    Which headphones do you use for GT and why...

    Hi, everybody. It's been a long time since I posted here but am getting back into things. I recently bought a Sov GT and since I've never really invested in good, quality metal detector headphones I thought I would tap into your experience. Any and all advice appreciated. Good to be back. BTW...

    The Discovery channel...

    has been running specials on sharks all week, especially Bull Sharks, which, according to them, tend to stay close inshore in the summer months when they are giving birth to their young. Amazing how dangerous these sharks can be. You water hunters be extremely careful out there and try not to...

    The photos on this forum...

    remind me of why I love living on the coast. No, this post isn't about some great gold I dug up but rather the gold that I live in. It's funny, but when I look at all of the great photos by everyone who lives up and down the coast, I feel at home. I feel as though we all come from the same place...

    Anyone suggest a scale for weighing gold...

    Looking for one with a calibration weight and would like to keep the cost down as much as possible. Just something to give me an idea of what I have. I only hunt the beach and have some gold I want to sell. Thanks. Jerry

    1st time out with new GT...

    Sorry I don't have pictures but maybe later. Anyway, I got my new GT about a week or so ago and took it out for first beach hunt today about two hours before low tide. The wind was still blowing pretty good here and the sand was really blowing so I didn't stay out too long, maybe an hour and a...

    Question about Iron Mask on GT...

    I just received my new Sov GT and though I haven't had it out for a real hunt I did try it out in the yard. Looks like it's going to be a great detector. My question is about the Iron Mask feature. I tried it using a large nail on and close to several gold rings and clad coins. When sweeping...

    F/S Minelab Explorer II...SOLD

    I bought this detector two years ago from Kellyco. It has probably been used for about 5 or 6 months total. It comes with the Minelab 10" coil/cover and Minelab 8" coil/cover.

    Testing for diamonds...

    For all you jewelry hunters out there, you should invest in a diamond tester, one that will also test for Moissanite. A regular diamond tester will tell you if it's CZ but not Moissanite. Moissanite is the most frequently used synthetic for diamond used today and it's properties are very similar...

    Christmas Coke bottles...

    the old 6 oz. (I think) green Coca-Cola bottles that have the Dec. 25, 1928? patent date. Are they worth anything? I know these don't compare to what many of you show and talk about here but I have a couple and was just wondering. Thanks. Jerry

    Aluminum shovels...

    anybody know where to buy these? I like using a shovel if I'm not going into the water but having a good all aluminum one would be nice. Only thing I've been able to google is for snow shovels. If none are commercially available guess I'll have to design and make one. Any help appreciated. Jerry

    Question on Excalibur coil covers...

    How many of you use them? I just got my Excalibur and it seems hard to keep the coil cover on the thing. I'm thinking it isn't worth the effort and sure as anything I'll lose it soon as I get in the water. Other than this little gripe I really like the Excal. Do any of you have a way of keeping...

    Excalibur spare battery pod...

    I did a search on this but all that came up was one for sale. For those who have used it, the one for AA batteries, how deep have you taken it and have you ever experienced any leaks? Minelab says use it only for wading but they also say take it no deeper than 10 feet. Kind of ambiguous. Just...
