    9 Rings and other things....

    These are all water finds, stayed clear of land the last 2 days. Monday I hit the big lake, it was a beautiful day and the water was not like glass but very close. I was running my trusty AT-Pro with the standard coil. I ended up having my best silver ring count day yet. Monday I ended up...

    XP Deus Classroom needed here..

    The XP Deus is just as worthy if not more worthy then a few machines with classroom forums. It is just as programmable as the other machines and a proven machine. Please consider adding an XP Deus classroom to this forum.

    Any CTX-3030 users in SW Michigan?

    The 3030 being my very first Minelab product has me dazed and confused. I'm looking to find a mentor that can teach me at least the basics of what the detector is telling me. One very frustrating thing is pinpointing. On top of the ground or right under the surface its spot on. Get more then...

I have been running an AT-Pro and this week has been very good to me...found silver, gold, and platinum rings! So I decided it was time, if...

    AT-Pro Ring VDI numbers Video:video:

    I made this video to demonstrate some of the different VDI numbers that the AT-Pro displays for Platinum, 10K and 14K Gold, .925 (Silver), Tungsten, and Stainless Steel Rings. I made this video for more of the AT-Pro beginner, but it does contain interesting info for all AT-Pro users. Enjoy...

    Picking up a good as free V3i today...

    The back story first. In April of 2011 I purchased 2 brand new V3i's. One for myself and the other for my buddy who I convinced to jump into the hobby with me. Well I tried mine until early summer last year then got discouraged, sold it, and bought a different machine that I really have done...

    First PLATINUM...Thank You AT-Pro!!!

    I have found many Gold and Silver rings and jewelry but never any Platinum...that is until this morning. I had just arrived at the beach, surveyed the water, and just headed in. Literally about 20 steps in and in just over knee deep water I get a solid 52-53 VDI on the AT-Pro, showing approx...

    Sunday Morning hunt...Clad and 2 junk rings

    We had a pretty strong wind most of yesterday and the lake got really rough, so I decided not to chance it. Woke up today to find the wind had died down so headed for the beach. Ended up finding $6.07 in clad and 2 "new metal" aka "Junk" rings. I found all the clad but .17 in the dry sand...

    WTB: Basic Ear Training For Excalibur CD

    Anyone have a legit (original) copy of Tony Diana's " Basic Ear Training For Excalibur" audio CD that they are done with and want to sell? I need to have sort of an idea what I might be hearing so I can test an Excal II against a CTX-3030.

    4th of July early AM hunt after Fireworks

    Our fireworks were last night July 3rd...they got over at around 11PM. I waited until around midnight for the traffic to clear out before I headed for the beach. When I got there the police were running up and down the beach on a Kawasaki Mule kicking EVERYONE off the beach, even the can...

    I have a Nearly new Fisher CZ-21 with the 10.5" coil for sale. I got this brand new around 3 months ago...I have the receipt somewhere that will be included.

    AT Gold if you already have AT-Pro....??

    I already have 3 AT-Pro's and love them. One of them I do have the 5X8DD coil on, same as the ATG. My question for owners of BOTH machines...is it worth it? My local dealer told me "no" that since already have the AT-Pro its not worth investing in an ATG. Would like to hear the thoughts of...

    Need some advice from you seasoned Minelab owners...

    I have never run any Minelab detector but am trying to decide which machine either the CTX-3030 or the Excal 2 would best suit my needs. First off I ONLY hunt freshwater beaches and lakes...I never do any inland hunting...ever. I currently run an AT-Pro and absolutely clean up with it...but it...

    Quarter, Quarter, Quarter, Quarter....Ring!

    Stopped by a small inland lake yesterday for a quick (less then an hour) hunt. Its kind of a cruddy little lake in the middle of nowhere. The boat launch doubles as the swimming area. Plenty of trash signals right near shore. Working around in just over waist deep water I get a nice high...

    AT-Pro gave up the ghost in the water today...

    My old faithful AT-Pro died on me today in the water. Tried new batteries but no dice. I didn't miss a beat though...grabbed my backup AT-Pro and hit the water again. I had to send old faithful in early last year for repair and Garrett took good care of me so I know they will do the same...
