    Buying an X70..have a few questions.

    Hi there, I'll be getting an X70 in a few days and was wondering if I can get a few questions answered. Some I'll find out for myself when I get it, others require outside assistance. Regardless, the answers might help someone else. I'll be using it for prospecting, as well as coin/relic...

    What's the scoop on the XTerra 70 re. prospecting and

    how does it compare to other detectors like the MXT, GMT, GB1, LST etc.? I've already got a PI for the big stuff and am looking for something to get the little stuff. Having used the MXT in the past for prospecting, I know thatit will find a 1/3 grain nugget with the 6x10" DD. If the X70 can...

    Can the coil cable be extended on the Xterras?

    I plan on getting an X70 for prospecting and all 'round use.. which includes wading. It would be nice to have the control box hip/chestmounted to avoid water damage (splashes/waves). Has anyone looked into extending the coil cable? I know it can be done with many other detectors with short...

    Saddling up that ol' "When's it coming" horse..

    .. 'cause I tell ya, with the Xterra70, unless Garrett comes out with something soon... they will lose a lot of sales (including mine). I say this 'cause I prospect a lot and the X70 seems to be the detectoer Whites should have produced to replace the MXT. I had found over $4000 in nuggets with...

    Hey Andy! A question about the Xterra 70 and gold.

    It doesn't seem like anybody has addressed this question, and (for me at least) it's a major one in a detector (I prospect). Have you, or anyone else tested it to see just how small of a gold target it can see (preferably a nugget)? There are a lot of detectors out there that people say "are...

    Flogging a dead horse.

    I know, I know, the question of new detector models from Garrett is asked too often.. but I gotta ask anyway. Actually, I'm interested in a hybrid gold/relic/coin detector with some gold specific functions. It's about time Garrett did something about the Gold Stinger; it's (in my mind at least)...

    How does the Ace 250 compare on small gold?

    Hi y'all. I was thinking about getting a lightweight backup detector and was thinking about the Ace 250. One thing that has me curious is the sensitivity to small gold. I'm not talking rings, I'm talking small.. Tesoro small. Has anyone compared the 2 brands? I'm kinda waffling between the Ace...

    Pulse induction or pure B.S.?

    Something has been bothering me for some some time, and what it consists of is claims that a number of what I'd consider VLF detectors are really PI. These are the multifrequency detectors (EX II, Sov., DFX, CZ), and I've been hearing jargon being slung left right & centre; frequency domain...

    Fisher 1235x control box & coil SOLD!!

    I have the control box for a 1235x (which is, at present non-operational) and the stock coil. I bought the setup as is and was told that it's the on/off switch which is the trouble. I dunno, since I couldn't get it going & was more interested in the control rod & mount anyway. I'll sell it for...

    Need help with trimpots on a 1235x

    Hi there. I just picked up a 1235x which needs a bit of repair and was wondering if anyone knows which trimpots on the circuit board affect what. I might want to modify it also 'cause I hear that they are deep detectors & an external GB would be beneficial. ..Willy.

    My GTI 2000 Gold findin' mini-test results.

    Okay folks, this is mostly a copy 'n paste from another forum I posted on; it takes forever for me to type stuff out and I just couldn't get up the energy to do it again. Couldn't find my 1 grain test nugget, so had to shave off some lead. If the pic loads properly, you'll see the relative sizes...

    2 questions regarding the Sovereign GT

    Wondering if anyone has used the GT for prospecting &, also, how does it react to coins from other countries. I've had 2 Sov's & 1 Excalibur & found them to be truly lacking in sensitivity to low conductors & horrible with Canadian coins. In total, I put in about 6 months of solid detecting with...
