    Favorite programs/settings???

    I typically use the "hot" program with the XY screen and tweak settings depending on where I'm at. I almost always use tracking ground balance. Mostly hunt old homesites, parks, school yards, and have a few farm fields on the agenda. Any favorite programs or tips/tricks for someone still...

    Permission Business Cards???

    Gonna get some cards made up on vista print to hopefully gain new permissions. Looking for different ideas on what they should say, include, omit, etc. Do you think business card size or postcard size would be more beneficial? Lastly, how do you negotiate finds? I would like to keep all...

    First 2 silvers with Racer 2....

    Just put the CORS Strike coil on my Racer 2 and found my first couple silvers today at an old drive in. The mystery item was found at an old courthouse. I'm thinking it was for a horse bridle maybe?

    Headphones for Makro Racer 2?

    Been away from the hobby a couple years but missed it and had to get back. After some research, I decided in the Racer 2. Looking for some headphone advice. Killer B's, Grey Ghosts, Makro wireless, or Z link and use my Beats by Dre Solo's? Appreciate any advice!

    Back to the hobby, got a makro 2...Any advice?

    Been away from the hobby a couple years but missed it so after some research I got a makro 2. Went to a local park this morning, found some clad and pull tabs, a shotgun shell casing, and a newer lock. Hunted in 3 tone and I noticed if the tone was high and the number was repeatable it was a...

    Test Garden tips???

    Got these today at a coin show to make a test garden. Any tips or instructions? I plan on varying the depths and maybe throwing a rusty nail or pull tab in the holes with a couple. Question is how deep should I bury them? Should I angle them or flat? I should have done this with the ETrac...

    Cleaning wheaties???

    What is the best method of cleaning wheaties? I have been letting them soak in olive oil the attempting to clean them with a tooth brush with little success. Vinegar leaves a reddish film on them. Is there an effective method?

    Good Day with the ETrac!!!

    Went to a couple old homesites today that I don't believe have ever been hunted. No silver coins but found 10 wheaties, $1.42 in Clad, this old toy truck, and this religious pendant that I think is silver. I am sure I missed coins and plan to go back in the future. I dug plenty of trash as...

    Intermittent tones?

    Took my ETrac to a local park and found my first silver with it, a 1942 mercury dime. Found some clad as well as a few rusty nails and bolts. Had something happen that confused me though. I was swinging along and got that nice high tone. Couldn't get it to repeat swinging slow but it was...

    TTF all the time?

    Just got my ETrac and have been reading as much as I can. Bought Andy's book and put his coin program on it. I also put goes4ever's TTF program. Is it effective to use TTF exclusively? It just seems like a more simple program and I like that. But, would I be missing coins in low iron areas...

    I have been wanting an ETrac since I first read about it. Put my AT Pro up for sale or trade last week. Got some great offers and was able to pick one up. A big thanks to Jeremy at Vance Metal Detectors!! I was very happy to find out I had a dealer 2 hours from me. He even met me in the...
