    Let's hear about them already!

    Larry, From what I have read, I (unfortunately) believe you are 100% accurate on this. I have been trying to find the best answer for my wife who is petite and all the MF and pulse detectors are just too heavy for her. Thanks for your input!

    NEL anyone ?

    Pescadore, That's great news! I was wondering if the weight and balance was better also. I checked one out at a dealer today (Treasuremaster) but I didn't like the balance of the 9" spider coil. The Sharpshooter is about 6 oz. lighter and attachment is in the middle instead of the back like the...

    Let's hear about them already!

    I plan to buy one for my wife but undecided about which model. Both are claimed to have a "beach" mode but that may be just marketing hype. I don't think a single frequency machine will perform well on beaches when you are detecting in and out of wet salt sand. I hope I'm wrong about that but...

    v3i beach settings

    I think the 12" (Super 12) is a better choice IF you can manage the extra weight. You get better coverage, depth, and less bouancy in the surf with it. IMHO

    V4!!!?!! Is the hype really true?!?

    My time will be better spent learning my new V3i and hunting with my DFX. I have a Whites dealer friend who will inform me if anything like that is on the horizon. Also, it's also a habit of Whites to repackage old technology and features for a "new machine" . The "new" Coinmaster GT is a prime...

    10x12 or is it 12x10 sef coil

    What would make the sef 10 x12 better that the Super 12 v nulled coil. You would think that a detector manufacturer would have better insight into how a coil works than someone who only makes coils. Unless of course Whites has some vested interest in Kellyco. IMHO.

    V4!!!?!! Is the hype really true?!?

    Even if the rumor is true, I think it will be at least a year or more before it's released for sale as it was with the TRX pin pointer.

    Looking for the old timers

    I'm an "old timer" but fairly new to this forum. I started with a Bounty Hunter Red Baron back in '76. Never owned a White's until 2012 when I bought my DFX. I now have a new V3i WHP still in the box. I like White's detectors and love this forum where one can ask a fair question without fear of...

    BETTER COIL FOR THE GAMMA.

    Is there a better performing/quieter coil for the Gamma than the 8" concentric that came with it? I bought it for my wife because of it's lightweightedness and I think I made a pretty good choice except I think it may be a little too chatty for her. I can turn the Sens. way down but sacrifice...

    WTB NEL OR 11" DD COIL FOR GAMMA 6000.

    Already have a 9" spider coil.

    A LITTLE HELP FROM THE GAMMA EXPERTS PLEASE!

    Took the new Gamma 6000 I bought for my wife out for the first time. Trying to learn the machine so I can teach her how to use it because she's really a novice. I have read the manual throughly so the ground balance using the GROUND GRAB feature worked quite well. But, being used to a DFX, I...

    Settings for EMI

    That is some great info especially when searching the grass strips next to sidewalks which frequently has overhead power lines.

    Tracking causes noisy operation

    I didn't realize the V had an auto GB feature. I have always used the manual GB as shown in the front of the manual.

    V3i vs DFX ( for those who have used both)

    Looks like the V3i for sure. May have used the DFX for the last time today. I'll hold onto it for a while though, until I'm comfortable with the V. Thanks for the feedback everyone!

    SUPER 12 FOR V3I?

    Hunting in open areas without a lot of targets like fields and beaches it great. Areas with EMI and lots of trash it's not too good!

    Giving the V3i Another Go

    I never read anything on that. Is it basically the same as the salt mineralization you have at the beach except uncompensated?

    WTB Teknetics Gamma 6000 (Used)

    Sold the GT which was too heavy for my wife. The Gamma doesn't have all the features of the GT but it's 1/2 the weight. (She doesn't want to wear a swing harness.)
