    Zmd

Said no, but then he said your name from the forum and I said I recognize that name! Any how, small world. I'm in Orleans...

    Excal 2 Question

    I've hit a local beach on Lake Erie, and when I hunt there, the Excal 2 will null out, in other words they'll be no thresh hold for most of the time as I'm searching. If I stop the thresh hold comes back. I do pick up targets, but I don't remember the thresh hold doing that at this site before...

    New Coil

    Hey everyone. Just wanted to get suggestions on a coil. I only have the stock right now. If people had to choose only one other than the stock, what would you go with? Realize it's a bit of personal choice and what I want to find, sniper vs larger coil for depth. Will eventually get more than...

    Jewelry Machine

    Just wondering thoughts on the best jewelry machine for land. I have the Excal 2 and the E-trac. Found great deep silver on land with the E-trac, but it's not a gold machine. I don't want to spend more than 700 bucks, and I would buy used. Was thinking about the DFX, as I did really well with...

    Unbelievable Service

    Sent in my E-Tr ac for service. Took exactly 2 weeks door to door for service. They replaced: the coil, screen, grip, metal brace behind the box that was bent. Holy cow. What a company. Thing runs like a charm!! Technician Darin Brown said it had a intermittent fault. Best customer service and...

    2500 Bucks VS Summer School Flattened

    What seemed like a great idea has been flattened for now as I am going through a divorce and looking for fall work. The idea was I was going to metal detect to earn 2500 bucks instead of teaching summer school to emotionally disturbed kids. I'm actually doing summer school as well. (At a...

    Worried about My Machine

    I was out with my daughter hitting up a spot loaded with new change. Every couple of minutes, the machine would just lose it's tracking. There would be just low tone beeps, even if I wasn't moving the machine. I lifted the coil up in the air, still would be doing it. I turned the machine off and...

    metal detecting vs summer school and 2500 bucks

    TTF in regular Trashy Parks

    DoesTTF work well relic mode 2 tone in trashy parks where there isn't A lot of iron and mulling? I tried for another hour at a local park, lots of new coins, etc. and The machine didn't seem to be hitting them, seemed too quiet. If there isn't a lot of iron, how is TTF advantageous?

    Some Questions

    Hey everyone. Hit Cape Cod, where I lived for 30 years, but hadn't gotten into metal detecting then. Too bad.
