Anyone know where 1 or...

    Want: BFO

    I would like to play around with a "high end" BFO type detector just for the heck of it. Maybe an old Garrett, a Jetco or other. Again, I don't want a beginners type unit but, but one of the better models. Oh, and equally important. I'm unfortunately on a fixed income now, so, gots to be...

    Hair Brained itea

    Anyone ever fooled around with this? A TR or VLF detector's biggest problem is the way it provides the audio note you listen to when it finds a target. And, that problem is that it takes about 6 db's of positive change before you can hear the difference. Now, Bfo detectors get their name...

    Place to go detecting

    I've been detecting, off and on, for many years, an so, I really only go to places where the chances of finding older coins is good. However, a couple of months ago I was driving by a temporary probable site, that came and left, really looked good like a great place to find late lost coins...

    Front Yard/ Backyard

    You know...I'm slow, I admit it! Sometimes real slow, but even though I've had the data for years, I just put it together the other day. I remembered some years ago, while metal detecting an old house in downtown Fresno, I found lotsa old coins (hey that means Mercury dimes and "V" nickels...

    RE: Pin Pointer

    There was some interest in this. I couldn't find my original subject line, maybe it was removed, moved or ??? So I'll put it here. There was a discussion in these forums about pin pointers. Someone mentioned Harbor Freight was carrying one for 15 buck. My local store had a couple in stock...

    Pin Pointer

    I wasn't particularly interested in one of these things, being set in my old ways, but when I encountered folks on this group discuss them being available at Harbor Freight for 15 bucks *cheap* I rushed right over and bought one. Now admittedly, not being familiar with other units, I really...

    Digging tools

    Hi... I just saw something so obvious that my jaw fell open. I was watching a Treasure show where they were metal detecting for gold in Alaska. Now, when I go out I'll sometimes pick a hand full of dirt and wave it over the loop looking for the target. Yes, hand full of dirt, rusty nails...

    WTB: Case

    Hi....... I'm looking for a hard (plastic) case to transport my detector around in. It would have to be at least the following dimensions: 37 x 12 x 7 inches. I've looked on E-bay and other places but found nothing. Some detector shops might have one, but cost is important too. Any one know...
