    17 Wheat

    I think my Etrac is doing really good now that I have got this Manual Sensitivity thing figured out. I had a little time this afternoon and found this 17 Wheat a tad over 8" using an 8" Sunray Coil. I was running only about 16 Sensitivity which was as high as I could run but it did the job. I...

    Good SLQ

    Found this today in a Vacant lot in Waco TX For you Etrac users it gave a 10-47 running Manual at only 15 Sensativity. Ground was terrible. About 6" down in Gravel

    Etrac Settings Sensitivity figured out

    I am not new to my Etrac but I felt like I did not have this Sensitivity thing figured out for sure and I was right. I did an Air Test and found that simply changing from Auto to manual gained 2" on a Silver Dime. I did find that I was about as hot on Sensitivity as I could go using Auto. I knew...

    TC Metal Detectors

    I ordered a Sunray Finds Pouch from TC Metal detectors. I don't think they make these anymore. Did I mess up?

    Hot Etrac

    It was cold today but my Etrac was hot. I was finding Wheats way down deep. This a a picture of a Wheat I found at the bottom of this hole with my Coiltek 10X5 on the Etrac. I am running Auto +3. Crushed Screwcaps were really messing with me. Whoever lived at this House must have thrown them all...

    Whats up with this Wheat

    Look at this close. I take it to be a 1919D with some sort of error. I found this today at an old house and it was extremely deep. I don't think this is what they call Mint Condition, but that extra Metal on the last digit of the year is not damage.

    Sad or Glad

    Don't know how I feel. I bought a 6" DD and wound up with 2 Sun ray X-8 coils. My thinking was the X-8 was just a little deeper than my Coiltec 10X5 and left a little less foot print. I have to admit the Coiltek 10X5 is my favorite coil for the Etrac. I went to an old Park where I pulled some...

    My Experience with Wireless Headphones

    I started off buying this Transmitter https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NP9MYFM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Bright tech with apt-X. This transmitter was recommended by other Detectors who tried it and liked it. I also bought a apt-X receiver. While waiting for the Transmitter...

    Test of a Idea or maybe opinion

    In our search for depth, I am coming to believe that every coin we miss because it is too deep, I think we may be missing 3 to 4 because we do not have enough separation. I traded my big coil and all I have left is the stock coil. I bought two medium sized coils (8") and one 6" DD. going to hit...

    Etrac WOT 15" Coiltek

    I have posted this before and changed my mind but this time I am going to trade this Coil. I want to trade this Coil for a medium size coil. I would like a Sun Ray X-8 or Minelab 8" I do not want a Concentric

    Little Advice for New Hunters

    I just got permission for this House As you can see this house looks very old. When I got permission to hunt here I was told that two other Hunters had hunted this House. I know both these Guys and have hunted with one whom I consider a really good Hunter. This guy really has a good ear for...

    Feal Sorry for you Guys Up North

    I know for you Folks up North this is your off Season but believe it or not down here in Texas this is our best time of the year. The weather rarely gets too cold and this time of year the grass dies off opening up many places we can not hunt in the Summer.

    I Deserve a Prize

    I found the ugliest Silver Quarter ever. This is a 1944 Quarter I found Friday afternoon. When found I had no idea what it was. After 5 hours of Electrolysis with a Souped Up Power supply 21 V I can now say for sure it is a Quarter and still ugly. Tomorrow I will pour the juice to it again. I...

    Sun Ray X-8

    May have found one of these Coils. I have just about every size Coil for the Etrac but a Medium size. I do have the stock Coil but I want another Medium size. Anybody have opinions on these? Told by one Dealer these were Junk but could not find any bad experiences on the Net. My experiences...

    Opinion on Indian

    I hunted hard today in a Public Park. Down here it is rare to find Coins this old. This Indian was in Electrolysis for an Hour. It was unreadable before and I did not even know it was an Indian. Should I shock it some more or just leave it alone?

    Mars Pinpointer

    OK here is the scoop. The Mars Pinpointer is the same Depth as the Garrett Carrot or very close. It seems to be very Rugged and Simple. One hit on the Button and it comes on or goes off. There is no Delay like you have with the Carrot. There are no stages such as Low, Medium, and High. You can...

    Tear Jerker

    I recently got permission to hunt a couple old houses. The Owner's only request was that I let her know what I found. This house had been in her family for over a 100 years. The Owner was right at 80 herself. I had almost completed hunting the House when I decided to call her and report my...

    WOT Coiltek Coil for Etrac WTT

    Bought this Coil a couple weeks ago and it is too big for my style of Hunting. I want to trade it for something. I have two Etracs. What you got? What I would consider, smaller Coil. I like the Coilteks. A better Pin Pointer I have two Carrotts or whatever

    Etrac Settings Video

    Folks I am not an expert in any sort of way but I did have some new Software I was testing, so I made a Video. In the video I explained the Etrac and the way I run it. I am not a great spokesman but hopefully this will help some folks new to Metal detecting or some who just don't understand the...
