    Minelab Equinox 900 or Nokta Legend?

    Jimmy for me, hunting the same 2 old parks and in most instances the exact same areas, same settings the 800 performed better and found me more keepers than the 900 or the Legend. Well you might say duh thats because the 800 found them first. And before 2025 those were my thoughts, but with the...

    Minelab Equinox 900 or Nokta Legend?

    I agree, although not a beach hunter but having used both in the dirt I would say the Legend is a better choice than the 900. I'm a Minelab guy, loved my Etrac, 2 800s and now I use the Manticore and am quite happy with it. The 900, not so much. I sold it. Good luck.

    New Manticore owner. Questions.

    Jughed congrats on the new rig. Minelab quit putting hard copy manuals in with the machine beginning with the Equinox back in 2018. some dealers would print out a copy and include it with the sale. That eventually faded along with the worry of internal batteries. Battery life was a big concern...

    Legend 2 might be on the move soon

    And I gotta agree with you, and have said this before, metal detectors are not like a fridge or TV s where there will be one or two in every house. Its a finite market, the cost of R&D development then production. At what point is enough too much ? You're right, its almost every year someone...

    AT Pro saves day for neighbor

    Good on you Dancer, you made that guys day and spread some good p.r. for the hobby. Over here in the South Hills we got closer to 12. And that was with my official snow measuring technique. How much lays flat on the tonneau cover of my truck. Ha ha. A shame about that girl, hope her doing...

    Legend 2 might be on the move soon

    Still being impressed with Manticore magic. And I doubt the Legend 2 can top it. As far as weight, I have an R& B battery and I use the 9 in. coil, not sure of the weight but I can swing it for 5 or 6 hours without any arm or shoulder fatigue. I have a little over 100 hours on the original...

    Silver is Going Crazy!!

    And again I agree. My comment was sparked by yours pertaining to that guy who said he's being hacked by A I rs. And others who are out there sowing the seeds of doom and gloom to get a view.

    Silver is Going Crazy!!

    I agree with you Mark. A local guy I deal with feels the same. $300 oz. or higher. I was just commenting on B.S. that some Youtubers that will say anything to get a click. And A I is making it even easier for them. I wonder if they lose credit for the click if their video is cut short because...

    Silver is Going Crazy!!

    Don't know if it can be done, Youtube needs to crackdown and eliminate AI generated content. If viewers can't trust what they watch, pretty soon they will get fed up and stop watching. I already find myself checking the videos I watch. As far as silver, I've seen a couple snippets that say...

    Silver is Going Crazy!!

    Silver is Going Crazy!!

    Silver is Going Crazy!!

    It'll hit a 100 before the end of the month. Speculation is 300 by end of June. But don't forget the gains tax you'll get if you bought bulk from the big dealers. The government will want their share before the bubble burst. If indeed it does burst. I don't think it will.

    Manticore Tones

    Well at least it does seem like he calmed down some. I did go back and check my audio. I forgot to adjust the profile after the reset. The last outing had the tones I am used to hearing. As far as the cross, I would say a VDI in the single digits up to maybe 15. A cross that thin won't give...

    Manticore Tones

    Yea its been a while since I watched one of his videos. Not that the guy isn't smart but his online antics and tantrums got to be too much. Well I watched it, have to agree with him on picking tones and sticking with them. So much so I replicated 5 tone w/ break and pitch that I used on the 800...

    EQ 800 or 900 or Manticore

    First, rechargeable batteries haven't been a problem. My 800 which I used for almost 5 years, ( March of 18 to Dec. of 22 averaging 80 - 100 hunts a year) still holds a good charge. The 900 I used for a little over a year without any battery issues. Didn't care for the machine and sold it. Now...

    Surprise find today!!

    Hope you can nab one more silver to round out the take for the year FWC. But if thats to be it, one hell of a find to close with. Congrats on the Walker, IMO the most beautiful coin ever minted. And yours is in excellent shape. Well done. I was lucky enough to find one this year, it was deep...

    Equinox 15" Coil

    Phillip, congrats on the new addition. I used it with when I had the 800. It hit deep but in my opinion pinpointing was a bit off. And I don't want to rain on your parade but I remember reading a few posts where there were compatibility issues with the 15 in. on the 900. Hope I'm wrong. Check it...
