    Spectra... first thoughts

    There is nothing in the updated versions that makes the unit PERFORM better in terms of detection capabilities. The changes have been covered and there are no issues outside of the audio - and the unit is fine as is with version 1.0 as many here can attest to. So I think inciting people to...

    Spectra... first thoughts

    and in doing so, I think you will be hard pressed to find one that offers more service - customer focused service - than Whites. Take a look at the posts on some of the other brand forums where people bought a "top end" detector for a lot of money as well only to find the unit, coil charger . ...

    Dog days of summer are great . . . . . especially when you can kick yourself :veryangry:

    Not sure about other areas of the country but the Carolina's are baking with high heat and no rain for the last few weeks . . . . even sites in the woods (loaded with ticks and copperheads as I found out Friday afternoon) are rock hard when you try to dig . . . . . Went out today to try and...

    Urgent help for saving my vacation - New White spectra v3 detect every time

    It is understandable that LAVOIEJR is frustrated with a new detector that is acting up. Many of us have sent him ideas or suggestions . . . but a few points to take away from this: 1) Buying a brand new detector and not having any detecting experience before a vacation - and especially a high...

    Urgent help for saving my vacation - New White spectra v3 detect every time

    If you are able to try a different coil and confirm it is the issue, you can get it replaced no problem. Even if you order another coil - a 950 or 5.3 say, you will have a functioning detector and get the DD replaced thru Whites. Take a deep breath - it may be frustrating but that's the...

    Urgent help for saving my vacation - New White spectra v3 detect every time

    Do you know of anyone that has another V3, XLT, DFX or MXT? If so, see if you can borrow the coil from their detector and see if that corrects the problem. A bad coil could cause what you are seeing. Another thing is electrical interference. There may be issues from lighting, radio...

    Exchanging files for the E-Trac

    Since the E-Trac first came out there have been threads talking about swapping files for discrimination pattens, modes or settings. Minelab's vision was that this would be a selling point and allow people to leverage experience and share files. The problem with that is the wide variation in...

    Got to the beach with my V3 :clapping:

    Jim, Thanks for the information . . . . . I hope you mean you are getting great depth not bad depth by "sick" . . . . . I assume the 950 is working well on your beaches. Plan on trying a 950 coil with a friend of mine's V3 this weekend in Charleston Andy

    A few points to consider when posting finds & experiences on forums - ANY FORUMS!

    We are fighting an uphill battle and while I am sure I will take some heat for it, the FMDAC is more interested in working on the next big hunt than doing what needs to be done proactively to protect the sites we have access to. There are some very simple things we all can do to enhance our...
