    anyone using the 11x13 coil? better than the 11" coil?

    I am thinking of buying the 11x13 coil but i would like to know from those that use it if it's better or goes deeper than the stock 11" coil? it would have to be a lot better to warrant the high cost i think but would like to know for sure if it's worth it. Thanks...

    No silver this time. seems like they are all gone :smile: but I managed to get one off my bucket list that I have always wanted to find, a nice 2 cent piece! not in the best of shape but i'll take it. the picture of the gilded button doesn't show up well but when I flipped the plug and saw gold...

    good days like this are few and far between...

    Got permission to hunt an fairly old school. they would only let me hunt in the back yard and half of that has a new building on it. the leaves are starting to turn their multi colors and it was sunny and cool in the morning, just nice temp for detecting. My buddy has the CTX3030 and found a...

    1st test of Coiltek 10x5 Coil

    i tested the new Coiltek 10x5 coil on the CTX3030 looking to see if it has any better separtion than the 11 inch coil. i don't know if this shows us anything clearly one way or the other yet. Unfortunately i will be out of town for a few weeks so i won't be able to really give it a good in...

    Cannot seem to find a comfortable way to adjust coil position

    I have the Deus for about 5 weeks or so and getting to know it more and more and hoping to make some goods finds with it. One of my problems is that I can't seem to find a comfortable position for the coil to be parallel with the ground. I am using the 11" coil.I try adjusting the shaft to...

    Finally a few good finds this detecting season...

    It has been a lousy detecting season so far this year. All the local parks and school grounds have been hit hard over the years and hit hard by me these last 2 and a half years since I got the 3030. So I did some research and found and old fairgrounds in a town about 30 miles away. I went to the...

    what is a good cover for the control box?

    I am looking for a good water resistant cover for the XP control box. something that I can see through well and that I can make adjustments while it is on especially if I get caught in the rain and maybe still want to continue detecting. thanks

    I hate 88 .....

    seems like the Deus really likes to find twist off bottle caps at 88.... same number as dimes... that is not fun... I couldn't find a way to get around that... if I notch out 88 then I don't find any dimes, especially silver ones... I was using the basic 1 program but I have virtually no ground...

    electrical chatter: how to de-tune it

    Got the Deus and took it out in the yard and as soon as I turned it on I had electrical chatter. Just a lot of little chirps and the coil was in the air as well as on the ground. I couldn't figure out how to get that to go away. I was using the first program, basic 1. I have a CTX3030 and when I...

    Hey CT Todd and GK Man: is this an ox knob?

    Since you guys have mentioned it or I saw it in the Dr.Tones movie where someone found an ox knob I wondered if this was one also. I found it last week and had no idea what is was and then I saw the ox knob in the movie and dug through my pouch and went AH HA!! it rings up as 12-41 or so in...

    where in the manual is how to save audio modes ?

    I can't seem to find in the manual or in the menus how to save audio settings for wireless, wired and speaker. i believe there is a way to save each of those audio profiles but cannot figure out how to do that. thanks

    Trade a new Minelab Pro Find 25 for a new Garrett Pro Pointer

    I had a Minelab Pro Find 25 pin pointer that was causing problems so I sent it back to Minelab and they replaced it with a brand new one. I don't like it and want to trade for a new Garrett Pro Pointer. All I have done since it came in the mail today is to put the battery in that Minelab sent...

    SunRay Pro Gold Headphones for sale

    Like new SunRay Pro Gold Headphones for sale. I have hardly used them so I might as well sell them and use the money for other detector stuff. They work fine and are problem free. I just don't like them. My main gripe is that i have to pull one side off to hear the pinpointer and half of the...

    anyone using the detector pro pistol pointer?

    I know it's not a CTX3030 question but I want to ask those of us that use the CTX about this probe. I have both the Minelab and Garrett probes and find that the Garrett is the better of the two but wonder if the detectorpro is better than the Garrett. thanks

    fast on and deep on while in manual sensitivity mode?

    I usually run in ferrous-coin, combined tone and sensitivity auto +3 but have been trying to do some manual sensitivity as well. Manual sensitivity makes it harder to operate because of the increased sensitivity but I can usually manage to sniff out good targets most of the time but I do get...

    what are we going to do now that our hotspot is gone?

    WOW !!! what a month. MentalMetalMike and I returned to our hot spot (see "Great day detecting and a dime grand slam" from June 15), http://www.findmall.com/read.php?86,1924325 and the goodies continued to roll in. This was an old school site that was being prepared for a new building, and our...
