    blew the dust off the f-44 and put in fresh batteries...... and away I went...

    really due to lack of interest, but also ALOT of rain and rain and rain here in NE ohio I told myself what the hell and go out for a few hrs to detect. I picked a large playground adjacent to school thats been around probably 70 yrs. I've been to the playground I'm guessing 50 times over the...

    after 96 hrs in a vibrating tumbler using crushed corn cob as the abrasive and threw in a bunch of dug wheats from yrs past to act as more abrasive...................... Unfortunately there is NO visible identifying features at all !! But, it is the exact same size as a...

    Back from OBX yesterday............ this was the trip from hell !!!

    Got down there last fri evening right in the middle of tropical storm ( whoever..) torrential rain 40-50 mph wind gusting higher at times. and pitch black. Sat surveyed the beach and not a single cut to be see, but loaded with black sand everywhere. Shells out the wazoo thinking some thing...

    who out there is still using a cz-20 that was converted to a 21 ??

    I had mine converted last season but only used it once since then. Do u think the conversion was/is an improvement ( if it is, in what way )... or no noticeable change what-so-ever. Just curious on your thoughts.. Mark ( ohio )

    Finally the first hunt of the yr... after 25+yrs of doing this, I commit the biggest rookie mistake...

    decide to use the "quish 440 " to hunt a local playground. SO the detector sat in the basement over the winter and I of course turned it on to see what the battery strength was. All looked good so off I went. After about 30 minutes it shut off. I thought I must have hit the power button some...

    So who here watched last nights episode of beyond oak island.. looking for Cornwallis treasure ?? My real question is this......

    How the hell do you become a metal detection expert ? The girl/woman last night couldn't have been more than 30/35 yrs of age. Do you just find an attractive girl, hand her a detector and slap the title of expert to your name ? Alot/most of the people on this site have more time in this...

    This Quest detector being talked about a few threads below.....

    What country produces this detector who handles U S sales and where does the repair work take place should it Cr%p the bed ? The high end models "look " promising , priced about what a mid-level detector from known producers are charging. Mark ( ohio)

    Took advantage of probably the last good weather day in NE Ohio ( at least the next 14 days )

    spent about 2 hrs at a large park sports field with the nox 600. Lots of quarters a few dimes some pennies too. I dug everything in the 10-17 range hoping for a gold ring. NADA.... Just one nickel ( rang a 12 ) all the rest was various sizes of aluminum junk, beaver tails, and old pull tab...

    for the guys who hunt large sports fields and picnic meadows with a Nox 600-800...

    have any of you found any gold rings that ring up in the 4-10 range on the vid. I'm still going thru the learning curve on this, but all those numbers are turning out to be various sizes of aluminum junk pieces. What say you.. Mark ( ohio )

    I'm starting to get irritated with this nox 600... it is so freaking susceptible to emi interference ....

    I took advantage of the great weather today and hunted a playground area of about 4 acres. Nearby is a large cell phone tower, then high tension wires maybe 2000 feet away. Now I've hunted here for yrs with an explorer and exp II, a fisher f-44 a quish 440 and a bunch of others. Was able to...

    Dammit, the beaches of lake Erie pulled me back to them today.... 110 mile round trip this time

    but had a new heater with me, the nox 600 and tony Eisenhower custom headphones. I'm still going thru the learning curve with this 600 ( sometimes I wish I just had my o'le exp II with me ). First target was a silver toe ring, great I thought then crickets for a hell of a long time !! 56...

    So I'm wondering, I'm still getting a grip on this nox 600 detector... Is there a benefit using

    park 1 over park 2 or vice versa?? will you get a different vid readout ? Any help. Mark ( ohio )
  18. M

    Hate to ask what could be a dumb question, but here it goes...

    So I'm going to use waterproof ( tony eisenhower ) headphones with the nox 600. Do I have to put any sort of sealant on the connection to be certain it doesn't leak ? Thanks Mark ( ohio )
  19. M

    Your opinion on what waterproof headfones do I choose for the nox 600

    Really only thought of the GG amphibians but evidently theres these patriots and tony Eisenhower's worth a strong look. Not familiar with the last two at all. Anyone ever use all three to compare build quality, sound etc... What do you think. Mark ( ohio )
  20. M

    So I just received a brand new nox 600...

    How do I know I have the latest version running ? Is there a series of buttons to press to see what version I have ? Any help. Mark ( ohio )
