    Does your Xterra...

    Ok, been having some issues with my 705 and just wondering if anyone else encounters this. If I lightly bounce my coil up and down on the ground, it beeps each time the coil touched the ground. It didn't do this before that I can remember, just started.

    How do you find the deeper coins

    Using my 705, finding clad and such at depths of a few inches is no problem although my depth arrows will show the target deeper than what it actually is, but haven't been finding deeper, older coins. What's your technique and what settings do you use? Also, what does your vdi show and what...

    Coil and frequency for coin shooting

    Been reading in other forums about some machines are better for coin hunting due to their frequency. So with the 705, what frequency and which coil do you think is the better coinshooting setup. I seem to remember Digger touting the LF coil as best for coin hunting unless I'm off base on what he...

    705 and VDI questions

    Ok, so I air test coins to get a VDI number. Go to my test garden where I have known coins at known depth. VDI is jumpy and all over the place if coin isn't near surface and worse as depth increases. How do you determine what to dig. Do you just go by the tones and ignore VDI? Do you dig...

    A pleasant M6 problem

    So the last couple of days been out getting familiar with my M6. Today, decided to take my main detector, Minelab Xterra 705. Missed the ease and simplicity of the M6. New dilemma, which detector to take next time.

    My first non clad coin

    Only been detecting a few months but finally got my first wheatie using my new M6. Only problem is that it is pitted and disfigured so bad you can barely make out the head and only one wheat marking. But at least it was something other than clad.

    White's coinmaster

    Just bought a basic White's Coinmaster as a backup to my Minelab Xterra 705. Wanted an inexpensive turn on and go machine that still was a quality machine. After the first run through my test garden, must say it impressed for an intro. machine.

    Spray on bedliner on a Garrett Pro Pointer

    I see people use spray on bedliner to protect the coils, anybody use it on a pro-pointer? Will it affect depth on a pro-pointer where you're not getting alot to begin with.

    Coinmaster

    I have a Xterra 705 but want a backup detector that's just a turn on and go. Thinking of getting the basic coinmaster. Any pros and cons will be appreciated.

    9 inch mf concentric coil

    Rec'd the 9" coil I ordered to complement my 5x10 hf dd, surprising to me, on an air test I get an extra inch over the DD coil. This is on everything, penny, nickel, dime, quarter, gold ring, pull tab and nail. Some were even more.
