    X-TERRA 305 QUESTIONS

    I have been looking at the 305 recently as a backup detector. Can anyone tell me about the performance, depth, problems, etc. with the X-terra 305? I have mainly owned Fisher and Tesoro detectors and presently own a Fisher CZ5 and a Tesoro Cortes for coin and jewelry hunting. Basically what I'm...

    FIRST SHORT HUNT WITH THE CORTES

    Got to take my recently acquired Cortes out last week end for a short hunt. A friend and I hunted a small yard that he had gotten permission to hunt. Not much was found except a few clad coins and one wheatie and the always present junk. From what I had read about the Cortes I was expecting it...

    CORTES ON THE WAY

    Always wanted to try a Cortes and now have one coming on thursday. I read good reviews and bad reviews about the Cortes, but for hunting coins in manicured lawns I think it will be a great detector. It may not be the deepest detector on the market but if it will hit coins from 6 to 8 or so...

    first time out with the Omega

    I got to spend an hour or so out hunting with my new Omega this afternoon. Was using the 11" coil with sensitivity at 70, disc at 16, and d3 tone and hunting in an area that I have hunted hard before. I found 2 clad quarters, 3 clad dimes, and 3 pennies with the Omega. Nothing impressive, but...

    Omega came today

    My Omega 8000 came today. Never got a chance to take it outside but did play with it indoors. It seems to be of decent construction.... nothing like the old Fisher detectors I'm used to, but time will tell I guess. The detector is very lightweight and the controls are simple to operate and easy...

    Omega 8000 on the way !

    I have been wanting to try a Teknetics detector for a while, and was looking at the Delta. Although the Delta looks like a nice detector, the Omega really caught my eye. Much more information on the screen than the Delta for not much more money, so I have an Omega coming with the 10" concentric...

    Fisher 1266x

    Ran across a pretty nice 1266x the other day and brought it home. Fisher created a beast when they built the 1266x.....solid as a rock and built to last..... more than I can say for some of the new stuff out there. I have owned almost all of the 1200x series starting back in about 1982 with a...

    DELTA 4000 QUESTION

    I have been looking and reading about the Delta 4000 and it seems to be a good detector from the responses owners have posted about it. My problem is if I buy a Delta I will have to sell my Silver

    A MESSAGE FROM HEAVEN

    I wanted to share this with the members of this forum. I was doing some yard work today, raking and picking up sticks that had blown out of the soft maple trees in my yard. It was warm, almost 78 degrees today, but windy and I was getting hot,so I grabbed a glass of tea and sat down to cool off...

    CZ 5" coil depth

    I would like to hear what kind of depth CZ users are getting with their 5" coils on a dime. I'm using a CZ5 with 8" and 10 1/2" coils and am getting deep silver dimes at up to 10" or so using 0 disc and sensitivity of 6 with volume at max. I'm hoping the small coil will hit some of the deeper...

    snap on shaft mount needed

    I'm trying to find a snap on plastic mount kinda like Fisher used to use on their freq. shifters back in the late 80's or early 90's. I need something similar to mount a depth master on my Silver

    Silver

    Most of the older hunters on here are familiar with the Depthmaster signal enhancers from the 80's and 90's that were made by Detector Electronics. They plugged into the headphone jack and the headphones plugged into the Depthmaster unit and were held on the detector control box with velcro...

    First hunt of the year tomorrow.

    After a few warmer days the snow has melted and I'm ready to take the cz5 out to the old picnic grove tomorrow to see what I can find. The grove covers about 5 acres and still produces some old silver coins despite the fact I first hunted it in 1986. The last few silver coins I found there were...
