    Alternative grips for F75?

    I had a couple 75s and was always disappointed by the cheapo foam wrap and the wobbly control head especially for what was once a $1000 flagship machine. When the first handle became too dirty to stand i peeled it off and used a small pool noodle wrapped with that self adhering vet wrap stuff. I...

    New digger.

    I had one , strictly a soft ground tool which we have little of here. The bride uses it now in her garden of black dirt. I prefer the narrow blade of the Lesche style and like a hand guard at the handle junction for additional surface to push on which is very important when the ground is hard...

    Giant crystal

    I would guess garnet. If you crush it up real well and glue it to some stiff paper you might be able to sell it as sandpaper

    LG 30 12 x 9 Search Coil

    It's effortless to swing just like the standard coil but even the 13.5" one was not that hard to swing all day. I don't hunt large fields with few targets so weight is seldom an issue since I'm always digging targets. I had no trouble swinging the CTX with the 18" coil all day for that very reason.

    LG 30 12 x 9 Search Coil

    YEP!!!!! I picked one up from Richard when they had the combine with the carbon lower rod which I think is a bust as I get some play in the shaft I didn't have with the standard shaft but the coil is a winner. I had been using the larger one a lot but don't feel I have given up much depth or...

    Lithium batteries

    what brand?

    Lithium batteries

    I have had mixed results with both lithium and Ni-Mh but the idea is sound , just seems to be a matter of brand. I bought some EBL 9v for my Garrett pinpointers and they worked for a while and about half of them just stopped charging. I still use them but have found Harbor Freight has 4 , 9v at...

    legand tone

    That's way too complicated for me , oldkoot , I have one bin and 50 tones and haven't changed the pitch in so long I would probably have to get the manual to do it;)

    calabash digger depth test with the light

    Hard to believe that it hit the target or that you watched the video?

    legand tone

    I always hunt in full tones , no bins just a select few VDI numbers disced out. I feel that allows the full range of tones to develop a bit of a language. When I used the White's with 100 number scale it was too much , that 50 to 60 tones range is something my mind can deal with.

    legand tone

    The tone adjustment doesn't really seem to make that much of a difference in target tones to my ears , threshold tone does change things up a bit however. It's nothing like on the etrac/CTX where you could actually over modulate targets on the extreme adjustments. Certain threshold tone...

    Lg24

    I will agree with that!! I have the 24 and found it to be a nice little coil for tighter areas , no issues with the sound but the LG 30 is a BEAST! I have found it works on my larger sites better than the 13" and has really taught me to not ignore those deep chirps that it is so good at...

    legand tone

    Over a decade on the etrac and CTX ruined me when it comes to tones and the Legend sucks in comparison just like all the others I had. One of the reasons I dumped the Nox 800 shortly after I got it was the poor tones when I still had a functioning CTX to use. I had hopes the Manticore would...

    Legend frequencies

    I frequently hunt in 4khz because it has proven to be a little deeper in my dirt that mostly balances below 10 , especially if there are a lot of old bottle caps around and time is limited. I usually run 5 or 6 recovery and for some reason above that the SMF(M3) seems to give me more "chirps"...

    Can anyone ID this? Old farmers cant….

    Going along with OL's idea I can see this being a clevis used where quick adjustment of a chain's length is necessary and locking the perpendicular link in the "notch" allows for solid attachment but also allows for quick adjustments , especially if the clevis was attached to an upright object.
