    Cautiously Considering A Nox

    jkline -- OK, got it. That makes sense, that you feel that the Equinox gets you about 90% of what you would dig, if using the CTX. Interesting, your results. It may be a "dirt" thing, where your soil is more suited to FBS. In my dirt, the results are a bit different, but that shouldn't be...

    Cautiously Considering A Nox

    jkline, Are you saying that you feel your Equinox is missing 10% of the silver coins that your FBS machines would see, or that it is missing 90%? I THINK you are saying you feel FBS would "see" 10% more of the silver coins than the Equinox does, but just wanted to clarify. One thing I will...

    Cautiously Considering A Nox

    Thanks Mark! As you noted, disassembly of the handle assembly from the shaft, will quickly verify everything I said, above. The waterproofing begins well up inside the handle, up at the battery door, NOT in the hollow, lower portion of the handle assembly. Steve

    Cautiously Considering A Nox

    NOT to hijack this thread, so please forgive me, Rob183, but -- there is something I feel compelled to address here. silvercoinboy, I am really disappointed that a Minelab rep actually said this to you, as it is entirely not factual. Period. If this is actually what was said by this rep, then...

    Nox nickel hunts

    sube -- thanks for the post. I'm glad to hear your "nickel to trash" ratio. Everyone always talks about how "good on nickels" the Equinox is, but for me personally, I have always felt I must be missing something -- as I dig alot of trash at 12/13, when targeting nickels. So, hearing you...

    Steve is away, and I'm sure will do whatever repairs are needed on his site, when he returns... Steve

    The Nox lost today...

    fwcrawford -- that 1859 is a "fatty" Indian Head, different composition of metals from the newer ones, and that's why it read 16, vs. the normal 19-20. Fatties read lower than regular IHPs... Steve

    Lovin' it

    Jeff -- just beautiful! I love to dig Seated coins, and they sure don't come around often enough for my liking...and NEVER a "love token." Yours is beautiful; it makes it a terrific, one-of-a-kind "Seated" coin. CONGRATS!!! Steve

    2 PC CARBON FIBRE SHAFT

    Trailduster -- THANK YOU for the very kind words! And, I find that fascinating, what you said about "rotating the top shaft a few degrees inward," and how it relieved your carpal tunnel and elbow aching." I ALSO rotate my upper shaft (and thus control box) slightly "inward" or "toward my...
