    Is the Super 12 worth buying for the V3

    I have seen a few topics about the Super 12 Coil but not many. I own the D2 and a 6x10. Live in Wisconsin and am thinking of buying a Super 12 for my v3. Want it for old parks to go deep. But need to know if it will go deeper than a D2 and by how much. If someone has one and has experience using...

    v3 finds today. 3 denominations of dimes

    Found all three today in parks around my area. One was over 7 inches deep. Not too much but did find allot of clad. This is the most silver dimes in one day for me.

    V3 vs MXT

    I've gone over sites with my v3 that I have already gone over with it before and still find coins. I've noticed that setting ground filter and recovery make big changes as well. Longer recovery = harder hits. Lower filter = slower swing and seems to pick more up if not too trashy. v3 can really...

    D2 vs. 6x10

    I had a D2 go bad on me per say. I found that I could no longer run an RX gain of 9 or higher and have Disc. up over 80. Hold the coil in the air and turn on Boost without overloading. Called Whites and they once again come through as the super Company they are. They sent me a replacement D2...

    Performance drop-off and intermittent overloading

    Just posted elsewhere kinda the same thing. Use to be able to run rx @15 and disc. all the way up with tx boost on. Now can only manage rx 8 with tx boost and disc. on 85. Recommended rx is now down to 4 at all times. ? I'm going to call whites to ask about this and see about the v3i upgrade.

    v3 and Meteorites

    Sounds good. WIll have to try. Still don't understand why I cannot run tx boost above 8 rx in the air. Does that hint at a problem with my d2? I use to be able to crank everything up without overload.

    v3 and Meteorites

    I have been blessed to Live 45 miles North of Wisconsin's close encounter with a Meteor. I took a drive to the location where a internet news reported a Farmer had been sitting outside at 10 P.M. and the giant fireball roared over. He heard a tinging on a shed roof 20 seconds later and found the...

    How does Spectra V3 compare to the DFX on depth penetration?

    Stock coils? v3 is 2 or so inches better. I buried a quarter at 9 inches on its side. Couldn't hit it with the dfx and stock coil. V3 hits pretty good. Used a 10x14" Accelerator on the dfx and it goes as deep as the v3 with using the d2 on the v3 and was very stable One thing with the v3 is...

    Is it possible to search in one freq, pinpoint in all 3?

    I run deep silver on 2.5. When I hit a target. I hit enter while over live control on programs. I then have a three frequency program that is the same as the deep silver but called 3 freq deep silver. Highlight that and enter. then pinpoint with that. Once done hit enter and go back to deep...

    Depth

    I had the problem of not being able to hit a quarter at 9". What I found is. Turn Ground filter to 5Hz Recovery to 100 3 Freq. so you can go to pinpoint and tell if it is a coin or not. or if even more depth use just 2.5 KHz. Rx gain and discrimination @ the most stable I can then hit the 9"...

    Drive In Theater & Pinpoint mode

    Wondering if many people have hit old or operating Drive-in theaters. If a person wants to learn some about discrimination, these are the places to go. I have found well over $130 in loose change. 6 silver rings and probably missed 3 times that since going there. I was fortunate enough to have...

    I am new to this forum and just wanted to take the time to share something with others. I have had quite a few different detectors in the past. Tested many head to head and had settled on a DFX. I sold the DFX before winter and then purchased a new V3 a couple weeks ago. To make a long story...
