    Any Compass Detector Enthusiasts these days????

    Hey Beau61, just curious as to how many yrs you have been in the hobby to amass such a collection of detectors ? I started in 1994 myself, and I suppose if I had kept all the detectors I bought since then, my picture might be pretty similar to yours... tho my wife would have flipped out yrs ago...

    NOX VIDs for Gold Rings

    WOW, that seems like really bad luck Felix. !! Out of all those nickels I would have guessed about 5-6 of those would have been a gold ring.. I think back, my ratio was about 1 gold per 90-100 nickels. Probably way worst now. I used a whites eagle II blue box for a few seasons. Almost...

    WHAT WAS THE BEST F.SERIES FISHER EVER MADE???

    I've had two models ; First was the f-75 yrs ago when they first came out. The claim then was its very "chatty". It was and I got rid of it soon afterwards. Yrs later I picked up a f-44, mid level unit, decent depth. I put on a nel sharpshooter coil and its still on to this day. It Id's...

    Well, The Ground Is Frozen! Winter Has Arrived....Time To Take Inventory Of This Year's Finds

    Ya John, you seem to be really in tune with the vx-9 for sure. By all accounts you had a great season finding loads of clad coinage and jewelry to boot. !! WTG.. I was sooo tempted to pull the trigger on the 9 especially with the 25% off garrett was promoting, but since I really don't do much...

    Here's maybe a crazy question, especially to all the old timers like me who've scanned the ground while detecting......

    do you still make it a habit to keep your head facing to the ground even while in the grocery store parking lot, or school parking lot or home depot etc., etc. etc..... I can't tell you how many quarters, dimes and even a few dollar bills I've picked up floating around and lying on the ground...

    I gotta give a huge shout-out to VA beach Max and Felix who helped me.............

    WELL; maybe there are a couple variations of the same contraption. ?? I'm certainly not going to look a gift horse in the mouth. Carrying a 5 +pound scoop around a beach is not my idea of fun, and I'm sure this belt attachment will truly do the trick. I've been pass VA beach at least 25...

    I gotta give a huge shout-out to VA beach Max and Felix who helped me.............

    well the best description I can make is it's made out of aluminum, in the shape of a pare about 6 inches long. 2 slots on top where a belt would thread thru, and a j-hook welded to the aluminum piece... Max says to put some type of cushioning behind it to help save your hip.. Pretty cool. Mark...
