    Gold Kruzer

    The threshold based all metal Gen mode is good. It has pitch adjustment for the VCO tone, manual and automatic ground balance, threshold volume control, self adjusting threshold settings for tricky ground and full, accurate VDIs. I like it especially for gold prospecting. Like many really...

    Pairing 540 Vanquish Help..!

    Hold Bluetooth button for 2.5 seconds (straight from the manual........how do you know it is 2.5 seconds????) to initiate pairing. Turn on headphones and hold the power button down (you'll see a steady blue light) until you see the same light rapidly flashing blue/red repeatedly which means your...

    F44 or Gamma 6000

    Since the original poster already has an F5 and an F22, the F44 might be a bit redundant. I too am a big fan of the Time Ranger Pro/F19/G2+ with a smaller coil. Again, the 11X7" DD coil does not do any Fisher detector much of a favor.

    F44 or Gamma 6000

    I second Monte's opinion. The F44 (which is really good update of the outstanding Bounty Hunter Land Ranger Pro) is great for parks, playgrounds, tot lots and it is weatherproof. I am okay with the teardrop coil. I don't care for the 11X7" coil. It will do fine with your F22 and F5 coils. It is...

    which has been your favorite garrett?

    I've been happy to own the AT Pro, AT Max and AT Gold. Still own and use the AT Gold. I love the tones and the way it locks on to good targets that aren't too deep. Excellent gold prospecting detector with the 8X5" coil. Just bought a Nel Super Fly for it to use in parks and open fields. Thanks...

    What is the purpose/benefit of the WM 08 Wireless Audio Module

    This is from Minelab's web page for the WM08 module: "Allows you to listen to audio wirelessly for greater freedom of movement. Up to four WM08 Modules can be connected to an EQUINOX detector for group training." The WM08 page in the user manual is very detailed for those that like a good...

    What is the purpose/benefit of the WM 08 Wireless Audio Module

    The WM08 module has Minelab's Wi Stream proprietary wireless technology and will only pair with an Equinox 600 or 800. The WM08 can offer several alternatives to using the Minelab ML80 Bluetooth headphones. Lets say your ML80s battery runs out so you don't have a Bluetooth connection anymore...

    Tips needed for this weeks club hunt

    For many people I help at the club I am a member of and for me too it all depends on the trash levels. I would start with Jewelry mode first and see how it goes. If you are overwhelmed with too many trashy signals in the nickel/foil ranges you can always switch to Coin mode. Gold rings can be...

    Tips needed for this weeks club hunt

    After being a teacher for over 30 years, I can tell you that some teachers (and students!!!!) can lose all of their belongings from the school door to their car. Checking sidewalk edges out to about three feet from the concrete edge, especially the downhill side is a great place to find trash...

    Stirring the pot.. 600 or 800..!!

    Get the Avantree Audition Pro Headphones and a pair of the Aukey B80 earbuds. You can get both for less than the Minelab ML80s if you shop carefully. If you did the most recent update your 600 you should have 4 single frequencies and multi. Multi on the 600 and 800 is exactly the same which...

    Truthfully, the difference in most detectors

    That’s for sure. Thanks.

    IMPORTANT NEWS!

    What is an "Equinox follower"? I hope that Nokta Makro's simultaneous multi frequency detector will strongly compete with the Minelab Equinox and Vanquish. I also hope Garret will really improve their simultaneous multi frequency technology that unfortunately doesn't seem to be much of an...

    Truthfully, the difference in most detectors

    I like David a lot (the guy who made the video above). However, I disagree with his commentary. By the numbers that were showing up on the Equinox, 8, 9, 10, and some 13s and 14s, the Equinox identified that target as a deep non-ferrous low to mid conductor. If that had been a dime the tones and...

    Nox-600 or Nox-800..? What's Better..??

    The two Gold modes have several features that make them great for gold prospecting like VCO proportional single tone audio, the ability to internally adjust for high mineralization and hot rocks beyond just ground balancing because of the use of simultaneous multi frequencies and then they has...

    New 600 owner. First Minelab.

    Others may disagree with these statements which is fine. --- I would leave your 600 in multi frequency for general detecting. You will not get any advantage by changing to a single frequency except for investigating a target or for hunting in high EMI. Minelab optimized the 600 for multi...

    IMPORTANT NEWS!

    Glad to hear that your company is concerned about the physical health of the citizens of this world in more ways than metal detecting. If your thermometer works better and lasts longer than some of the ones my school system supplied to me and the other coaches in our athletic department that...

    Nokta Simplex review...

    Thanks John for making this video. I could not agree more on the Simplex. Great features, great performance and a really nice overall detector that should cost hundreds of dollars more. Unlike you, I tested mine in highly mineralized soil and it performed extremely well for a single frequency...

    Deus Lite firmware version

    When I turn my WS4 on right after startup I see 5 and then 21 for version 5.21. I don’t know if this works for earlier versions.

    Ground Balancing, playing nice in the sandbox , beeping rocks and 101 other questions ... (not really)

    jim tn and Monte are two people whose posts I always read and learn from. Ronstar as usual for him, had a great idea. So Kelley, these are some of this years finds and are photos of two bags of pull tabs (I keep them like trophies since each one could have been gold, a nickel or a bullet and...

    I guess I just have a soft spot for Tesoro and always will

    I still have my Cibola and enjoy using it a lot for lighter weight, go have some fun detecting. I started out with Tesoro detectors......... Would I sell my Equinox instead of my Cibola if I was desperate for money...NO. Love using both and a few others too.
