    Can we revisit coils again?

    I want to add a small coil to my collection. I think I will sell my 10x12 SEF and use the 10" Tornado for my big coil. I have a 8" Coinsearch coil that I have been using for my small coil but I feel a smaller one yet is needed. Some of my area's are loaded with junk target's and I get 3-5 hit's...

    Yesterday's old park hunt!

    Yesterday's hunt could be my last of the year it's going to get cold next week and probably freeze up. I made a trip back to the old park where I found the two Barber's last week. I would be at the park for about 5 hour's. The first two consisted of digging a few 177 to 180 number's but turned...

    somemore old silver

    Today I had a few hour's to kill so I decided to go over to a nearby town that has a really old park in it. I last detected here in the early 80's but started here in 1976. After arriving I started swinging right in front of the car but after a couple of swing's a group of young girl's arrived...

    Changing the threshold tone

    Can the threshold tone be changed? Mine has a low gravelly tone to it, it also has the Dixie mod's done to it. I don't know if a Gt without the mod's would sound any different as this is the only GT I've ever seen. I like the way mine sound's when the threshhold comes back after notching out a...

    What would you do?

    Just a hypothetical question. In this day and age where most of the public places have been pounded to death and the good target's are far and few between,someone came up to you and asked you to choose a place to detect and you could only have one coil to do it.Would you choose a trash infested...

    The "S" in Sunray

    Does the "S" in front of the number means that it is for Sovereign? So if someone came across a used one, say an S-12 it would be for a Sovereign. Thanks Gary

    Using full Disc

    Do any of you guy's ever wonder if you're missing some good stuff by cranking up the disc. to max and maybe begin to doubt your ability find deep coin's because of this? Just curious cause I can't help but to think that if your machine isn't making a bunch of racket all the time a guy would be...

    I got two Barber dimes today!!!

    But can any of you give me a little insight as to why? I went to a fairground's today that I have been to dozen's of times over the year's starting back in the 70's. It used to be full of old stuff but like most places it's been picked to death. I go there when I only have a couple of hour's to...

    I had another really good learning experience today

    This is nothing new to you guy's who have mastered the Sovereign,but to me it is priceless and maybe it will help other's who are new with the Sovereign. I had a couple of hour's to kill today so I decided to go over to a fairground's that is about 15 minutes away. A few year's ago this is where...

    Using Notch

    There hasn't been much talk about using notch. Does anybody use it? I think I see a distinct advantage in using it in a flip-top plagued area. What other good targets may notched out when notching out flip-tops? I used it the other day at a fair grounds and the GT wasn't going off every few...

    A taste of humble pie is good now and then

    I think I may have over stated my confidence and ability as a detectorist a while back. Some of you know that I bought a GT a while back and I made some statement's about being pretty sure I could master the tones with ease and I would be on my way to finding those old coin's in a flash, "not"...

    I took my GT outside yesterday

    I just played around a bit and didn't take my digger as the ground is hard as cement yet. Most of the snow is gone so what the heck give it a try. I did verify some thing's that you guy's have said and what I have read in the manual and some book's that I have. I only used the quick start...

    Minelab the company and minelab dealer's

    After asking about the toggle switch boot's it occured to me that Minelab should really put these on at the factory. They can only cost the company a couple of dollar's to put these on. And to the Minelab dealer's, instead of a bunch of thing's most established detectorist's don't want,put...

    Rubber boots for Sovereign

    I accidentally posted this question on the Explorer page earlier. Mr. Clynick suggests putting rubber boots on the toggle switches of the Sovereign. I think he was talking about the older Sov. Is it still necesary with the Gt or did Minelab correct the problem? Thank's Gary

    Toggle switch boot's

    Mr. Clynick suggests rubber boots for the Sovereign but I think he was referring to the older one's. Does the GT still need these or did Minelab correct the problem? Thanks Gary

    I ordered a SEF EXcelerator coil

    I talked to Tony at Kellyco today about a coil for my GT and I bought the 10x12 SEF. I have a small coil and the stock coil for my Gt and I thought I should have a high performance coil also. To be perfectly honest though after reading about the succes that Bryce and Derrel have had with their's...

    DETECTOR PRO PIRATE

    What do you think about this machine????
  20. G

    I've been getting interested in shallow water and

    beach hunting. I have never done this before but i've metal detected for year's. I currently have a new GT and an XLT that is a little over a year old. I would want a machine made specifically for water so if it got wet it wouldn't hurt anything. I don't want to spend over about $600. What do...
