    Soft Sand vs. Low Tide

    Just curious as to what everyone prefers when beach hunting, the soft sand or when it's low tide by the water's edge? Where do you generally find the gold? I know most will tell me that they grid but if you had to pick one which would you prefer?

    Daytona Beach - Volusia

    Looking to hunt parks, homestead, lots, etc. I have lots of great places in mind, just not comfortable in these areas detecting alone. Hit me up, thanks.

    Unstable in Parks...Advice Please

    I've been trying to venture into parks, lots, etc. because frankly our beaches are hunted out until spring tourist season kicks in. The problem I always have is that every park or lot that I have attempted to detect leaves me scratching my head, it seems no matter what mode I use the low...

    FILL IN YOUR HOLES !!!

    Today an older gentleman stopped me on the beach, and for the first time in 20 odd years of detecting I was asked "Aren't you worried that someone may fall into one of those holes you left?". I was taken back by this question and really didn't know how to respond, so I just went on my way. as...

    Target Separation Question

    Ok, I've been tinkering with different settings today while hunting a trashy park. I went to edit the program a bit and decided to see what "target separation" had to offer. I noticed that there is low trash, high trash, ferrous-coin, and ground-coin and tried each one but there really wasn't...

    $1 Coin

    I wonder if I am the first one here who found the new $1 coin while beach hunting, until today I had no idea that they existed. I thought I had something special, but hey...it's a buck.

    12-15

    Could someone please explain why gold and pull tabs are the same target ID?, These two items couldn't be further apart in value so why couldn't they be different ID's, is this intentional on Minelab's part?

    Waterproof Audio Surge 2G H2O Earbuds :clap:

    I finally finished my project of making waterproof earbuds by using a pair of Audio Surge 2G H2O Earbuds. I wanted to see how they stood up so I took a dip in our heated pool for over an hour and all is good. The sound is amazing :) For those who was wondering if this can be done, it is possible...

    Lesche Digger Custom Rig

    With my detector being away for repairs I can honestly say I have had way to much time on my hands. With that being said, I hated carrying my 18" Lesche Digger as I detected so I had a buddy of mine who is a Tanner/ Leather Craftsman design a belt clip with a quick snap release at the "T"...

    Rechargeable 9V Batteries

    I just purchased (2) Maha Powerex 9v 300 mAh Rechargeable NiMH Batteries, I must say that they are excellent for my Garrett Pro Pinpointer. Has anyone else here used rechargeable 9v's and if so what do you recommend?

    Coil Cover ???

    I never knew that this detector had a coil cover on it, nor does anywhere in the manual does it state it has one already on it. Can someone point out where the manual states this? I sent my detector in for repairs because I thought the coil was defective only to find out it that the coil cover...

    Waterproof Earbuds

    I have a CTX and purchased the 8 pin waterproof connector but have yet to solder it to a good pair of headphones. I do not want clunky headphones but rather some great quality earbuds, any suggestions? I'm leaning towards the H2O Audio IE2-BK Surge 2G Waterproof Earbuds but really don't know if...

    Life w/o my CTX

    Let me just tell you that a huge void has been brought upon me, my ctx was sent in for repairs and there's no telling when I'm getting it back. Thanks to Find's and everyone here who posts their great finds, tips, and thoughts...it keeps me going until she returns to me. HH ya'll.

    Shipping CTX back to Minelab Question

    I'm shipping the ctx back tomorrow for coil repair and they want me to ship the whole unit back. I forgot to ask if i should ship it back taken apart or fully assembled, has anyone shipped theirs back and if so how? I want to ship first thing in the morning, Minelab is Central time so by the...

    Bad Coil :rant:

    I've always noticed that whenever I would set my coil down I would get a quick beep, since I primarily hunt on the beach I often disregarded it as a false tone due to mineralization or wetness, etc. As with every hunt I always rinse from the shaft down and wipe clean my ctx, however today upon...

    Beach Finds w/ CTX 3030 - Aug. thru Nov. 2012

    I've only had my detector for a few months now but thought I throw up a pic or two of what I have accumulated over this short period of time. Mind you, I go out for a few hours (weather permitting and when low tide is at it's best) and hit as close to the surf as I can. I've found all clad :(...
