    Question on TTF?

    Hey guys, I'm a new Etrac owner(<1month) and have had some decent success. Still getting used to the unit. I have a yard that I've taken some nicer old coins out of and have been going over it with the Etrac. I have been playing with TTF and am wondering....with all the ferrous noise you...

    Pinpointing question??

    I'm still new to my Etrac and notice that sometimes when I have ended up with a coin I get pinpointing to work spot on, yet other times I seem to have the target visualized as to where the target should be, yet it may pinpoint off to the left or right a few inches and I get no signal where i...

    Franklin Halfs

    Is it true Franklin Halfs don't show up? It's not that they are lying around like zinc pennies, but why is it Franklin Halfs don't show up with the Etrac?. I haven't tried my Etrac on one yet so I know nothing about what it will or will not do with a Franklin half.

    Coins program

    Still brand new with my Etrac. The coins program has a black line in the upper right corner. I saw where that will discriminate silver dollars? So am I to understand you are to manually open up that area and then save it to my modes and take up one of the slots? Why would they do that...

    Beach settings?

    Hey guys, brand new to the Etrac site and I'm slowly learning the machine. I'm on vacation next week and heading to the beach for 7 days bringing my detectors. Anything special I should know about beach hunting with the Etrac? I already have some areas mapped out as we are going...

    In the market for an underwater detector

    Hey guys. Love reading about your finds. I'm in the market for an underwater detector and have been reading alot about the Excaliburs. Just wondering how those who have them like them. I'm kind of partial to the Excalibur only because I'm a scuba diver as well and want something if I want to...

    Anyone own a large SEF? 15x12 or 18x15?

    Just wondering if anyone has one of these large coils? I know each has its place. Just wondering if the 15x12 for example would be that much better than the 12x10?. You have to take everything into consideration weight included. But for a short hunt where you might want more depth, I don't...

    Do you like your MXT stock coil?

    I'm on the fence about my MXT Pro Stock Coil. I was thinking about it this past fall thinking I had used it and was missing targets. They say it is a deep coil, but I haven't found that to be the case. I get better detection with another coil I own and was thinking of selling it?? It IS...

    AT PRO or EXCALIBUR?

    I know they are two different price ranges, but for the money is the Excalibur that much better a detector than the AT Pro? I'm basically looking for an underwater detector for doing some water searches. Much of my water searches will be shallow I'd guess. Your thoughts on using these two...

    One of my best finds!

    Found this medallion in the woods about a month ago during the summer. Pretty cool find. Fort Ethan Allen is in Vermont. The history around this medallion just sparks the imagination.

    10X12 SEF or 5.3?

    Looking for some opinions. I've got the 12" stock coil that came with my MXT Pro and a 6x8 SEF coil. I was thinking of picking up the 10 X 12 SEF or the 5.3 as an added coil. I know both have different circumstances in which you'd use them. Those who have the respected coils....what are your...

    Cool relics found & some coin

    Found the cool womens broach about 6" deep. Cool detail. The colonial button I found at a friends 1800's home along with about 10 others that were not as fancy. Any information on these items ....chime in. The barber was about 9" down probably the deepest I've dug a dime thus far...very faint...

    A couple from this past weekend.

    Need to clean the 1898 indian. All I did was soak them in olive oil. Any and all ideas accepted! Sorry about the zoom on the 1876 German coin I found. I had to crop it to get it below the 420KB.

    Another large cent

    Just found another large cent. I can see a bust on the coin and cannot really detect a date, nor can I see anything on the back. My question is should I try to clean this coin beyond the soap and water that I've tried to be able to detect a date and better detail or is that going to ruin the...

    MXT Sounds when swinging

    I'm guessing that some of you may have experienced the same thing with your MXT. Your swinging away moving along....nothing...nothing..then a quick sweet chip is heard from the unit, but going back over that spot indicates a different tone....an infrequent tone that chirps only one way...or...

    8X6, 12X10 and 15X12 SEF coils

    Does anyone know if there are any great differences between these coils? I have the 8X6 coil and wonder whether how much extra depth could be expected with the 12X10 and the 15X12. I realize there are weight issues that need to be factored into consideration. Just wondering how many of you...
