    Merc dime found today on the beach

    I went to a heavily hunted beach and found a merc dime in about two feet of water and it was down around three inches. It rang up as a 12-45 an easy target for any Etrac or CTX user. I cannot believe this wasn't found twenty years ago. It wasn't in a trashy area nor has anything of significance...

    Coins on edge observations

    Anyone else noticing their coins found on edge seem to be way up from their Etrac? Makes me wonder what I have missed. I found the deepest quarter,about ten inches, I have ever dug yesterday. Granted the signal was barely audible but I found it non the less. I also found two rings yesterday and...

    Trashy fresh water beach hunt experience

    I went to a trashy beach site today and worked the shoreline hard. It was so trashy that my detector provided several signals in close proximity with each sweep. I was listening for mid-high tones. I did not find any rings but did manage to work a few pennies out of the trash. I was using both...

    Found first silver ring today

    I was at a beach this morning and in the grass two steps out of my car I hit a solid 12-46/7 signal. I have dug quarters and a lot of dimes with this and noticed the co numbers are about two lower than on the Etrac except for this, my first silver ring. Does this see silver as a higher Co...

    I was out this weekend wading in water, I noticed when my screen was underwater the machine would stop detecting almost a null but not the same. When I brought the screen out of the water it would begin functioning normally again. Anyone else experience this? I was using my WM10 with the...

    Beach hunt experience

    I was not in the water just in the sand-freshwater. I noticed this thing runs a lot hotter and is deeper than I could dig at times. I did not bring my beach scoop just my lesche digging tool. My advice don't do that!!! I was able to run my coil over targets at least three times where I could not...

    Trashy park Nulling

    Took it out this morning to a known trashy park which I have had problems with my Etrac. Had the same problem with the CTX there was so much nulling it made hunting difficult. I was able to pull some shallow targets through the null but nothing more than three inches. I used the standard coin...

    first hunt

    Picked it up today and brought it to a park built in the 80's didn't expect much old just an opportunity to get it out and see what she can do. I thought the depth would be better than it was, I found a dime signal with my E-trac with a slight coil lift would disappear, I then tried the CTX and...

    CTX 3030 questions

    I am seriously considering this machine, however, I would like to post a few questions prior to my purchase. I have not heard weather this new machine is in fact any deeper than the E-Trac, any experiences out there? How deep will the target separation work with accuracy? Does it have an...
