    question on MXT meter response or lack of one?

    Last fall I was hunting for gold in an area not known to have produced any gold but did produce other metals in the past. I found evidence of an ancient sluicing operation there looked like to me and then my MXT sounded off with a bang but there was absolutely no meter id indication. I dug one...

    MXT ,Hot rocks, Meteorites,need info

    I was gold hunting in a creek this weekend and surrounding area, MXT only beeped on 1 rock tho. I did not bring it home thinking it was a hot rock except for the fact the MXT did NOT say it was a Hotrock. Most of the rocks in the area seemed to be limestone,chert, or flint except for this...

    found a little Fisher news

    Looks like Fisher Labs is moving their operations to Texas from California by Jan 1 since they were bought out by Bounty Hunter/First Texas. Maybe that's why the new machine is taking a bit longer to show up? I am going to a gold show in 2 weeks,see what else I can find out. --Tom

    Ace 250 , bought me a Sunray Probe,floods

    I don't know how I ever found anything without this probe.Of course, 1st time i used it was at night in the moonlight with a buddy, after a severe thunderstorm. We had been gold mining earlier and then the skies let loose. My buddy told me to leave my highbanker and pump on the gravel bar.Good...

    Got out park hunting with Ace and 9x12 coil,Sunray probes?

    I went to a local park where I have have never found anything older than maybe 1960, even tho it is right across the street from a history museum that was a tavern dating back to 1850. Well, I got 2 older wheats, one I can't read the date and the other is 1935.Both were under 6 inches,heck,one...

    X50 vs X70 vs Ace 250?

    I have the Ace 250 ,realy like it as a turn on an Go machine with id and easy to use, decent depth with the 6.5 inch elliptical coil.I have the X50 but its not nearly as easy to use, maybe cause of the manual GB.Steve Herschbach seems to think the X50 is the way to go because it has more notch...

    Love my Ace 250,but pinpointing is a problem?

    I keep digging craters to get coins with my Ace 250.Seems they are not in the center of my coil even when using the pinpoint button? Why is this? Dimes are way off at the far end of the coil away from me. I will stick to bark chip playgrounds till I get the hang of the pinpointing...

    Any new machine rumors?

    I's sure like to have a new Tejon with a good meter and 3 tone audio id. Otherwise I will probably get a T2 or Whites XLT to try out. I own several Tesoros tho and my LST is my all time best machine. I didn't really care for the Cortes or Deleon. --Tom

    Traded for X50, just got her this week

    I was playing with it and the air test depth is ok, nothing like a CZ, but ok,about the same as my Tesoro Lobo St.I also unboxed my Ace 250 and attached the new sniper coil and played with both machines. The thing that really caught my attention here was the fact I could detect a thin 2mm silver...

    Xterra vs Ace 250 vs Cortes

    I like the features of the new Xterras but aleady have Cortes,MXT, and a new in the box Ace 250. I like the idea of 4 tone audio id like the CZ machines have. I also like a fast retune speed and ultra lite weight to prevent detector elbow and easy to pinpoint. I want to keep my MXT for gold...
