    Why I switched to Etrac from a V3i

    Everybody asked why I switched. I got good finds with the V3i but I was just not satisfied I was getting good depth. I certainly was not getting the depth some other guys were claiming. I know a lot of these are fish stories and a lot truely believe their penny was at the bottom of the hole when...

    Todays Finds War Nickle 011516

    Went to Vacant Lot today that the Owner said had been Detected before. In fact she said she had chased off some other Detecters. I know there was an old House there years ago but it did not look like there had ever been much going on there. I already posted about a couple finds there myself. The...

    Found Today

    This is why you really need to dig those Zinc Pennies. Hopefully this find will pay a chunk of my Etrac cost. I know the chain is real. Hopefully the Pendant and Diamonds are as well. I almost did not hunt today because it was really muddy. We got 2" rain last night but the weather was just too...

    Tab Story

    My wife can be a true Blonde at times. I was out Metal Detecting the other day near my House. She decided to walk the dogs so she stopped by and asked me what I had found. I showed her some of my finds and she commented that I had found a lot on this property with the Etrac, I had hunted this...

    Etrac Highest Conductive numbers

    Do any of you get a number higher than 47 on anything but Trash. I was hunting the other day and kept getting a lot of 20-49 and 20-50. I was thinking of Discriminating these out. What few silvers I have dug hit no higher than 47 and one was 46. Advice please!!

    Good Places

    Well guys I have added three exceptional places to hunt on my list. I have got permission to hunt these sites, I just need the weather to cooperate. One of my hunting Buddies said he got to hunt this spot for just a few minutes and found 5 Barbers. Of course this place is out in the Country...

    Interesting Find

    I found this Christmas Eve and at first I had no clue what it was. I got home and realized it was two Wheat Pennies stuck together. I threw it in the Tumbler and after a couple of hours got it out and discovered that it was three Wheats stuck together. The Center Wheat is a Steel Penny. One of...

    My Current Coins PTRN

    People have been asking me what Pattern I use so I downloaded my Etrac Backup and my current Pattern. This Pattern cuts out most Pull Tabs while getting a good selection of Rings as well as most US Coins. You will miss very early Indians but not all. Most gold Pieces will be found but the ones...

    Etrac Deep on or off

    I just got the Andy Sabisch book and he recommends running Deep On. I am wondering why most people run it off. I have hunted both ways and din not notice any difference.

    Not much today I played around with TTF and dug 6 Wheat Pennies. All were pretty close together. Rain forced me to come home early. I did get my TTF ready to Hunt next time I go out though.

    Finds Today 121915

    Hunted with a Friend today and let him use my V3i. I hunted with the Etrac. We went to an old Church. I found almost all the Goodies although we did not hunt very long. The V3i hit on almost all my finds but I was behind him. Not sure why he missed these Coins. My guess he was going too fast. He...

    Finds Today 121815

    Well today was a little different day. I was plagued with a bunch of really small Watch Batteries. My Detector loved them and reported them as real deep Nickles. I dug everyone of them then had trouble finding them. Best find of the day was a Matchbox Dirt bike. My Son was excited about it. When...

    Finds Today 121715

    Found several Clad Nickles and one Coin Spill along side a Ditch. Found these two Wheats a 1951D and a 1948D. Also found this neat little White Stone with a Gold Plated Back. But the Big Find was this large Mens Gold Ring. Really hard to describe how this Etrac hunts best by sound.
