    Pot Pipe, Silver and a Buffalo to boot.

    Trying to learn my new D2 coil today and I think it went rather well. The Jefferson is 1941, the buffalo is 1930 and the quarter is 1947 all found within 6 inches of each other at 5 inches deep. The pipe was a few feet away. The site has been hunted heavily through the years but is very...

    Coil Compatability

    I am thinking of buying a second detector as a backup. Will my v rated coils work with other Whites detectors?

    D2 First Impressions

    Finally got to take the D2 for a walk in the park today for about an hour. I have had it for about 4 months and just now got to try it out. In all the years of detecting I have never owned a dd. I took it to an area that I have hunted numerous times with many different detectors and I was...

    vx3 Coil Selection Question

    I do not own a V3i, but if I understand it correctly, when you change coils you must go into the programming and tell the machine what coil you are using. What does this actually do ? Also how is the performance of my VX3 affected when I change coils since it does not have this option? Is it...

    Sensitivity Probe Disappeared

    Just something I thought I would share that I have not seen commented on before. I have been using the new 5.3 coil the last couple of days and I when I tried to use the sensitivity probe it simply was not there. I thought it might have had something to do with the coil since I had never had a...

    shiny coil, shiny quarter

    Just put my new 5.3 on and got silver within 30 minutes. This coil is so easy to use where I hunt. The VDI's and depth were spot on with the coins. I was able to run the rx at 10, am at 60 and disc at 75 with no problems at all. I dug a piece of copper just slightly larger than a quarter at...

    Major disappointment with vx3

    Recently I have been trying hard to learn the secrets of the vx3, so I have been reading lots of comments on different forums and have learned a lot. One guy complained that he never dug a coin with the VX3 deeper than 3 inches and then I realized that neither have I. I have dug tons of shallow...

    rx gain

    Been using the vx3 for about a year now. Still have a lot to learn. What is the best and quickest way to determine what the rx gain should be set at when hunting a new site? Do you start high and then adjust down or start low and turn it up as you can, or is there a way to know exactly where...

    Pinpoint Silence

    I finally got to spend some time with my new VX3 Saturday at on old homesite that is very trashy, low mineralization, sandy soil. I was hunting primarily in factory c&j mode but occasionaly went to coin mode. RX at 10 most of the time, am sensitivity at 55, disc sensitivity at 75, Occasionaly...

    New to the VX3

    Hi guys, I am new to the forum and just got my first White's machine a few days ago. It is aVX3. I have used a Garrett GTI 2500 for about 10 years now and thought I knew how to metal detect, but the VX3 is a whole different animal. I have taken it out 3 times now for a total of about 6 hours...
