    1st hunt w/Omega

    Had a couple hours today before work so had to try out the new Omega. Sold my F70 this past year, and was unsure if I did the right thing or not. After about an hour today, think I will really like this Omega. I found it difficult to hunt the local parks with the F70 due to the high EMI...

    New to the Tek Omega

    After much debate I took the plunge and got a Tek Omega. I have viewed and read as much as I can find on this machine and think this will fill my addiction nicely. Prev machine was an F70 - liked that machine a lot and had good success with it but was really a handful in the urban (read: EMI...

    Learning the 11" DD on the F70

    Nice day here but cool, just had to get out and try the 11"DD wife got me for my F70. I must say, this coil completely transforms this machine. Very impressed with the depth and target separation improvement. Hunt today was in a local newer park, 85 sens/thresh -2/SL mode/15 disc. Rings are...

    New F70 user

    Hello all: I'll have a new/used F70 enroute to me (thanks, Richard @ Backwoods!) this week - very stoked! Been over all the YouTube videos, and everything else I can find on the forums pertaining to the F70. For all you current F70 users, keep the tips coming! Think this machine will be an...

    1st ring w/F2

    Got in a quick one-hour hunt at some baseball backstops before work...netted my 1st ring with my F2. Not a BIG ring by any means, but it's sterling anyway... Rang in at a nice 51 on the F2's VDI, and was about 2" deep.

    F2 Finds/nickel vs. test garden?

    I continue to get some time under my belt with my new F2 - approx 14 hrs in so far. No better place to cut some teeth than the local school yard... 1 hour netted $3.20 in clad and some other assorted junk and a bunch of can slaw. I was pleasantly surprised that the F2 hit a nickel at 7" -...

    Snowing/Bored = unscientific Silver air test

    Yes, air tests are unreliable and for the most part, meaningless. But, it's snowing here and I'm bored to death - so I did an unofficial air test with my Silver. Didn't get it out much at the end of last year - have to do much better this year. I know, I know, but it's either this or work on...

    Silver uMax scores my 1st ring...woot!

    At my local city park...thumbed the discrim, as slingshot said in his posts. Nice, short, repeatable tone well past 1c/zinc. Was only 2" down. 14k; purple stones are amethyst, yes? Prob not worth much, but tons o' fun to find! Funny, as a guy told me in passing yesterday that this park is...

    Impressed with first 30 mins w/ my Silver uMax

    My first (and short) hunt today with the new Silver uMax. Best hit was a bent and corroded penny at 5-1/2". What surprised me was the sensitivity to very small items - finding copper rivets off bluejeans? Maybe I should bring a strainer on my next hunt! I think I am going to like this Silver...

    Silver uMax - Back to MDing after 25 years

    Hi all! Been a 'lurker' here for awhile, thought I'd chime in. I will be receiving my Silver uMax hopefully some time this week! I'm getting back to MDing after a long, 25 year layoff. The bug bit me again when we were out on a shooting scene, and our local EV tech brought out a...
