    A short hunt at an old house with the AT..

    My plans fell through yesterday so I decided to get out to an old house I've been hitting off and on for about a year. The place has been picked over by many detectorists, but sometimes still yeilds a surprise or two. The iron at this place is incredible but I think the AT is right at home here...

    Anybody seen this ID with the AT PRO?

    I've had this come up several times with my machine-always in association with big iron. The ID will reach 99 but then on another swing display 'AO'. I called Garrett and they tell me this isn't a problem, but is a reading that indicates the ID is not within the designated range set for target...

    AT Pro at an old homesite

    Today I finally had enough time to get out for a few hours of quality time with the AT! I went to an old homesite that has been picked over waay before I ever got there, but it still gives up a surprise or two. Previous finds were an 1899 Indian penny, an Interurban Railway token, and a bunch of...

    Tot lot report for the AT

    I went out to a tot lot last night for about an hour for some easier digging and varied targets with the intention of getting video. Well, I have more work to do on a night setup for the video but here are some notes. I ran in STD mode, coins, with sensitivity set at 4. Unfortunately this lot...

    Ok, video FAIL.. But I do have an AT report!

    Well, trying to get video AND hunt with no tripod while using a Flip camera...yeah, can you say FAIL? I do have one video my buddy took of one target I recovered which doesn't show a heck of a lot! I'll post it anyway because it's one more than is out there right now. Ok, first notes...

    LAST Air test vid of the AT Pro

    Ok, the last one! I wanted to maximize my distance results so I tried to standardize where the targets hit in the detection field. I also wanted to see if I could duplicate John's results with the Euro...didn't happen! NO more air tests.. I'm off to the great wide open tomorrow. Might even get...

    I put an AT Pro air test video on youtube!!

    OK, I'll warn you up front that the audio quality sucks, and probably the video will put you to sleep! Anyway, my first youtube video and I hope y'all find it helpful. I'm headed out Sunday to a much coveted metal detecting locale here in north Texas and I'll get more video. Both me and my...

    Dare I hold my breath...TOMORROW!!?!?!??

    My dealer tells me my AT Pro will be delivered TOMORROW!! Woohoo!! Now I just have to pick which site to take it to on Saturday! I was planning on going hunting for critters this weekend but it looks like that might change..

    She had the cutest little grin!

    My little 4 year old that is! I took her for a bike ride to a local playground with her little metal detector and high hopes! After we got there she played a bit and while she wasn't looking I tossed a few coins here and there in the mulch. When she asked to use her detector I steered her to the...

    How do you like the color? AT Pro..

    I REALLY like the black color of this detector! I've never been a fan of the yellow on the ACE (use a rain cover), nor particularly of the green on others, although I can live with both since the function is usually more important to me than form. Garrett says they opted for black as being more...

    Performance differences in Garrett 2 box units?

    I'm kicking around buying a Master Hunter with 2 box, just for the 2 box purpose. I know there were several models of the MH over the years that all had a two box option... So is any MH better than another when we're just talking 2 box? The nice lady at Garrett told me that the 2500 would...

    Now I know more than I wanted to...

    about the innards of an Excal!! This morning I thought my detector was acting a little funny. I got out of the water and started looking through the clear spots on the body and there was about two drops worth of water inside!! I thought I just might puke right there but remained calm.. I talked...

    Is it ok to....battery discharge question?

    I've used my Excal on a couple hunts and wanted to go ahead and discharge the battery all the way but wasn't sure how to do it effectively other than maybe just leave the detector on. I have the NiCd batteries and just wanted to be sure they went all the way down before charging back up again so...

    MAN I love this Excal!

    I haven't found any gold yet, but I've found about $10 in change and several silver peices, plus a couple nitro peices of jewelry! All that in just 3 hunts! I've been consistently amazed at the DEPTH I'm pulling some of these targets from! Oh, and I still haven't dug any iron trash except when I...

    Finally just DID it!! Excal...:bouncy:

    Recently I went through the mental process of taking a hard look at what detecting I do most, what detecting brings me the best return, and exactly where my focus should be with regards to how my detectors are specialized. I've gone through the stress of wading with my land detector, lived...

    Super nice Infinium for sale!

    I traded around and got this Infinium from one of the forum members about 3 months ago. I've used it only a bit for some freshwater wading and hitting a few sand vollyeball lots. Lemme tell ya, this thing will find it ALL, and I hunt in areas where others have been hunting all the time. This...

    You know you're in trouble when...

    ..you look up while detecting a new freshwater beach and see another detectorist..who tells you how POUNDED that beach gets. 'There musta been 7 guys with detectors here last time I came out!'. Well dang. No wonder we didn't find a stinkin' thing! LOL... I guess it's time to put some STRATEGERY...
