coins, and the EMI was about the same intensity as last night's test. Settings...

    Air test results from a few programs...

    Last night in lieu of hunting I decided to do some air testing on some very familiar programs and also experiemented with a couple new ones. The experimental new 12 kHz program I tried is basically the same as "12K COINS" except with reactivity at "2" instead of "3". Look at the max depth gained...

    Last couple of hunts - school and fairgrounds

    Went to the elementary school across the street from my house that's given up tons of clad in the past to try some new settings. Have been running a 12 kHz program with reactivity at 3 and silencer at 0 especially near sidewalks where coins like to be on edge. The lower silencer settings will...
