    Banning the truth

    Watch some of Calabash Digger reviews on YouTube, I really enjoy them. He states that he/we are tired of manufacturers making claims on there new detectors, then when you test them they fall far short of those claims. I wont mention the manufacturer he was reviewing, but I almost bought that...

    Banning the truth

    Is it true that Finds Treasure Forum banned Calabash Digger? I like him as he always post the truth about metal detectors

    Getting back into detecting - which machine?

    Check out the Minelab Vanquish 540 pro pack, it's a multi-frequeintcy detector that also performs great on the beach. Great detector for the money

    fixed ground balance on the vanquesh

    I recently bought a Minelab Vanquish 540 and I really like it. I have had zero issues with it not having GB. It goes deep. I can run it on full sensitivity our 1 notch down.

    Just a short comparison/observation about the Fisher f44 and a vanquish 440...nothing scientific here fellas

    Just curious how the Vanquish vs Simplex on land turned out. I dont hunt in the water. Which is better on the land/field. Thanks

    Swing speed

    I'm looking forever to purchasing the 10" coil. From what I'm reading it doesn't lose much depth to the 12" yet it's better in moderately trash areas and less EMI prone.

    Anyone using the Minelab Vanquish?

    Yes I have done that. You know the only thing that worries me about the Vanquish is no GB but I believe from what I'm reading is that the multi-frequeintcy is very forgiving. Also with the pro pack I could always throw the 8" coil on, I hear that's better then the 12" in high mineralized soil.

    Swing speed

    Good idea, will do. I been wanting to bury various coins at various depths to test the difference between my 8" and 12 coils using the Minelab Vanquish 540. With that said I'll test my swing speed as well...

    Swing speed

    I'm currently using the Minelab Vanquish 540. When I get around to using the 8" coil, do I need to adjust my swing speed, slower or faster? Due to the weather I didn't get a chance to try the 8" coil, I'm an anxious to try it out.

    Bought a new Minelab Vanquish 540 pro pack

    I been really happy with my Vanquish. I have a Fisher F22 so going to the Vanquish 540 was a pleasant upgrade. I'm new to the hobby and actually found my first silver 1905 dime the other week. Have you ever tried the 10" coil, almost seems like it would me nice to have

    Anyone using the Minelab Vanquish?

    Thanks. I been able to use the 540 just 1 click down on the sensitivity. I haven't used the 8" coil yet, I'm interested in seeing how it performs. I hear nothing but good reviews on it

    How good is the Simplex+

    When you talk about discriminating the bottom 3numbers on the ID scale, are you referring to when you run the 540 in all metal mode?

    Anyone using the Minelab Vanquish?

    I recently bought a Minelab Vanquish 540 pro pack and it’s awesome. Your Nox has ground balance, the 540 doesn’t, has that been an issue.

    Anyone using the Minelab Vanquish?

    I recently bought the Minelab Vanquish 540 and really like it. I only used it a few times before the weather shut me down. Haven’t tried the 8” coil, did you give that coil a shot yet. Was there much difference between the 10” and 12”coil, like depth, less noise etc

    Anyone using the Minelab Vanquish?

    I recently bought the Minelab Vanquish 540 pro pack. It’s a great machine, was only able to use it a few times before the weather shut me down. Have you tried the 8” coil. If so what do you think, how was the depth.

    VDI numbers on the Minelab Vanquish 540

    Appreciate the feedback. I'm going to try out the 8" coil on my 540. I hear nothing but good reviews.
