    Vx3 FS or Trade for a CZ3D

    I have a nice Vx3 with the D2 coil, standard battery pack, Whites blue soft case, and a Sunray DX-1 pinpointer. Everything works great, I think it does have a small scratch in the corner display, but we all know they peel off and replace for something like $6. The sticker on the battery door...

    Any VX3 Fans Here?

    That last statement was in jest. I don't think they are complicated at all. In fact, I think the Spectra series helps those who want to learn more about the technical side of the hobby by allowing more user adjustments. I think that is a key feature of this machine, to be able to better tailor...

    DX-1 Sunray probe

    A big +1 on that. As I become more confident with this detector, I venture into more and more trashy areas. I've hunted many places where a ferrous target will be over the primary target. The Sunray is a huge plus in this area as it also discriminates as to what you have set on your detector. It...

    Any VX3 Fans Here?

    The VX3 has been a great detector for me. It allowed me to get into the Spectra series on a budget. I purchased mine used with the D2 coil, but still have the alkaline batt. pack. Like others have said, the dd coil and rechargable battery pack upgrade alone are worth it, but that is for those...

    DX-1 Sunray probe

    Oh yeah, forgot about that issue some people have. Now I see why you posted on the V forum GS. I havent noticed any performance issues with GB and almost always run in Auto Track mode. I have the Vx3, but I don't think that matters in this case. I'm sure you will enjoy the Sunray.

    DX-1 Sunray probe

    I have the dx-1 and really like it. Short list of Pluses/Minuses Plus Utilizes detector battery Can run in disc. mode with detector in case there is iron in the same hole. Hard to lose since it's attached. Excellent depth and a readout on your detector. Minus Weight added onto the detector...

    Lead id"s as silver:help:

    Spot on Rob... One of the great features of the V series detectors. The freq. trick alone has saved me from digging a ton of junk!

    VX3 batteries

    Personally, I'm saving up for the 2900 battery pack. Being that the VX3 is my go to detector, I burn through alkalines faster than I care to think about. Not to mention my 11 year old boys constantly raiding my detector for X-box controller batteries... :rolleyes: I can see Monte's point in his...

    Maybe upgrading to a Vx3

    I too used a MXT (s) for a couple of years on and off and definitely think the VX3 is a fine upgrade for those who enjoy a more programable detector. The MXT is a great machine in its own right, but like others have said, it's all in how comfortable you are with your detector. Good luck with...

    Small Coil , Which one is the best?

    Speaking strictly about White's coils, I have used both the 5.3 and the 4x6 coils for side walk strips and heavy trash and prefer the 5.3.. It seems to go a little deeper and separates very well. Of course my opinion might change if the soil was heavily mineralized or if I were nugget...

    Could be once in a lifetime hunt!:detecting::detecting:

    I'm can't remember the key dates off hand, but if you run across a 1909 VDB S, I'm looking for one to finish my Wheatie collection..... I'll give you a buck for it.... :lmfao: Kidding of course. I now some of the earlier wheat dates are worth a little more than the later ones, unless you find a...
