    AT Pro Stock coil question

    How does the stock coil on the AT Pro pinpoint? I really prefer the new 5x8 coil they have in their spring package special. For the guys that are using the AT Pro on the beach what coil are you using? Thanks!

    Out with the Compadre ...

    I took out the Compadre yesterday to a few tot lots and I dug a ton of trash! I'm looking for the jewelry so I set my disc between the I and the R on IRON. I was really surprised how deep I was digging trash with the Compadre. In the end ...besides a gazillion pulltabs I found a few nickels...

    That little Compadre ...

    Went out tonight with the Compadre for a little bit this afternoon. First time really using it. I found the usual junk and a nice Craftsman box opener. I was surprised how deep the Compadre was hitting. My setting was just above Iron and below foil. One thing about these dig and beep...

    I got tired thinking about it ...

    I have gotten so tired of reading about the Compadre that I just ordered one. Seems to me like that is probably the best "tot lot" detectors on the planet. And the good news is that even the grand-kids can even use it. Those who have them sure seem to love it !! Happy Hunting

    A golden question?

    For those who are using the golden umax ..... How are you running it to disc out pull tabs and still find the gold? Specifically, where are you running your disc and notch etc? Seems to me that you always run the risk of losing some. Or ... would you be better off just using the cibola...

    Hello! I am going to take a short mini vacation to either Tampa or Fort Lauderdale this Feb. Would love to hook up with someone who uses the Xtera 705. I'm going to try and learn what I can before I go but a few good pointers in person never hurts. I'll buy lunch! Larry

    How sweet it is .....

    About a year ago I purchased the M6 and sold it only because I was trying to chase down what I thought would be a better detector for C&J. Long Story short! I purchased another M6 and went out with it yesterday to do a little hunting ..... and ....as Jackie Gleason would say ....... "How...

    Back to the trusty M6

    Gosh ..... the game of musical detectors finally ended. I tried several of the Whites, several of the Minelab and the Tesoro.
