    Relatively new to MD, totally new to water searching, need advice

    Hi, As the subject states. The first advice I think I need is on the specific MD's I should consider getting. I'd like something that has some form of ID, since my hearing descrimination stinks. I'd like something in the middle to upper price range (more middle than upper, if possible)I think...

    Help needed to START the ID process....

    And I do mean START. When I dig up a blob of old rust, what's the first step to remove enough rust to determine what it might be? Thanks in advance, Tagamet

    New Pocket Uniprobe with warranty card FS

    Need advice on freshwater beach C$ settings.

    I went to a freshwater beach to search this past weekend and found enough bobbi pins and "scrunchies" to open a beauty salon. The problem I was having involved falsing on the black sand. Here and there it would indicate a solid 30's ID that was repeatable until I dug. I tried every combination...

    Need advice on searching inside a museum.

    I got a call last week from the exec dir of the local historical society museum. They had just moved a refrigerator to do some restoration work and found a trap door in the floor. There's about a 3 foot crawl space under the existing (newer)kitchen that had originally been outdoors. It's...

    "Whatcha DOin MISSSSter?

    A large part of the pleasure I derive from dirtfishing is that I get a chance to do something outdoors and alone. I've worked with special ability kids for 34 years, so I'm not too interested in having children joined at the hip watching me search. When metal detecting and approached by a child...

    When the ID Edge comes out.....

    will it be "covered" in this classroom too? I have one ordered. I wish I hadn't said "I don't NEED another cap. That logo is really cool! Tagamet PS Still climbing the learning curve of the C$. A tad on the heavy side, but very happy with it's functions.

    Gettysburg/York, PA area info?

    I'm going to be at Hoffman Homes (for children) near Gettysburg, PA on 11/11 - 11/12. Can anyone give me a lead or two to some areas that I might be able to get permission to search for relics? I'd love to find my first musket ball or button! Thanks in advance, Larry

    Need help with Gettysburg area

    Hi all, I'm going to be in the Gettysburg area for just one day (11/11/05). Is there anyone in the area that can give me a lead on where I might be able to get permission to search for that day? I'd be happier than a pig in slop if I could find a single musket ball. Thanks in advance, Tagamet

    Tone volume and PP #'s don't "match"

    Every now and again (but at least 2 or 3 times on every trip out), I get a high tone signalling a good target, but when I use PP, it reads in the single digits and the volume's increases/decreases don't correlate to the low numbers. In other words, the very low numbers might be going down, while...

    I'm at 440. 525 next?

    What should I expect if I try 525? I'm guessing that the machine will "sound off" on targets that are more "iffy". If that's the case, it would follow that the C$ will also be sounding off more often. Would it be more advisable to keep the thresh and sens as they are now, and just un-notch...

    I know the C$ is "splash proof, but

    can they be used in the rain without a cover? Thanks, Tagamet
