    :whites: First impressions of the Vision :yikes:

    Hey there Mr Bill. Was wondering if you've ever tried out a Cointrax Baron in your test garden and how it compares. I had a modded Cobra II that would find things deeper with an 8" coil than other detectors with 9.5" to 10" coils could. seeing as a Cointrax is kinda like a Cobra II on steroids...

    Is the target size feature dependent on sweep speed?

    Or will it give basically the same size regardless of how fast or slow the detector is swept? If the latter, that would be a really neat feature. ..Willy.

    I have a Vision!

    ..have you been able to do any side-by-side tests between an MXT?GMT and the Vision? I'm kinda curious about it's small gold finding capabilities. ..Willy.

    Enhanced Cobra II F/S

    This puppy is a rare find indeed. Made for Kellyco by Discovery, this is basically a Treasure Baron with the ProHunter (minus the flashy LED's). We're talking deep and sensitive and about as common as hen's teeth. I got this in a package deal with a Cointrax Baron and I'm keeping the Cointrax...

    GOLD..

    The manual GB is nice, but it doesn't do very well down here. The MXT is one of the few VLF detectors that can handle the conditions reasonably well where I hunt. Even so, it's generally best to run it in HyperSAT (max) with tracking on. That's why I'm curious about the ground tracking/SAT. The...

    GOLD..

    Alright. enuff with the coins/relics, how 'bout gold? Specifically nugget style gold and bad ground handling. How does the Vision compare to the MXT for finding really small gold (subgrain) and ground handling? GMT? What's the difference between the med/low frequencies and the high frequencies...

    A detector that can see THROUGH iron/aluminum.

    Well, on the 'other' forum (t.r.e.a.s.u.r.e followed by n.e.t.) there's a guy that claims that his ML Etrac and Excalibur can see THROUGH a sheet of rusted 18 guage iron and accurately ID the silver dollar. the Etrac would also do this with a 1/8" aluminum plate. What do you guys think? I'm...

    Back in the saddle

    Well, after a lengthy absence, I'm about to get another MXT. It was tough, there are a few things I would rather see improved on the MXT, but it's about the best VLF unit that I've used for prospecting in bad ground. Have a GMT and, while it will find smaller stuff, the MXT has found much more...

    A question for Dave Johnson regarding the F70/75

    This has been bothering me for a while, so I figured that I'd ask. Why doesn't the F75 (and F70) have ground tracking? They're both upper end detectors and it would seem that, especially for prospecting in bad ground, ground tracking would be beneficial. There are less expensive detectors that...

    Woo Hoo!

    Talk about a trading/buying frenzy. Just traded my M6 for a Vaquero w. stock & 10x12" DD coils. Along with the 2 DD's I'm getting with the Diablo uMax, I'll have quite the coil selection. Might just have to sell my GMT now. If the Diablo turns out to be hot enough on the small stuff, the GMT...

    Diablo uMax

    Anybody here ever use one? One came up for sale on another forum and I managed to grab it. Wanted to try one for many a year, but they're like hen's teeth.. few people seem to want to part with their Diablos. Wondering what I can expect from it in bad ground and the relative sensitivity to small...

    Trade Magellan meridian Gold GPS for M6/MXT/DFX DD coil

    This is a mapping GPS and comes with RS232c data cord, user's manual. There's some light scuffs on the screen, but nothing that impedes viewing. Looking for a DD coil for my M6. ..Willy. BTW, I'd also sell it for $120 USD shipped.

    White's 8x14" DD Eclipse coil for DFX/MXT/M6 F/S or Trade

    I have an 8x14 DD Eclipse that I don't really need that I'd sell for $130 USD shipped in N.America or trade for an Excellerator 4x7" or 10x14" coil. The Eclipse doesn't have a coil cover and the sticker peeled off long ago, but works fine; I just hunt too much in the water and it's positively...

    F75.. has anyone tried hunting with..

    .. the trigger pushed forwards? should be like searching with ground tracking. Too bad they didn't see fit to have ground tracking on the F75, it would be a benefit when hunting over certain types of ground. ..Willy.

    Anyone interested in trading their DFX/Explorer II for an F75?

    'Cause that's that's what I'm looking to do (trade my F75). ..Willy.

    Does coil size make any difference with the Sov? Strange results..

    ..Was testing some coils on my Sov. GT (S8, Tornado 10", WOT, and 16.5" Excellerator EQ2) with my 5 grain test nugget and got some seemingly anomalous results. One would expect that a smaller coil would be more sensitive to smaller objects; well, such didn't seem to be the case (at least with a...
