    Is the V3i something that needs software upgrades? I bought it used (twice used) and the serial sticker says it was built in 2014 but am curious if there are different software revisions or should I be good to go?

    Question about pinpoint mode

    Very new to the V3i. Searching an old park today. Occasionally, I'd get a fairly good signal swinging left and right but when I would pull the trigger to go in pinpoint mode, I'd find nothing in the area I was scanning. This happened on several targets. Other targets it would work fine. I never...

    Loop Supports - Ok with a underwater detector?

    Is it ok to add a loop support to a water detector? The screw/nut combination thingy on my Surfmaster PI is loose and although I can tighten it up - it loosens right back up. Will the support fix this? Thanks for your help! Chris

    Question about freshwater lake temperatures.

If I'm going to be searching thermally unprotected, what is a safe minimum temperature to go from? Is 51 too cold? I rtealize some...

    New owner of a Surfmaster PI Plus

    Today I became the owner of a very gently used Surfmaster PI Plus with weighted coil. This will be my first underwater detector so I will be doing a lot of learning. I already realize that a better choice could have been made for my "freshwater" hunting but budgetary reasons ($300) prevented me...

    Long-Handled Sand Scoop Question

    I'm soon going to have my first water detector. I will be doing mainly sandy beaches in freshwater.

    Question about a good price on a Surfmaster II Plus

    I've been involved in ground-based detectors for many years and I have a good feeling for their value.
