    V3i vs VX3

    I had a V3i and sold it because it was just so complicated. Thinking of getting a VX3 now. Missing the good screen and excellent Discrimination. Is the VX3 easier to operate. I thought I was pretty efficient with the V3i but seemed to spend more time tweaking than hunting. Will I be happy...

    Disappointed in this Group

    I changed my Audio from Normal to Smooth and loved it. Why is nobody else running this?

    Advantage 600 or 800

    Still to see no claims of advances. For me the 600 would be fine because I do no prospecting but exactly what is this detector supposed to do better than my two Etracs.

    Deus

    We had two Etracs with good operators hunt the same place with a Deus and he kicked our rears. He is getting just a little more depth. My only thought is to run Deep On and Fast Off. Any other suggestions?

    Unusual Find

    Got out to hunt a little today and ground was so hard I almost quit. Found 5 Wheats, One Silver Ring, and this thing. I gave the Ring to the Owner and picked up another Property. This thing is unusual and I am close to Baylor University. So far nothing on it though.

    Etrac Settings and Tutorial

    Guys I am terrible at this but here is the Video I promised of Etrac, Settings, and Software. You need to expand this to full screen to watch it. I hope this will answer some questions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GuvXwMMzH9E&feature=youtu.be Here is a link to my Etrac Backup File for use...

    Dream House

    I have been trying to get permission to detect this house for at least 4 years and today I got it. I will not have long to hunt this because the Owner is remodeling it to rent out or sell. Looking at these pictures you can see why this house has great potential. Note it has a relatively clean...

    17 Wheat

    I think my Etrac is doing really good now that I have got this Manual Sensitivity thing figured out. I had a little time this afternoon and found this 17 Wheat a tad over 8" using an 8" Sunray Coil. I was running only about 16 Sensitivity which was as high as I could run but it did the job. I...

    Good SLQ

    Found this today in a Vacant lot in Waco TX For you Etrac users it gave a 10-47 running Manual at only 15 Sensativity. Ground was terrible. About 6" down in Gravel

    Etrac Settings Sensitivity figured out

    I am not new to my Etrac but I felt like I did not have this Sensitivity thing figured out for sure and I was right. I did an Air Test and found that simply changing from Auto to manual gained 2" on a Silver Dime. I did find that I was about as hot on Sensitivity as I could go using Auto. I knew...

    TC Metal Detectors

    I ordered a Sunray Finds Pouch from TC Metal detectors. I don't think they make these anymore. Did I mess up?

    Hot Etrac

    It was cold today but my Etrac was hot. I was finding Wheats way down deep. This a a picture of a Wheat I found at the bottom of this hole with my Coiltek 10X5 on the Etrac. I am running Auto +3. Crushed Screwcaps were really messing with me. Whoever lived at this House must have thrown them all...

    Whats up with this Wheat

    Look at this close. I take it to be a 1919D with some sort of error. I found this today at an old house and it was extremely deep. I don't think this is what they call Mint Condition, but that extra Metal on the last digit of the year is not damage.

    Sad or Glad

    Don't know how I feel. I bought a 6" DD and wound up with 2 Sun ray X-8 coils. My thinking was the X-8 was just a little deeper than my Coiltec 10X5 and left a little less foot print. I have to admit the Coiltek 10X5 is my favorite coil for the Etrac. I went to an old Park where I pulled some...

    My Experience with Wireless Headphones

    I started off buying this Transmitter https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NP9MYFM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Bright tech with apt-X. This transmitter was recommended by other Detectors who tried it and liked it. I also bought a apt-X receiver. While waiting for the Transmitter...

    Test of a Idea or maybe opinion

    In our search for depth, I am coming to believe that every coin we miss because it is too deep, I think we may be missing 3 to 4 because we do not have enough separation. I traded my big coil and all I have left is the stock coil. I bought two medium sized coils (8") and one 6" DD. going to hit...

    Etrac WOT 15" Coiltek

    I have posted this before and changed my mind but this time I am going to trade this Coil. I want to trade this Coil for a medium size coil. I would like a Sun Ray X-8 or Minelab 8" I do not want a Concentric

    Little Advice for New Hunters

    I just got permission for this House As you can see this house looks very old. When I got permission to hunt here I was told that two other Hunters had hunted this House. I know both these Guys and have hunted with one whom I consider a really good Hunter. This guy really has a good ear for...

    Feal Sorry for you Guys Up North

    I know for you Folks up North this is your off Season but believe it or not down here in Texas this is our best time of the year. The weather rarely gets too cold and this time of year the grass dies off opening up many places we can not hunt in the Summer.
