    Finally got out and snagged some silver

    VIDEO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psuetzxSBTU I was able to get out for a couple hours this past week. Went to an area of the park I've hit pretty hard over the last few years. Not sure how I missed these signals before. I was using the 8x6 SEF coil on the Etrac. It's an old picnic...

    Duracell Procell - Used batteries

    I'm an RN on a step-down unit and 99% of our patients have heart monitors on while they're on my unit. Once a patient is discharged or transferred to another unit we take the 2 batteries out of the monitor and discard them. I find it very wasteful. They are contained inside a sealed monitor so...

    FOR SALE - 15" WOT coil for Minelab Etrac

    I bought this coil from another well known forum member back in the fall to basically use it on one farm field. I got some relics and 2 large cents (including an 1826). The coil hits hard and seems to go pretty deep. That's the only field I've ever hunted and I don't plan to do much more since...

    Are Etrac screen and Samsung Galaxy screen about the same size??

    I was wondering if the Galaxy screen is about the same size as an Etrac screen? I have an Iphone so can't really compare myself. Does anyone have both and can let me know? 5 and Below store has the Galaxy screen protector for $2. If it doesn't fit then I have to dish out $5 for the Ipad...

    First farm field hunt - what am I doing wrong?

    I have permission to hunt a farm field that had a school on it back in 1874 (based on my map). I spent an hour and a half there looking for some trash or any clues as to where the school sat. I also swung while I was walking the field. It was so clean. I couldn't even find an area with heavy...

    Got my 15" WOT today

    And they are calling for up to 10" of snow by Thursday morning, starting tonight. Oh well, that's life. I'm just itching to get it out over some of my old spots and see if I can pull anything a little deeper.
