    Heard a Squeak

    Well we got the Cold Front but no rain. It is so dry here it is almost impossible to hunt. I was bored so I decided to go to one of my Permissions and Cherry Pick with my WOT Coiltek. I got several Wheat Pennies but had to dig them with a Miner's Pick. I was up close to the House in the 6" grass...

    Fast on or off

    I am really torn with how I use this setting. I like how I get less false signals with it off but I hate how the screen really don't update. With it On i get more False signals but it is much easier to pick out good targets in Trash. I also worry that I miss good targets with it off.

    Cleo Clad Hunter

    I am reading about all these good finds and I have two unhunted 100 year old Houses to hunt. Spent the last couple evenings hunting one of these houses. I have bunches of Zincs, clad dimes, a few Nickles, and a few quarters, but only one 48 Wheat penny so far. What bothers me is I have only...

    Reluctant Hunt

I was not getting any good signals and looked across the street, Across the street there was an old House where I had already got permission to...

    Nail Test Revelation

    Thanks to the guy that posted the Nail test. This test puts a dime just inside two nails and using an Etrac he picks them up every pass. This is great because the conductive number is very consistent. I knew I was picking up good targets out of Nails but I had to be sure. So i did the Nail test...

    My Detecting Rig or Bag

    I made this by adding a set of Suspenders to a belt. This works great and the Key is the Keeper in back that keeps my pants from sliding down every time I bend over.

    Manual Vs Auto

    I was reading a post where the poster was setting his Etrac to auto then after the Auto +3 got a good reading, he set the Etrac to Manual and continued to hunt. Was these actions to make the response quicker or does the Auto just detract from depth a little?

    FFE Numbers

    I have not been hunting since this is my off season. After a 2 inch rain I thought maybe I could get out again and dig. I was going over the settings and thought I might try ferrous again. My question is if I use say 4 tone Ferrous and I favor 4 tone over Multi. I set to Ferrous. If my...

    Embarrassing Hunt

    I have been really busy and as everyone knows here in Texas, it seems to never stop raining. The grass is growing like crazy. I noticed one of my properties had a fresh mowed lawn and it was real close to home. I only had a little while to hunt so even though I had hunted this hard at least...

    Primer for Beginners

    I have metal detecting since sometime around 1975. I have used all kinds of detectors and really miss my Garrett Ground Hog with true Non Motion discrimination. These days Detectors are pretty equal and the upper end Detectors can be a little hard to use with all the Gadgets and Manual Controls...

    Todays Hunt 032416

    Went by an old House that I have permission to hunt and saw the Owner cutting the grass. This old House is on an Acre Land and most likely had an old House behind it. This is where I found the old Lock last hunt. Since the grass had just been cut, I had to get back there. I hunted a different...

    Todays Hunt 032316

    Did not find much just one 1927D Wheat Penny and this old Lock. Some of these Locks can go for right at $100.00. Of course I have no key but mine is open. I checked and these are often faked and mine seems to be the real thing. I am no lock collector so it is for sale.
