    What happened to my post?

    Sounds to me like you are happy with what you have and that it's serving you well. Ok then, congratulations, you just saved a bunch of money! One of my best detecting buddies has an XLT and I know he has found hundreds of silver coins and two $10 gold coins in the past few years. There is...

    What happened to my post?

    OK, Rather than get involved in the debate, I will try to answer the question you have posed. First of all, I do not work for White's, but I do count one of their employees as a friend and detecting buddy. End of disclosures. I bought a used XLT in August of 2006 and enjoyed using it a lot...

    Deep Silver

    I'm very interested in the Deep Silver program and I hope lots of folks write in with their experiences. I'm still looking for my first silver coin with the V3, but I've mostly been spending hours and hours just getting used to this great machine and all it can do in Hi Pro. Thanks, Mike

    Anyone used "Deep Silver" program much?

    Hi, Anyone out there used the Deep Silver program much? What are you finding? How deep are you getting? Any experiences to share? Thanks, Mike

    Attention Whites or other coil builders

    I thought of a similar idea--it would be like a zoom lens on a camera. It would start at a certain size and you could zoom it smaller and smaller as you needed. The idea is good, but the fleshing it out is probably pretty tough. Mike

    Got one!!!!! Now the questions change

    Thanks for the responses so far. I'll have to start tweaking things to see if I can get things to calm down a bit. Then maybe I will be sharing some nice silver coins! Like I said before, I really believe in this machine and I know that it's just a matter of time before I get the hang of it...

    My first gold coin in

    What a fantastic find! I can't wait to start understanding my Vision better so I can report some good finds as well. Thanks for the good photos and happy hunting into the future! Mike

    Got one!!!!! Now the questions change

    Ok, add my name to the list of Vision owners. Now I'm no longer all that interested in the "comparison" class of questions, but instead, how to evolve from a dedicated XLT user into a Vision user. I've read the "all you need to know" pamphlet that came with the detector, and many of the posts...

    vco in coin mode

    Maiden voyage lasted about 2 hours and was better than I expected.

    Nice finds! I got my Vision today too, but my first voyage was just plain confusing. I have a ton to learn. Clearly I need some coaching. Mike

    Roll Call

    Add OregonMike to the list of proud Vision owners. I'm looking forward to learning the machine well and hope it won't be long before I can post some nice finds! Thanks to everyone for their patient answers to my questions. This was a major purchase for me and it took a lot of questions and...

    Deciding on cordless hdphones or not

    Thanks AK As usual you have provided useful information. I was going for the headphones until I filed my income taxes and discovered that Uncle Sam needs to raid my savings account to give the equivalent of a new Vision with the headphones to some rich millionaires somewhere. Now I'm trying...

    Deciding on cordless hdphones or not

    I'm now at the 99% certain level that a Vision is in my future, but I'm not so sure about the cordless headphones. First, there's the cost, which raises the package price by over 10%. Second, and here's part of my question, I see them as a "frill" rather than a necessity for using the...

    Two specific questions about the Vision

    Hey, don't get me wrong...I'm GLAD the two have been correlated. I think it shows thoughtfulness on the part of White's to try to keep some things familiar while changing some other things to employ the latest technology. No way did I mean a criticism at all; I was just trying to figure out if...

    Two specific questions about the Vision

    Thanks to everyone who answered my first two basic questions. They made me want a Vision even more. I swear I am having to wipe the drool off of my keyboard! Ok, now a third question. I hope it's as easy for some of you as the other two... In my local soil, a clad quarter on a DFX reads 83...

    Two specific questions about the Vision

    Jason, You said, you can change the tones in several different ways to make targets sound any way you want them to. That's interesting to me. How do you do that? Sorry if this should be obvious, but I don't have the Vision yet and so I can't see it in front of me. Thanks, Mike

    Two specific questions about the Vision

    Hi, One of my buddies asked me to pose these two very basic questions: 1--Ignoring the visual signals, does a zinc cent SOUND any different from a silver dime? In other words, can you tell the difference just by listening? I would think that the tone ID would sound different, but I haven't...
