    Super nitro-ammo can buried under giant tree...

    I was very excited to get permission to hunt a new place today! It's an old farmhouse, probably built in the 40's or 50's, and I just know hordes of silver coins await! Well since I was on limited time, I decided to hit the area around a massive old tree, the clothesline and the walk. I was...

    First Coin With T2SE-a silver dime!

    I went detecting at a beach today with another forum member. Being my second outing with the T2, I had no real expectations other than to get used to the machine. We hunted quite some time before we found an area that had any metal at all to show signs of activity. I dug some fishing weights...

    Did some air testing on the T2-very nice!

    Some quick results of various settings and 'depth' results. Targets were: large mans gold ring 14k, '98 quarter, '96 nickle, '99 dime. S-70. D-10 T-2+ Nickle 9+ Dime 8 Quarter 10+ Ring. 13 Then I switched to BP because I want this machine to knock my socks off.. S-50 D-10...

    Finally got out with the T2..

    No great finds but mainly a hunt to get acquainted with the T2SE. I went to place that is littered with iron and my AT Pro had always sounded like a machine gun. I experimented with all the settings, ran the sensitivity high and then low in areas. No deep targets but several very small items...

    My first First Texas product!

    I just bought a used T2SE! Sadly I've been so busy I've barely had time to look at it... But SOON! I'm really hoping to get access to a place I used to hunt. Long story but its been pounded by all kinds of detectors over the years. I just want to see if the T2 can pull just one (or a few) more...

    Tesoro Diablo uMax FS-just back from Tesoro

    Guys I've decided to sell my recently aquired Diablo uMax. It was checked out by Tesoro and had the coil and soil switch replaced, and has not seen sunshine since! Yes those gold fields are still callin me but its just not in the cards for now and I've decided to go in a bit different direction...

    Somebody tell me about 'cache mode' on the F75

    I don't expect it to outdo my TM-808 but how bout that cache mode? Is that just the BP setting? Go easy, I know next to nothing about the F75..

    Headphone opinions/advice

    Guys I just got a Diablo uMax and am considering several headphones. Nugget buster NDT, Rattlers and Gray Ghost original or ultimates are all under consideration. I like the idea of the rattlers for....rattlers, but not sure about having only one earmuff? Thoughts? Opinions? My hearing isn't...

    Merry Christmas AT bros and sisters!

    ...and a happy and blessed new year! I hope to get out more often this year! I made it out like 5 times in '13! I'm set for a decent '14 though-just snagged a two box and a gold machine! ATX is on the hit list next!! You can figure out my goals. What are yours? Randy

    I just couldn't resist...

    I've dreamed of the goldfields for years now and been reading about it all this time. One detector seemed to come up here and there as 'the one they shouldn't have quit making'. Well because of that, and my weakness for things hard to get, I finally got my hands on a Diablo uMax! This will be...

    Got a great accessory for my AT Pro!

    I'm pretty excited about this new toy! One of the biggest reasons I bought my AT Pro was because it was waterproof and through word of mouth and research, I keep finding sites on rivers and creeks that need detecting. My problem has been one of ACCESS! Here in Texas almost all land is private...

    1898 Dime from amongst the heavy trash!

    Yesterday I hunted an area that has had activity since the late 1800's. Some friends had researched and received permission to hunt the site, which had a hotel and bath houses on it from the late 1800's through around 1920's. The structures are long gone and the grounds have been used as...

    I'm swimming in spooky old houses!

    Today I got access to three old houses! By this weekend that number will be going up! Talk about drinking from a firehose! I'm gonna need Scooby to help me sniff out the goodies... In the meantime, I know the AT is perfectly suited for the job! Awesome separation combined with sweeps with a...

    Glad to be swingin' an AT right now!

    I suddenly have a lot of competition I'm my area! Everybody must've run right out and bought detectors when gold went up because places are CLEEEN! Well, ALMOST. My good finds are pretty few right now since I've only been out a few times but I've noticed something-they're deep! I found a thin...

    Fun morning at Garrett-as always! :bouncy:

    Well I had some time so I took the AT in for an upgrade. I hadn't been experiencing the falsing as bad as some folks had mentioned, but it did happen sometimes, plus I always like checking out the museum and stuff. So while the AT was getting it's spa treatment, I got to tour the facility...

    Somebody say something about depth with the AT?

    SO. I was hunting a couple weeks ago at a site that I've been working on for months. Now this site should have almost NO metal of any kind except that which I'm seeking and maybe the occaisional stray bullet from hunters. I had been running the TF-900 and had a couple spots where I got signals...

    Freshwater hunt and observations with AT

    I finally got some alone time with my AT Pro!! I spent an afternoon at a local lake that has been frustrating me for a couple years now. The reason this lake is frustrating is that it has yielded 2 gold rings from the same beach, and I can't manage to find much else since then. THAT compounded...

    Relic finds from the weekend-need ID help!

    I went cache hunting at a site where a local feud went down in the 1870's. A lot of people got dead and nobody knows what happened to any of the gold that was hidden by the one of the big 'players' in that conflict. Well, there is a lot of history in that particular area, so I always like to...

    New Year resolution...one of 'em!

    I need to do more local research! I'd like to get more places to detect where I stand a chance of finding old coins...who wouldn't, right? This last year I was so busy running off to the woods in seach of caches that I let my local stuff slide. The caches are still out there but I'm sitting here...

    Tot lot cruise with AT Pro..

    Well, I've been so tied up lately that I was just ITCHIN' to get out and swing the detector a bit. Naturally my window of opportunity was at night and when the temps were in the 30's..lol! You take what you get I guess, so I headed out to a tot lot that I know gets hit somewhat frequently, but I...
