    ace 250 and wet ground question

    Situation: lots of rain, ground really wet. Will detect but will not pinpoint. Solid tone in pinpoint unless coin is above ground or just a few inches below, or object is big e.g. drink can etc. Question: would a detector with manual ground balancing allow me to pinpoint with same situation? Thanks

    what's a used tejon worth?

    Guys, can you all give me a price for a used tejon? let's say, one, used in excellent condition and one used, not well taken care of. Then i can get an average price. I haven't ruled out a new one yet, either. any comments would be welcomed. thanks r

    Any Garretts emitt a threshold sound like a White MXT?

    Do any Garrett md's use the threshhold constant sound like the White's? What Garrett would be comparable to a White MXT and a DXT? do the Garretts go as deep as the White's. I'm like the quy asking about the Minelab earlier. I think this is a great way to learn as you who are experienced with...

    What's a deep coin on the Ace?

    I'm doing fairly well on coins/trash down to about 2inches. I know when pinpointing a coin the sound is definite when coil approaches or leaves the coin. My question: what is the reaction when pinpointing a coin that is deep, say 4-6 or even 8 inches? Is it just as definite? Also is the bell...

    Questions on Ace 250 12inch coil

    I've read that some of you have the 12 inch coil on the 250. It seems to be very sensitive to small objects e.g. Uncle Willy's ring find. I am curious as to how much depth increase you gain vs. the standard coil. What's the deepest find with standard coil compared to the deepest find with the...

    life after the ace 250

    I might be able to answer this after I get some time under my belt. However, I would like to have a heads-up from your experience. I have a Ace 250 now.
