    A Few More Hunts Under My Belt

    I have a couple of more hunts at my pounded spots with the VX9 version 2.07 and I am getting a feel for it's capabilities. I cannot stress enough on how hard my hunting spots have been "pounded". On top of heavy pressure, coins are deep. It is rare to find a silver coin less than 8 inches deep...

    Update on Vortex

    I have now used the Vx9 for four hunts and about 10 hours. The first three hunts produced 45 coins with 3 being wheat pennies and 1 silver war nickel. Nothing more than 6 inches deep, but finding these coins gave me hope for the Vortex. The fourth hunt took me to one of the trashiest places I...

    New Vortex vx 9

    Been waiting for some ground to thaw here in northeast Ohio. Yesterday my south facing front lawn was somewhat unfrozen and took the Vortex for a quick spin. I ran it wide open with no filters in zero mode. Ps, one of the best detectors I have used for quick adjustments. Super easy! I have...

    Any Videos of Updates

    I know Garrett delayed shipping the Vortex until the new updates were added. I have not heard exactly what these updates are and I have not seen any videos of them. Does anyone have any information? Thanks!

    Vortex Bang for Buck

    I am hoping the Vortex will perform on par with the Legend and Nox. At 599, I am not expecting it to compete with Deus 2 and Manticore. The last American company to compete with Minelab was the Whites v3 series. I always found that detector to equal the Explorer series. It was complicated, but...

    Simplex Ultra Headphone Question

    I am considering the new Ultra and have a headphone question. Will my Legend wireless phones work with the Ultra? If they do work with the Ultra, can the headphones be paired with two different detectors or will I have to pair them each time I change detectors? I could save a little cash if they...

    Gold Coin Story From T-DUB'Finds Post

    For the record, I have never found a gold coin and I am envious of the rare few who have found one. I started this post as to not contaminate his post. I hunt several large parks that date to the late 1890's-early 1900's. They are still in use so you can imagine what a 100 years of all sorts...

    Thinking About Down Sizing

    I have been taking the Etrac to my favorite park and have been coming home "skunked". This place has been my all time favorite detecting spot, producing hundreds of silver and into the thousands of wheat pennies. I always can find at least a wheat or two, but the last three hunts were terrible...

    Simplex Ultra Headphone Adapter

    Is the Simplex plus and the new Simplex series headphone adapter the same adapther used on the Legend? It appears to be identical. I am considering the new Ultra and want to use the Legend adapter on the Simplex as a backup to the wireless phones. Thanks

    Great Morning With the Trac

    Last night I layed in bed figuring out where I would hunt this am. I decided on my "old stand bye" spot. This spot hosted a Christmas lighting display that was just taken down. I decided to hunt where the displays stood. In the first hour I found three coins and all were deep wheats(8-10 inches...

    Wireless Headphones For Etrac

    I am checking to see if anyone is using wireless headphones with the Etrac. I have been spoiled using them on my other detectors. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

    Loretone Rock Tumbler

    I have been using this Loretone tumbler to clean my clad coins for 26 years. The model I have is a dual tub. I estimate that I have cleaned close to 100,00 coins with this model without even changing a belt. Every year I tell myself to buy some spare belts, but I always forget. In the first...

    Legend Observations

    It is winter in northeast Ohio and besides the cold weather I have been dealing with a bad knee. Today, between rains, I took my Legend version 1.09 to my side yard. In the last couple of years I have found about 20 wheat pennies in a 12 foot by 12 foot area and all were 8 plus inches deep. The...

    Oh No!

    I got a decent day here in northeast Ohio so I charged the Etrac battery and headed out this am. I hunted for about a half hour when I realized I was not getting any high tones at all. It appeared that all numbers and tones were out of sync. I do dig my share of deep small rusty iron with the...

    Silver Streak

    I have had a great late fall detecting season for finding silver with the Etrac. Last week in northeast Ohio we had sub zero weather and 50 mph winds. The last two days have been in the 40's and most of the snow has melted. Yesterday's forecast was predicting high 50's with 30% chance of rain. I...

    Incredible Month

    I have my favorite park where I have found well over 700 silver coins. The last couple of years have not been real successful for silver, but tons of wheats. This park dates back to the early 1900's and my oldest coins from this park have been Indians and V nickels. Without checking my...

    Memorable Day with Etrac

    I have been detecting for over 26 years and today, I had one of my best days variety wise. I started the day off with a deep wheatie and my second coin was a real beauty, a clear date 1928 Standing Liberty quarter. Two more wheats before a Buffalo nickel. Ten feet away, a nice mercury dime...

    Etrac-Pounded Park What Happens Next?

    I have been using my new Legend for the last couple of weeks and I am starting to believe in this detector. I found a handful of wheat pennies and loads of nickels with the Legend at my favorite park. Last Friday I decided to grab the Etrac and grid some small areas of this park where I have...
