    550 Sniper - Waterproof?

    I know we've gone over this before, but I can't remember. Is the sniper coil for the GTAx 550 waterproof like all other Garrett coils? John

    Do you ever want to swat your hunting buddy?

    Every time I find a new area to hunt with my hunting buddy, within 20 yards of the truck he finds a wheat back. Well today he gets about 30 feet from the truck and yells out "Indian". Yep, 1904 Indian head penny. If it weren't for the fact that he likes to drive and I have problems driving...

    Gold Price by Carat Converter???? Where???

    A short while back someone posted a link to a site that converted the weight of gold by carat with the current prices to estimate the value. Does anyone have that link? I foolishly forgot to save it. John PS My pup got to meet his first skunk the other day. Good thing I keep the stuff on...

    Garrett service

    I know this has been brought up before, but what's the best contact and phone number for Garrett service? By the way, we're having "thunder snow" up here in Michigan right now! John

    With the snow showing up - what do you do in the winter?

    Mostly for the Northern hunters. With winter starting to hit, what hobbies do you have to keep you going in the winter? I research new areas to hunt (already have a nice list made) and make fishing lures. John

    GTAx 550 Gone

    Just got my new Garrett catalog and it looks like they're dropping the 550. Going to have to get the other coils I want for it soon then. It was my first Garrett and is a good backup to my 2500. John

    Photo resizing software

    I know we've covered this, but what photo resizing software do you use? Got a new system and can't find the CD of what I had. Thanks. John

    .54 Rimfire anyone?

    Me and my detecting buddy hit an untouched homestead site this morning and I came across a .54 cal. rimfire case. Having a hard time finding any solid info on it. Does anyone have any information? It's .540 ID and .903 overall length. I found a few references to a civil war round. Thanks. John

    2 Things I learned yesterday

    Myself and a detecting buddy hit a lot of hunting camp sites and often get good coins and the occasional jewelery. Yesterday we came across a site that in one 20 foot area you could tell people were there having a party. Tons of bottle caps and pull tabs shallow and on the surface. I kept the...

    Well I went and did it. 2500!

    Last week I finally decided it was time. Ordered the 2500 and it showed up today! Now if we could only get rid of the snow I could get out and try it. Tested it out inside and like what I see. Anybody want some free snow? Come and get all you want. John

    How long have you been swinging?

    While I've only been on this forum a short time I've realized there is a lot of experience here. How many years have you been at it? I've been swinging a detector for 10 years now. Wonder what our combined total will be. John

    Greetings all

    Greetings. Been lurking here for a few months now. I've been detecting here in Michigan for several years and last year got my GTAx550 and love it. Hunt mostly coins, abandoned homestead sites from about 1880-1930's for relics and hit some beaches. Have picked up several good tips here and...
