    WOOHOO! Big brown arrived..

    I got my Infinium today!! I can't wait to try it out on the jewelry and then hopefully the goldfields sometime this year!! I was a little nervous about not having a VLF for coinshooting but then a buddy of mine just told me he'd sell me his ACE for a song! He put about 15 minutes on it so it's...

    What a small world...

    I was out at lunch on various errands today, one of them to get a permit to detect in a certain area. While there the clerk just happened to mention that she was very close friends with 'the wife of a man who CREATED the whole metal detecting thing right in his garage'... I said 'you must mean...

    Xterra 705 with extra coils for trade

    I have a Minelab Xterra 705, not quite 1 year old, with 3 extra 18.75 high freq coils-6" DD, 5x10 DD and 10.5 DD, with a rain cover, and stock coil-everything in great shape. I'd be willing to trade for the following: Tesoro Tigershark AND Diablo uMax or Lobo ST (I could put a little cash in if...

    Xterra 10.5 DD High Frequency coil for sale

    I'm selling my 10.5 DD! Comes with cover, all in good shape. This coil turns the Xterra into a depth monster! I'm needing the funds to help me with a water detector or I'd just hold onto it.. I'd like $100 plus shipping and paypal is preferred.

    Almost a year with my Xterra!

    I'm rapidly approaching the one year mark with my 705!! I started detecting a few years ago with a Silver uMax (OK Monty! MICROMax) and loved it. But of course I wanted more! That silver didn't have a ground balance adjustment and I knew I needed that if I ever wanted to go prospecting. That led...

    Cobra Beach Magnet FS

    I got this detector used a couple months ago and have only used it on dry land. The seals appear to be good to me, and I had in mind to use it in the water, but have changed directions. I'm not exactly sure what to ask so let's start at $250.00 or best offer. I don't have pics yet but will get...

    Has anybody air tested a cache?

    I did this with my Xterra so I could know what to expect with various coils. I filled a jar full of silver coins and promptly found out the steel lid was probably the biggest factor in detection depth! Anyway, has anybody done any testing with any Tesoro models? What were the results depth-wise...

    Anybody have a Diablo uMax collecting dust?

    For some reason I can't get this detector out of my head. I've looked off an on for one over the last couple years but there aren't many to be had! Also, would anybody know what a generally fair price for one is?

    So what's up with the TigerShark?

    Are the connectors still an issue? These units seem to be out of stock everywhere I've looked! After discovering that the Tiger is essentially a waterproof Bandido, I've been scheming about how to get my hands on one..

    Do you only post CERTAIN finds?

    Like only your finds from private hunting spots? Just wondering if anybody has posted something really good found in a local park, etc. only to find that same place worked over like nobody's business next time they go?

    1st silver of '10...

    A sterling silver spoon! LOL.. not exactly what I had in mind. A local group from another forum got together in south Dallas to hunt a neighborhood that is now gone. The nieghborhood shows on a mid 50's map but was razed some time ago. The unfortunate thing about this hunt was that we noticed...

    Never fails-just when I DON'T have the detector...

    I went to meet a friend for some hunting yesterday-pig hunting that is. He still had some work to do so I decided to check out some public land for pigs since I'm supposed to be finding a place for some friends to hunt. I scouted and didn't see much in the way of signs but still had time to...

    What adventures are you planning for '10?

    Well I'm sitting here in the house because it's raining, ruining another free day that I could've used for detecting! Anyway, as I look ahead I've got a beach trip planned, one or more prospecting trips, a couple cache sites to hit, and I'm also working on getting more access to places that...

    Never assume it can't happen in a tot lot!!

    I decided to hunt a bit tonight before we get more dang rain tomorrow. I hit a really huge tot lot in the area and discovered it had been cleaned out already by my competition! Dang, it's usually good for a few dollars and some nitro jewelry.. I hit another nearby tot lot and then decided to...

    Guide to buying used Excal?

    I bet this has been discussed but can't find much on what to look for when buying a used Excal. I don't have my eye on one yet (no money), but would like to buy one sometime this year. Mainly I'm just looking for tips of common problem areas, etc. that I should be looking for. I've already...

    Finally hit the old house in E. Texas!

    I finally made it out to east Texas to hunt the old house I got permission for last fall! I didn't find a SINGLE coin amongst the trash! I found so many jar lids I couldn't belive it, bits of iron, nails, all kinds of stuff except coins. The ground is so trashy it's incredible! I bet it will...
