    Another V3 "i" question... Anne...?? (hint hint)

    That is a good idea but it would probably cost you another $125 to upgrade.

    Back light setting affecting pinpoint tone quality

    Pick a "canned" program like Coin & Jewelry with VCO on. Normally, my pinpoint VCO tone has a nice even ramp up and ramp down in tone as the coil passes over the target. If I set my Back Light setting to 1 or 2 or 3 the VCO tone takes on a individual flute type notes instead of the smooth ramp...

    Vision or V3 Users Sitting on the Fence

    Wow, I wish I had your success. The upgrade didn't help with my unstable, noisy signals. I have to play with frequency settings, gain settings, etc to get it to settle down even a little. I'm on my 3rd 10" DD coil. They caused a lot of problems too. I'm also finding myself doing less...

    Rx gain ?

    Yea, I wish Jeff Foster would do a V3i book similar to his "Digging Deeper with the DFX".

    Comparing the V3 to the V3i - What should I be looking for?

    I upgraded my V3 to the V3i. I didn't feel it was worth it however I do agree with Larry, it may help with the resale value.

    V3 at the beach.... mixed feelings and back pain

    Yea, my V3i bothers my back too. Have you considered a support strap system or the hip mount kit from Whites?

    WELL, HAD to SEND MY V3i IN TODAY......

    What was wrong with it? I just sent my 10" & 12" coils in for replacement (my 3rd 10") and it took 28 days.

    Got my replacement coils back today

    Back on June 23 I sent my D2 and Super 12 coils back to Whites for replacement. Both of them were generating a lot of false signals and noise when the coil is held in the air (or on the ground) and softly giggled. They were making noise when they touched anything and also at the end of a...

    Got My D2 back!

    Sounds like the D2 is working well for you. I'm still waiting to get mine back, I sent it in on June 23. Not use to having Whites take so long on customer service.

    DFX to V3I

    I agree with the comment above that the VDI and depth info is not as accurate as it was on my DFX. I sold my DFX and got the V3 almost a year ago. I do miss my DFX.

    Test your coils guys ..............................

    I have the following V rated coils for my V3: 5.3 Eclipse, D2, 9.5, and Super 12. With RX at 15 and TX boost ON the only coil that doesn't overload is the 9.5" With TX boost OFF none of the coils overload. Are the 3 coils that overload with TX boost ON bad coils or not???

    Test your coils guys ..............................

    With all the coil problems and costly upgrades to my V3 I'm beginning to regret that I rushed out to buy a detector that wasn't field proven.

    Thanks for the info, sounds like it would be wise to wait for the upgrade until they have their act together.

    A post from Carl@whites

    Thanks for the info Carl, I am pretty upset about having to pay $100 & $25 to upgrade my V3 that is less than a year old. I teach a metal detecting class and have always pointed everyone towards Whites. I've decided to take time to cool down before I decide how I'm going to proceed. Thanks...

    V3i

    I've used Whites machines for years and have talked others into buying them, I rate them number 1. However, charging $100 plus shipping for an upgrade on a detector that is less than a year old and still on warranty just isn't right. I'll be very disappointed in Whites if this happens.

    Setting up a V3 to hunt a specific site

    Is anyone out there detailed enough to compile a step by step procedure to set up a V3 to hunt a specific site? For example; using the Live Control Sensitivity Zoomed to determine starting points for RX, Disc, All Metal settings. Ground Balance/Tracking...

    Need help here

    If you want to keep the "foam" handle that you hold while swinging clean try this: Double over a length of duct tape with the sticky sides together. Wrap it around the handle to cover the foam pad and then cover that duct tape with another piece of duct tape to hold it in place. I used the...
