    First ring and wheatie of the year

    Couple hours in the park

    Found 1 Quarter, 4 Dimes, 3 Nickels, 3 Pennies, 1 Eagle and a bunch of Aluminum. I was concentrating on digging more Foil to Nickel readings today in hopes of a gold ring, but no luck.

    Teknetics detectors

    The T-2 and the Fisher F-75 look a lot alike. Is the Chassis made somewhere and then the electronics are installed by Teknetics and Fisher? How do the Teknetics Detectors compare to say Whites, or Fisher TID machines? I have never heard of Teknetics until I came to the forum. Dan

    One of my Favorite Finds

    I found this in George Iowa back in 95. It's one of my favorites because I can just imagine the poor kid that lost it and how much candy this would have bought. I also like the fact that the phone number was only two digits. I wonder if any of the old timers on here remember those days. Was...

    Setting Sensitivity on 6000 di pro sl

    I pasted a response from one of Monte's posts below on the SL Pro. Do you set the signal balance in the GEB Norm mode or the GEB Disc mode while the coil is on the ground? Before I establish a Ground Balance I will set the Signal Balance control as high as possible while remaining stable. Do...
