    Calling Jeff Foster - I want to order a book!

    Hey Jeff:Jack from penna. The response on here should point out the need for folks who want to know what they have in the V3i. It sounds to me,(a novice with the V3i,)that this undertaking would be very well received.Count me in for a copy.Jack from Pa.

    Will there eventually be a V3i classroom?

    Hi Folks: have read the above threads and agree the forum on many of these sites provide valuable info on the V.The th'ers from all over the country indicate the potential for this machine.IMHO it would be a master stroke of marketing for a fine company like Whites to sponsor a workshop scenario...

    What kind of hunting do you do?

    Hey Larry: Nice question!My hunting is usually around old schools,fair grounds,and whenever I get a hot lead on some old gathering places.The hottest spot (one that hooked me in the hobby in the early 70's) was an old multi-purpose fair ground,race track,and old carny spot,They scrapped it off...

    My First Outing with the 10"x12" SEF Coil

    Hey Neil:just saw that neat video with that new coil.I went with the 8x6 for my high trash,and pre- hunted areas. Question is: have you had to make any dynamic changes in what appears to be your V3i m/d, to use another coil from a different manufacturer.Some threads discourage the practice of...

    Here's a V3i vid just for the coin shooter

    Thanks Bradley for the great video.We novices to the v3i appreciate the effort and the usable info in the high trash areas many of us are faced with,making it tough with that big 2d coil.That smaller coil is looking like a viable possibility for this novice. Also grateful for Magic's pointing...

    Factory reset

    Jack from pa. Thanks guys for the heads up on factory reset on my V3i.I checked my source and it was a thread from an official forum of "Whites Metal Detector Users".The thread does make a point of noting that it does not apply to the V3,which could lead to calibration problems. The title of...

    Factory reset

    Hey Larry: Jack from Penna.When you note factory reset is not endorsed by Whites what does that imply.I've done numerous rsets as I try to figure out this V3i.I've reset 3or 4 times and have read on this forum,as well as the op. man. that this is a method to learn the capabilities of the m/d.Any...

    V3I is a "Depth Demon"

    Thanks from Pa.an informative video.SAT has been something I see all the time,but no explanation leaves me in a tizzy.Your video sheds some lite on it for a newbie. That adj.where the tx boost is on yet lessens the threshold sounds odd or perhaps I need to reread.Thanks again for the info I'll...
