    Coil Size is everything

    BURP On SOV GT

    I'm new to this machine so please forgive me. Do bottle caps always burp. Every time I get the burp sound I dig it and its always been a bottle cap. Can I reliably say at this point that when the sov burps its going to be a bottle cap. I am saying this because on my whites machine I've gotten...

    Best Find With My V3I

    I like gold and silver..and old coins too. For me this historic find tops it. BTW I am starting to realize the 5.3 eclipse works best for me. I have a 4x6 on order. The V is very sensitive and I'm finding too many signals under my larger coils creates noise. Since I switched to the smaller...

    People...sometimes I hate them.

    Working the beach this PM I came across a guy working a water detector on the dry. He was walking and swinging so fast I couldn't believe it. He stops in front of me and exclaims that my detector is S$$T! I sad what? He said everyone knows that Whites are garbage. Now I'm speechless and to...

    Posting and Forum Traffric

    While I may know diddly about metal detecting I do know about web development. I noticed when posting to a string that may be 3 to 4 pages deep the string stays on that page. In other words a person with a potential answer to a question may never see that because most people stay on the first 2...

    Rob Is Right.

    This forum is dead, It has nothing to do with Facebook all you need to do is go to other areas of this site and see all the new posts as compared to the V3I section. I like it here but no one has much to say. Maybe its all been said before. Kind of reminds me of the DFX section. Also fairly...

    No Silver No Gold But The V3I Was On FIRE

Turned the rx down to 6 ...Disc 90 TX boost on and bottle-cap reject 1. These are the only changes I made to the stock salt beach...

    V3I Getting noisy Seems Like a Problem

    The first 2 weeks of owning my V3I were great, good finds, good depth. Lately it has become very noisy in spots that I have detected with it before. I can take the RX and the Disc way down and she still seems to false. Change coils no difference. A trip back to Oregon is in order. I am hoping...
