    F75 LTD, still gets the job done

    I have spent the summer learning two new machines. I felt like i had a good handle on the F75 so it has been sitting a lot. Sunday, while working with a new machine I lost a battery and had to go to my back up detector. The F75 fired up and felt like an old friend. We were hunting an old...

    New to the Deus but enjoying the trip

    I have only had the Deus since Thursday but jumped at the chance to take it out in a recently cut corn field. I really hadn't studied the menu too much but did manage to move from one program to the other. We were hunting an old house site. I was in the Fast program with no changes. I got a...

    I don't have much luck with nickels but gold is good

    Took the E trac into a neighborhood yard that I have hunted several times with some other detectors. I always did pretty well. Got a junk signal and as the swing continued it jumped into the nickel range. I was using the Minelab 8 and I immediately slowed it down and swung from different...

    You have to be kidding me - - - in Central Indiana?

    You guys have been putting up with my rookie Etrac questions and I appreciate it. I finally decided I knew what coins signals sounded like and I was going to dig them. If it was questionable or just weird, I let it go. I hit this last night at an old picnic grounds in Central Indiana. It...

    Rookie E trac user question

    Guys, I am a rookie on the E trac. I have been trying it for a month or so and struggling a little. When I hit a coin I hear the great E trac response and dig the coin. I have perfected the wiggle pin point. I have modified programs and installed other people's user modes. Last night I...

    Is Fisher That Good?

    I know I was a Fisher guy when the LTD came out. I hate to say but I think we at least had a few rumors or some prototype detectors floating around. I sure hope Fisher has something in the pipe but can't believe they could keep it this quiet. I am used to camera manufacturers and their...

    Fisher, not so waterproof 11 inch coils.

    I have killed two coils by submerging them. One on my F75 and one on my G2 about a week later not realizing that water had killed the first one. Fisher was great in replacing them under warranty. I just wish they would let us know if the sealer on the back of the coil is a fix. I have...

    Woo Hoo, First E-trac silver

    A friend of mine sent me a link to Goes4ever's webpage today. I watched about six videos and was chomping at the bit to get out. I had too many things to do. I told my wife I was just going out in the yard. I couldn't get the E-trac to sound right. I messed with the menu and finally did a...

    My first coin with an Etrac

    I put the Etrac together early this week but changed it for the hunt today. I ran a Minelab 8 inch coil and mounted the Sunray probe. It is older. Can use say, serial number 322? It worked fine. I hunted a grassy yard that I have pounded with a bunch of machines for 10 or more years...

    Thrust into the Etrac family and I like it - - -

    I was lucky enough to win a new Etrac at a competition hunt last week. I posted it to sale and then decided that might be a mistake. I put it together and hit one of the older spots that I have pounded for years. People I take care complain there are no signals. Today in about thirty minutes...

    Man, can't stay away from CZs

    I just sent the money for a new to me CZ70 pro. I sold mine to raise money for a detecting thrip earlier this year. I have plenty of other detectors including an early 1021 but I missed the CZ70. I know I won't use it every day but there are those days that it really is a just what I need...

    One stinking Memorial but happy as can be - - -

    I am usually a field hunter but most of them are planted and I had to move to a yard tonight. I only found one penny but I am still pretty happy. I was pretty happy when I dug a silver looking thimble but was amazingly happy when I saw it said, "drink Coca Cola in bottles". I dug a silver...

    G2 depth not a problem today

    I can't add any comments to anybody's depth questions about the G2. Today it had more than enough. Back to back days with Large Cents with the G2. Yesterday it sniffed one out of the iron. Today it almost blew my headphones off. I looked down and didn't have to do any digging...

    Got the G2 back out today - why did I put it down?

    I have been hunting an old site along the river lately. I found my first half dime there just before the relic hunt in Virginia. I took the same detector back out there when I got back and found several small flat buttons but no more coins. I decided to day that the G2 was the perfect thing...

    Stock CZ coil cover - WTB

    I have misplaced my coil cover. I have already hunted a while before I realized it was missing. I guess some damage done but would like to protect the coil from further abuse. Anybody got one laying around? If you do, let me know. Thanks, Don

    Pretty Happy with my Tom Tune Up.

    You can say I am a pretty happy camper. Got my 1021 CZ3d back from a tune up yesterday. I couldn't wait to give it a try. Went to an old site near the river today. I had forgotten how much fun the CZ is to use. I waded through a lot of iron and finally got that sweet, repeatable signal I...

    Revisiting some old sites with the SE

    What a great day in central Indiana. Took the SE back to an old picnic grove that I have pounded with every detector I have ever had. Hunted slow and was lucky enough to pull a Buffalo nickel. Not sure of the date but just pleased to find. I also went out in the middle of a field nearly a...

    My first yard hunt with a Minelab - encouraged

    I decided to try the SE Pro in a yard here in town. I have hunted it several times with two or three different detectors. It is pretty big and I have dug quite a few coins. I dug the old chunky, cheap bracelet first. I am new to the detector so I dig anything that sounds interesting. My...

    Gave the Large Cent a bath and got a Seated

    Best day every for me and a Minelab. I guess I haven't had very many but I would like a few more like this one. The dime came from an old one room school house site. Don HH
