    How hard to learn the Deus?

    I've had many detectors over the years and I currently have a CTX 3030. It hasn't exactly been a marriage made in heaven as it's spent quite a bit of time at the shop getting something fixed. I have an Excal II for the beach but want a good machine for the dirt. How hard is it to go from...

    Got my CTX back from KellyCo

    I had the screen fixed for the 2nd time in 5 months of owning it. All of my programs were wiped clean so tonight I hooked it back up to CTX and was going to put everything back. Connected to Xchange and it says my firmware is out of date and it needs an update. So I update it and now the coil...

    FS CTX 3030 17" Coil $265 shipped

    I'm going to put this out there one last time before I put it up on Ebay. I bought this coil last month. I used it twice at the beach for around 2 total hours. It's just about as new as a coil can get. PM me for questions or pics if you need them. $265 shipped. It will probably cost me $20 to...

    Excalibur Changing it's tunes

    I bought a new Excal II last week and finally got to take it out the other day. I didn't submerge it as I was working the wet sand and wading in and out of the shore break up to 1-2 feet. My threshold tone changed every so often going from the light type sound to one where it sounded like I'd...

    Package Deal CTX 17"+ Pro Swing

    I bought the 17" a few weeks back, tried it twice on the beach and determined it's not for me. Literally 3-4 hours on the coil. I'm selling it with the minelab pro swing 45 which has only been used one time and become a closet queen. I'm asking $400 shipped for both. I'll consider separating but...

    Love my CTX, just don't know if I'll be able to keep it:ranting:

    This is my 2nd CTX in 5 months, both brand new. The first one developed a screen problem 3 weeks after I bought it. Vertical lines started appearing on my screen and Jamie took care of me right away and sent me out a new machine and off I went. Fast forward to today. I finally get out to hunt...

    ADVICE NEEDED

    I have about a 45-60 minute window to hit an area tomorrow morning during low tide to look for a Tungsten wedding band before the tide comes back in and I get beat up by the shore break. My question is this. Should I discriminate out all other signals for this limited time (using a Tungsten ring...

    Headphone port waterproof question

    If I use my regular koss headphones that I got with my CTX and plug them in directly to the machine will that connection be water proof? I'm going to be needing to go into the surf knee-waist high and will likely get some wave action that could dunk me and the machine. Mine is v2 3 months old in...

    Another WM-10 issue

    Has this happened to anyone. On my last 3 times out with the CTX I've had an ongoing problem with the WM-10 where I finally gave up on it today. Here's what's happening. I'm about 35-40 minutes into my hunt and I hear a "snap" sound in my headphones and in about 30 seconds or so afterward my...

    Beach hunting break in threshold

    I got out on the beach for the first time yesterday to hunt and it was a great learning experience. The beach I was hunting was really quiet, low trash but periodically I'd be swinging and the threshold would break consistently over the same spot but nothing registered in terms of sound or TID...

    WTB CTX 3030 17" Coil

    I'm going to be in the market for a used 17" CTX coil in the next week or so (payday coming) and I wanted to see if anyone had a gently used one they no longer needed. PM price and condition and let's see if we can make a deal. Thanks

    Shout out to Minelab Customer Service

    While one never wishes they had to use customer service it's inevitable that at some point in time everything will break and need to be fixed. Unfortunately mine occurred after only 9 days of owning my new CTX as my screen developed a problem and as a result I posted it on another forum(would...

    TTF- Sounded like a freight train in my head

    I got my new etrac two weeks ago and have been using it while it's not raining. Today I tried to use TTF on an old house site I've searched before 20 times at least and where I pulled my first etrac silver (in Andy S coin mode) the other day. To be perfectly honest it was a failure. I have no...

    FS GENTLY USED MINELAB SOVEREIGN GT

    I have a gently used Sovereign GT I need to sell. I'm the second owner and the only reason I'm selling is because I need to make another purchase and the boss won't allow me to do one thing without the other. It comes complete, with extra shaft and arm extender, NIMH rechargeable battery...

    Hitting the beach Monday

    Today's result was a whopping 5 pennies, all found in the same location. (worst coin spill ever) The beach was just real quiet, not much trash and I guess I can assume that since school started back for me and kept me away from the beach it did so for everyone else. Stayed in Salt Beach the...

    new coil help

    This leads to another question. Where is the adjustment for different coils made at in the program? I've been switching back and forth between the 9.50 and the D2 in the dirt and sand but have made no changes specifc to either coil. Tomorrow my 5.3 gets here as well so I need to know what I'm...

    Hitting the beach Monday

    There isn't a reason. I just didn't know if there was a difference. Just asking as many questions as I can to increase my knowledge.

    Hitting the beach Monday

    Thanks Rob. If I just stay in the dry sand do I still use salt beach or is there something else? Thanks
