    Park Creek Hunt

    Dan, interesting strategy, and it paid off nicely for you! Even though you had to navigate a steep slope AND those nasty cockleburs, there was a reward waiting. NICE JOB! Steve

    Advice on used Equinox

    IF you were not hunting in the water, and easy on your equipment, I would DEFINITELY have said the one with the carbon-fiber shaft upgrade. BUT -- if you plan to go in the water, that changes the equation; in that case, I'd go with the one with warranty. Coil ear breakage can be made "rare,"...

    The UPS truck stopped by today,,,

    GA1dad -- I asked this in the other thread, but what did you decide as far as headphones, and how have they worked out for you? Steve

    First silver of the year 1881 half dime!

    Nice save on that half dime, Mark! Great digs as usual! Steve

    So lemme just verify,,,,

    Yes, that "low bass" sound is what the ML80 headphones have, from Minelab, and what SOME of these "BT80" headphones also have. The BT80 version I have, do NOT have that deep bass sound profile; the high tones are clearer/crisper as a result. The Miccus phones, like mine, also are not the...

    So lemme just verify,,,,

    GA1dad -- yes -- LOW LATENCY (LL) is the most important characteristic you need. Bluetooth with aptX LOW LATENCY. It MUST be LOW LATENCY. That is what assures the "delay-free" transmission from the unit to the headphones. Regular bluetooth or aptX are NOT sufficient...the "LL" is a specific...

    Equinox mods?

    Ted -- weight savings is about 35% vs. the stock shaft, but more importantly in my mind is that it can be counterweighted, to make it SWING "lighter"/more comfortably than the EQX with stock shaft... Thanks! Steve

    Equinox mods?

    Ted -- I would be glad to work with you on a new shaft this winter, if it's something you decide you may wish to do. And I can include, or not include, a drain hole in the lower rod -- that's your choice (and it's not hard to add one "after the fact," either, as greenmeanie mentioned -- use a...

    Public park gives up 8 silvers.

    Dan, That is amazing -- 8 silvers from a public park is darned rare, anymore. Incredible, and GREAT job hitting your 100 mark! Steve

    WANTED -- inexpensive AT Pro, condition unimportant (even not working is acceptable)...

    Hi all; I'm looking for an inexpensive Garrett AT Pro; it doesn't even have to be working, and all I really need is the control box (shaft and coils not required -- I need the control box to use as a "template" for a new shaft project I'm working on). I will consider all offers and will...

    Deep nickel VDI numbers

    I have to agree with jkline...the EQX is not the best choice of machines, if you are trying to cherry-pick deep nickels. Way too many other targets ID exactly in the nickel range on the EQX; they are MUCH easier to cherry-pick at depth with FBS. On an Explorer, with stock Pro coil, I could...

    Cautiously Considering A Nox

    jkline -- lowering your iron bias MAY give you MORE "high-tone squeaks" to investigate. I am sure you already know this, but what iron bias does is takes a "mixed" high-tone/low-tone target (either a coin co-located with a piece of iron, OR a nail that wants to report both iron tones and high...
