First hunt in a road side curb he pounded with his Etrac and other detectors found a1864 Indian 3 wheat's clad and a lead solder. He called me Friday and said so far he's impressed. Second hunt today Sunday at a very...

    For Sale Garrett AT Pro with stock coil.

    This AT Pro is used, signs of use large decal held on with shipping tape, small scuff on screen and small cracks and chip on bottom of coil. I have used in the field a few times and found with the coil cord Velcro is much more stable. Worked well for me, but need to thin the herd. Land...

    While back I heard a wireless headphone wouldn't work for the Sovereign

    Got a Deteknix transmitter and receiver to see if this is true. Problem with my Sovereign there was no way to mount the transmitter on the rod assembly. Problem solved I mounted the small box on the arm cuff with the two bands that came with the kit. The headphones I used are Jolly Rogers, which...

    Sovereign GT and Elite battery pack options

    Got a couple of rechargeable battery packs so I took one pack just to see how cheap and effective this method would be. My goal the batteries should be fully charged in 8-10 hours so a NIMH 900 mah battery might work. Another important factor this pack must hold a charge for at least 10 hours...

    Three items I just got for my 2018 season.

    I got a Lesche 18 inch Sampson shovel. My brother has been telling I should use one of these shovels for the last two season's ,his argument its quicker to retrieve targets, easier on the hands, and better for the landscape. Just got a Detech 13'' Ultimate coil for the Sovereign. Had a SEF 10...

    Has anyone used a X-Terra for water hunting.

    The X-Terra seems to have ideal possibilities to be turn into a great wader.The control box is compact and light,high frequency range with a simple coil change,and tone ID.Transition into a wader would require a three foot patch cord,kayak vest with a back pocket and (wireless headphones...

    Cheap rod assembly for a X-Terra

    Bought a X-Terra 50 control box off of Ebay for a cheap price.To save money I modded an old Fisher S rod so the X-T control box could be mounted. I used a 3/4 inch PCV T pipe with a 1/2 inch PCV plug. The T cost 44 cents and the 1/2 plug 88 cents.The S rod assembly needs to be cut close to the...

    Small trip next week.Groomed park so the Sovereign will be the best tool.

    This park is a couple hours away and looking forward to a new place to search.Very critical not to disturb the ground too much in this very old park so the 800 coil will be mounted.What I can tell you is in this park its suppose to be haunted by a lady dressed in white,I'll just keep my...

    With the Sovereign and Excalibur being one of the best beach water detectors how many would consider being on a recovery posse for lost jewelry.

    This recovery would be for someone who lost a family heirloom at the beach or in the water.Example Pete would be able to help someone in the Virginia area or Ralph could help someone find a ring in LA.I do realize that there would be many glitches with a national list, but this could be good PR...
