    Couple hours, couple rings

    Although one isn't truly a "ring" it does look pretty old. It has Yogi on the front and Deputy Dog, or possibly Huckleberry Hound on the sides? It says 1959 on the back, don't know if it's that old, but pretty cool. The other is a .925 men's ring... Not bad for a couple hours in the water. I...

    First ring with my CZ20

    Went out to a friend's beach house today and dug up my first ring with this machine. It's a Tungsten/Titanium hybrid that my buddy had lost two years ago. Due to its size and density this baby was an easy 12" down, but gave a solid hit, and even an overloaded when I finally reached it. I'm very...

    Modulation

    I tried using varying degrees of modulation but kept worrying about missing a faint hit. I also mentioned reversing the modulation on White's forum. I wonder how hard that would be and if current models could be changed. I currently turn mine off...

    VX3 Below Reduced Again!!

    I should just keep this machine but I've got my mind set on a water machine so let's get this baby sold! Guess I'll keep dropping the price until it's sold or until it makes no sense at all to sell! Streamlined info... 6 mos. old! Scratch on the upper right portion of the screen, but I don't...

    FS: Vx3

    Reluctantly, I'm selling my Vx3 to pick up a detector for some beach hunting this summer. That being said, I will consider either a Tiger Shark and/or a Cibola with the 3x18 cleansweep coil towards a trade. The detector was purchased from a forum member and is about 6 mos. new! It does have a...

    An old church lot yields a merry widow!

    Take a gander at what my V found in a church lot. There's even one left! I got a chuckle out of it. The larger item was found in an old abandoned farmhouse's yard. I assume it is an old compact case, back when they were made of copper! No cool old coin finds, just wheaties. We all know what...

    1$ Gold coin v.d.i. question

    As Larry had stated, a gold ring or chain does not have the mass of the gold coin, but they do have the higher conductivity for the 22.5kHz freq. to register as dominate. The dollar coin had the mass of a zinc penny, AND the conductivity of jewelry, so the middle frequency was dominate. Kind of...

    depth fun

    Nice finds Steve. I like to do the same. Many times the buddy will be able to detect it with his Fisher but says that it isn't a good signal. That's what I like so much about the three frequencies. Pull the trigger and see that dominate 2.5 and I know for sure to dig.

    Thinking of getting a Spectra VX3....Need advice.

    Good luck! Go slow and stick with the factory programs for a good bit (like a month or so) until you are comfortable with tweaking things. Read and re-read the manual..... and don't forget to ground balance!!

    Thinking of getting a Spectra VX3....Need advice.

    Rob hits it spot on. If you are on the fence go with the V3i. The rechargeable battery pack and dd coil alone are worth the difference. I own the Vx3 and am happy with it, but I got it in trade, otherwise I would have went with the V3i. I use energizer rechargeable batteries and they work fine...

    VX3 users

    It's a great machine and very easy to use. Although I may be a bit biased as I've had the XLT, two MXT's, and two Classics in the past....:thumbup: Think ahead though. If you are familiar with White's platform (ie DFX or XLT), and have the extra cash, definitely consider the V3i. I traded a...

    The Vx3 found it's first Indian

    I like those Indian pennies with that pretty green patina, this one looks more like it was dipped in acid. But as always, it is cool to find something with an 1800's date on it!

    The Vx3 found it's first Indian

    Well it has been a while since I posted so I figured that a quick summary is in order for my new Vx3. I found my first Indian head penny of the year with it just last week. Sorry, no photos as it is pretty toasted. I can barely make out that it is in the 1800's, that's about it. Probably an 1877...

    VX3 and BCR

    I love that pinpoint feature with the Vx3....just look for the dominate 2.5 freq. unless you have a potential gold hit...:thumbup:

    vx3 audio

    I didn't realize the Vx3 had an external speaker...:lmfao: Guess I'd better see if mine works!

    DX-1 Sunray probe wanted

    Although I have a propointer, I'd like to get a Sunray for my Vx3. I was spoiled by having one on my Explorer...:help: PM me with a price, please. I'll post back when I find one. Thank you!
