    Anyone near the Cloverdale, Ca area ? An heirloom ring needs rescuing...

    ...but I'm too far away to help quickly. I have been in touch with a couple who desperately want to find a lost wedding ring. It has been lost in a river but sounds like it might be readily findable with some luck and skill. If your close to that area and have the tools (water machine, hookah...

    M6 tone options

    I was wondering if the M6 can be set up with a two-tone ID to work/sound the same as the MXT in relic/alternate mode. I am looking to pick up a machine for a close friend who is getting into MD'ing. I am thinking the M6 would be a great machine for her but I'm afraid that the multiple (7) tones...

    My oldest nickel to date but...

    ...that may not be my best find of the day. Sorry no pics right now, my camera/computer connection is bad. I went to a local school after hearing a first-hand account of 2 gold nuggets being lost in the playground many years ago. I knew it was a long shot but it doesn't take much to get me...

    Whites legendary service...

    ...proves every bit as true as I've read. I had my first dealing with Whites customer service (Mary) and it's no exaggeration to say that this company KNOWS customer service. I know it's been mentioned here plenty but I think it bears repeating when you run into it personally. After all, isn't...

    Cam-lock question

    I have a broken cam-lock on the middle rod of a BHID 300. Is this a part that can be purchased and replaced easily or would I need a whole new rod ? Appreciate any advice from someone who's dealt with this before. Thanks in advance, HH Scott

    First Super 12" hunt finds Kennedy Half #4

    Sorry no pics yet ( camera/computer don't get along anymore) so I'll try to give some help full info with my story. I received a super 12' coil as part of a trade with another forum member recently and decided to test it out at a local school field. I had been told a rumor that several men had...

    Older vs Newer Excal Question

    I have an opportunity to pick up an Excal from a local seller for $750. All he can tell me is it's an older version and hardly used. What are the feature differences between the older and newer versions ? Is there a cutoff date between a machine you would want and an obsolete or out-of date...

    Sand scoop advice ?

    I'm looking for my last critical piece of equipment for water hunting. I understand the requirements of a water scoop ( Hvy duty, etc ) but I'm just wondering if there's a scoop that's clearly the best choice. From the info I've picked up, I'm thinking a Hvy. duty aluminum scoop is the way to...

    Just wanted to say hi to all the beach/water hunters and let you know there's another hunter in your ranks. I've been in the market for a good PI machine for awhile and after educating myself with some great forum-member advice I found my machine. Headin out in a few minutes to pick up a "nearly...

    Fliptop ( Art ) is a rare breed

    I recentlly completed my first transaction with Art. After accomodating me on the deal to begin with, when an issue arose ( through no fault of his own ) Arthur refunded my money as soon as I TOLD him the detector was in the mail, BEFORE he recieved it back. Now that's dealing with integrity ! I...

    PI Water Machine. Need help to decide....

    ....between the Whites Surfmaster PI Pro and the Surf Pro Dual Field PI. Again, I've been forced to post this question on this forum cuz I was not getting adequate responses on the beach forum. I'm really trying to get some expert advice on choosing the best water / wet sand machine for my area...

    Surfmaster PI pro or Surf PI dual field ?

    I'm really trying to get some expert advice on choosing the best water / wet sand machine for my area. I'm in Central / Northern Ca. Black sand seems to be pretty common on many of the local beaches. Since I haven't received any advice to the contrary, I've determined for myself that I'm going...

    Best Whites water machine choice ?

    I'm still trying to get it nailed down to which detector I want to start shopping around for. Open to any advice but I've narrowed it down to picking between one of the Whites PI or VLF water machines. If anyone hunts and/or knows what is the best machine for Central Ca beaches (...

    Does anyone else suffer from this affliction ?

    I call it "delusional sight finds" and it's becoming more acute. What happens is no matter where I'm walking I'm always scanning the ground and quite often spot a "good find" on the surface only to pick it up and find out it's not whatever I thought it was. Spotted a nice gold hoop earring...

    Beach/Water machine, any advice or opinions ?

    I live right on the coast in Central Ca. (Monterey Bay area) and have been MD'ing for about 6 months on land and some dry sand exclusively. I actually started out with a Fisher 1280x but never used it in saltwater and recently sold it. Apparently I've since become a White's man with my land...
