    New Nokta Detectors for Beach Hunters?

    Thanks! I'm not a Nokta guy so don't know much about them. Wonder why the Kruzer & Multi Kruzer didn't sell? Maybe either price of that they're SF and guys were looking for SMF's?

    New Nokta Detectors for Beach Hunters?

    You Nokta guys might already know about this, I don't swing a Nokta, so this is new to me. I decided to check Nokta’s website, to see if they made other PI's, wanted to see if they had lower priced PI's that would have established a PI track record before coming out with the mega buck Magnetar...

    Waterproof Coil Design for lowest resistance underwater

    BTW, I thanked the AI for coming up with the low-resistance waterproof coil for me, and it replied with a lot of additional information regarding how it came up with the design, what references it used, all kinds of stuff. And it even offered to create a Version 2 that manufacturers might find...

    Waterproof Coil Design for lowest resistance underwater

    Everyone here knows that swinging a coil in the air is a LOT easier than trying to swing the coil through water. But if you look at coils that come with waterproof detectors, it seems that most Manufacturer’s Engineers & Designers don’t factor water’s increased resistance into their coil design...

    If you find a ring made from this Metal, ya might want to hold onto it

    Nice! Personally, I'd hold onto them for the long term. Although the price of Tungsten is currently lower than Silver, the price has risen 10x since last year, so I definitely wouldn't consider it to be junk. Especially since it's classified by our Gov't as a strategic metal.

    If you find a ring made from this Metal, ya might want to hold onto it

    If any of you find rings that aren’t gold or silver, don’t immediately write them off as junk. Check to see if the ring is made from Tungsten, and if so, ya just might want to hold onto it. The Tungsten market is very quiet and flies below most people’s radar. Like Silver, Tungsten is one of the...

    Celebrity Cruise Line

    From what I've heard, it's not necessarily the cruise line itself that determines if you can bring a detector. It's the country/destination where you'll be sailing to that calls the shots. For instance, I've heard that Jamaica doesn't allow metal detecting on their beaches. So if you were taking...

    My first, crack of dawn hunt for the summer....

    It's always good when I find money in my suit jacket or around the house, but that's just my money that I previously misplaced. But finding money on the ground, that's NEW money, lol. 💸

    My first, crack of dawn hunt for the summer....

    VERY Cool Donna!! I had same thing happen a few weeks ago when the wife and I went to Lowe's. We're outside in the garden area and she's looking at potted flowers. I always tend to look at the ground, because I've found things that way over the years. Out of the corner of my eye, I spot a...

    Ship wrecks.

    Don't feel bad Nauti. Ring Pulls find me, even when I'm not detecting, and even if I'm just digging some small holes in the flower bed so the wife can plant some new flowers, lol.

    Here I go again... same place, different place, hope the results will be better.....

    Good Luck Mark!!

    I asked AI to create some beach metal detecting jokes

    I don't even need a metal detector to find pull tabs, lol. I was using a 3-prong metal rake to dig some holes in the flower bed, so wife could plant flowers. Imagine my surprise when I pulled up the rake and noticed that there was a pull-tab on one of the prongs. Still trying to figure how a...

    I asked AI to create some beach metal detecting jokes

    I’ve been playing around with AI for the last few months, using it to create images, song lyrics, asking it questions, and most recently, used it to calculate how many 1.5cu ft & 2cu ft bags of straw, mulch & soil I would need to fill up our new raised garden bed. It did the math, showed me the...

    Reverse Discrimination Question

    Thanks TVR, thanks for the reminder, I forgot about that, GREAT tip! Yeah, I encountered the disappearing signal phenomenon 15 years ago during my first-year beach detecting. I actually did a post about that last year...

    Reverse Discrimination Question

    I’ve been running a Sovereign Elite on the beach for the last 15 years and have recently acquired a Dual Field PI that I use strictly for wet and shallow salt water. My Sov has auto iron reject in discrim mode as well as multiple pitch tones based on target conductivity, also has all-metal mode...

    Yeah Buddy, Scratching my Beach Hunting Itch next week

    I'm back from my trip to OC and did a write up of my hunts along with some pictures. But the system wouldn't let me post as it exceeded the "character limit". Don't seem to have that restriction at all the other forums, so if you'd be interested in reading my write up, send me a message and I'll...

    gold has been scarce ...

    Nice finds TVR, very unique ring, and heavy. The shark's tooth was a nice bonus find, don't see those around too often.

    Yeah Buddy, Scratching my Beach Hunting Itch next week

    I’ve always known I married the right woman on my 2nd try, and a couple hours ago, she proved me right. I’m at my PC when she comes up and stands beside me. We’ve been married over 12 years so when she comes up and just stands next to me when I’m busy doing something, I know something’s up. I...

    CS4pi

    Yeah buddy, sounds like they got all the kinks worked out. They probably took extra time to give your PI some personal attention, get everything set up and tuned just right. Man, I can't turn my Dual Field on anywhere in the house. That PI picks up metal everywhere. It went off on my metal file...

    CS4pi

    Sweet! I can't wait to hear your reports on how the detector performs. There's not many new PI's out there, and the ones that are available, are either designed for the nugget busters or tend to cost well over $1,000, closer to $2,000. It would be great to have a good performing PI that's...
