    Sad or Glad

    Don't know how I feel. I bought a 6" DD and wound up with 2 Sun ray X-8 coils. My thinking was the X-8 was just a little deeper than my Coiltec 10X5 and left a little less foot print. I have to admit the Coiltek 10X5 is my favorite coil for the Etrac. I went to an old Park where I pulled some...

    My Experience with Wireless Headphones

    I started off buying this Transmitter https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NP9MYFM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Bright tech with apt-X. This transmitter was recommended by other Detectors who tried it and liked it. I also bought a apt-X receiver. While waiting for the Transmitter...

    Test of a Idea or maybe opinion

    In our search for depth, I am coming to believe that every coin we miss because it is too deep, I think we may be missing 3 to 4 because we do not have enough separation. I traded my big coil and all I have left is the stock coil. I bought two medium sized coils (8") and one 6" DD. going to hit...

    Little Advice for New Hunters

    I just got permission for this House As you can see this house looks very old. When I got permission to hunt here I was told that two other Hunters had hunted this House. I know both these Guys and have hunted with one whom I consider a really good Hunter. This guy really has a good ear for...

    Feal Sorry for you Guys Up North

    I know for you Folks up North this is your off Season but believe it or not down here in Texas this is our best time of the year. The weather rarely gets too cold and this time of year the grass dies off opening up many places we can not hunt in the Summer.

    I Deserve a Prize

    I found the ugliest Silver Quarter ever. This is a 1944 Quarter I found Friday afternoon. When found I had no idea what it was. After 5 hours of Electrolysis with a Souped Up Power supply 21 V I can now say for sure it is a Quarter and still ugly. Tomorrow I will pour the juice to it again. I...

    Sun Ray X-8

    May have found one of these Coils. I have just about every size Coil for the Etrac but a Medium size. I do have the stock Coil but I want another Medium size. Anybody have opinions on these? Told by one Dealer these were Junk but could not find any bad experiences on the Net. My experiences...

    Opinion on Indian

    I hunted hard today in a Public Park. Down here it is rare to find Coins this old. This Indian was in Electrolysis for an Hour. It was unreadable before and I did not even know it was an Indian. Should I shock it some more or just leave it alone?

    Mars Pinpointer

    OK here is the scoop. The Mars Pinpointer is the same Depth as the Garrett Carrot or very close. It seems to be very Rugged and Simple. One hit on the Button and it comes on or goes off. There is no Delay like you have with the Carrot. There are no stages such as Low, Medium, and High. You can...

    Tear Jerker

    I recently got permission to hunt a couple old houses. The Owner's only request was that I let her know what I found. This house had been in her family for over a 100 years. The Owner was right at 80 herself. I had almost completed hunting the House when I decided to call her and report my...

    WOT Coiltek Coil for Etrac WTT

    Bought this Coil a couple weeks ago and it is too big for my style of Hunting. I want to trade it for something. I have two Etracs. What you got? What I would consider, smaller Coil. I like the Coilteks. A better Pin Pointer I have two Carrotts or whatever

    Etrac Settings Video

    Folks I am not an expert in any sort of way but I did have some new Software I was testing, so I made a Video. In the video I explained the Etrac and the way I run it. I am not a great spokesman but hopefully this will help some folks new to Metal detecting or some who just don't understand the...

    Heard a Squeak

    Well we got the Cold Front but no rain. It is so dry here it is almost impossible to hunt. I was bored so I decided to go to one of my Permissions and Cherry Pick with my WOT Coiltek. I got several Wheat Pennies but had to dig them with a Miner's Pick. I was up close to the House in the 6" grass...

    Fast on or off

    I am really torn with how I use this setting. I like how I get less false signals with it off but I hate how the screen really don't update. With it On i get more False signals but it is much easier to pick out good targets in Trash. I also worry that I miss good targets with it off.

    Cleo Clad Hunter

    I am reading about all these good finds and I have two unhunted 100 year old Houses to hunt. Spent the last couple evenings hunting one of these houses. I have bunches of Zincs, clad dimes, a few Nickles, and a few quarters, but only one 48 Wheat penny so far. What bothers me is I have only...

    Reluctant Hunt

    I wanted to hunt but did not have much time and no really good place to go. I went to a house where I have hunted numerous times and started hunting. I was not getting any good signals and looked across the street, Across the street there was an old House where I had already got permission to...

    Nail Test Revelation

    Thanks to the guy that posted the Nail test. This test puts a dime just inside two nails and using an Etrac he picks them up every pass. This is great because the conductive number is very consistent. I knew I was picking up good targets out of Nails but I had to be sure. So i did the Nail test...

    My Detecting Rig or Bag

    I made this by adding a set of Suspenders to a belt. This works great and the Key is the Keeper in back that keeps my pants from sliding down every time I bend over.
