    T2SE

    As I have read the T2 is an excellent relic hunter. But, do any of you have success with it at school yards, older homes in urban areas and parks where there are much more to contend with such as all the modern trash and not just iron??? IF so, would you be kind enough to share what settings...

    Price and MXT package deals

    kind of ticks me off. I have all those things. Talk to a dealer or Whites and you have to get the package deal. All I want is the detector. And I dont want to spend my time trying to sell the extras. Ive read some getting help with the coil swap out also. The dealers I talked with close to...

    I havent posted on this forum or any forum for that matter in some time now, but still lurk around reading. I am just about to drop the coins on a MXT Pro. I wanted the MXT because of its two tone relic mode and disc abilities ( where I run just enough to disc out a nail, but do like the...

    looking at an old plat,from early-mid1800s. I see where they drew in 7 or 8 houses along a river and lookin at that plat, the houses are right on the river.

    XL Pro, as I set it up most times in a nastier spot,using the 5.3 coil... Ground balance-a bit positive, listening for a small rise in the threshold and a bit needle movement as I lower it to ground and lock the setting. M6, I bob the coil per manual instructions, turn the signal/sensitivity...

    Well, you may have a point there and probably do. Running the Pro with with a tad bit on the positive side of the threshold, I like to see my needle twitch just a tad as its lowered to the ground, then hunting in the SAT mode, but , and I already know what you will say,lol, I run the M6 with...

    That is interesting and good news, for you and your black sand beaches. Jerry, you know Kieth Southern wrote a post in the MXT forum where he used the 8X6 coil and praised it, this is interesting, I mainly use round concentrics myself and like you have an XL Pro I still make use of it. I dont...

    68 degrees, sunshine, man it was like

    a spring day here, so I decided to go out for a spell. We had so much rain, no way I was gonna hit the old soybean fields so I suited up the old M6 with a 5.3 coil and went to a small tot lot a richy neighborhood. Seems I wasnt the only one enjoying the sunshine, as I was the first there...

    Stupid,Stupid,Stupid

    Got off work a bit early today. Headed out to a bean field where I found evidence of homes in a couple spots. It was about a half mile walk across the field,muddy field in some places. I was in a hurry and didnt check my battery status so I guess you guys know what happened when I got across...

    M6/MXT users,

    Well, I posted this on the Whites forum but maybe its better over here. My main detector is the XL Pro. I hunt old home places, usually in fields or woods. Im not getting rid of the Pro, love it; but parts are becoming scarce for it so Im starting to research and look for another machine. I...

    both machines?? I primarily use my XL Pro, I enjoy hunting old farm,home places...usually in a plowed field or woods. But, as much as I like my XL Pro, I am investigating,considering the thought of replacing him with a newer machine as parts are becoming slim for that magical machine. I will...

    a few thoughts/questions I have

    Trying to put some thoughts together,you guys are truly helpful. I hunt a lot of plowed fields, Ive read the Soverign needs to be kept/coil swept right on top of the ground. Difficult to do in a plowed field,especially if it is in rows and not disced flat. I love the idea it hates iron, can...
