    Does adjusting the Infinium's frequency influence depth in different environments?

    I recently got a brand new Infinium and have taken it out on one 3 hour hunt so far (hopefully two more this weekend). I am mostly going to be using it to hunt the beaches in New England and in particular the beaches in New Hampshire and north Mass. which have a lot of black sand (well its...

    T2 and T2 SE upgrade info?

    I see that First Texas has posted info on doing upgrades to the F75 and F75 LTD to upgrade them with the Active Shielding, Fast Mode, 4 levels of iron audio, adjustable pitch, and serial numbers displayed on the LCD. I assume this upgrade is also going to be made available to T2 owners? If...

    Anybody use both a shadow x5 and a G2?

    I was wondering if it is right to think of the G2 as a successor to the shadow x5, both designed by Dave J., both operate at 19Khz. Is the G2 a digital version of the x5 (with engineering enhancements) and a meter? anybody hunted with both of these machine can compare them?

    how much deeper, dfx compaired to v3 an vx3

    I am a long time DFX user who recently picked up a VX3, mostly because I was offered the VX3 for $625 which I couldn't resist. My overall impression is that VX3 is slightly deeper than the DFX my maybe 1 to 2 inches. However the VX3 gets good depth without any real setup while I only good...

    ? V3 Any Help

    Hi Bill - I watch the BST forums on several websites here and elsewhere as a matter of course. I have a seen a number of upgraded V3's go for $950 up to $1050 without extra coils but with the wireless headphones. I would subtract the $125 upgrade fee from $950 which makes $825 for the price I...

    Pinpointer Compatibility

    The Garrett also has 360 degree sensitivity along the barrel (as per the propointer page on Garrett's website) though anyone who has used one for any length of time should have discovered this by themselves already. Where are you getting your info about the Propointer? where ever it is, it...

    Pinpointer Compatibility

    Never mind - someone else already pointed out that it is VLF @ 12Khz, sorry for the redundent post.

    Pinpointer Compatibility

    The ML pretty much looks, feels, and works about the same the Garrett. The 9 volt battery drops in the same way with the same sort of cover, both have sealed rubber on/off switchs, the ML has sealed rubber High/Low switch, both have vibrate & sound but you can turn off the sound on the ML, both...

    What does the "factory upgrade" for the VX3 do?

    Wow that was a great fix. :clapping: Depth is where I would expect it to be for a machine in this price range, much improved and in the same range as my Explorer SE PRO and Teknetcs T2 SE. Audio ran all day with no problems.

    What does the "factory upgrade" for the VX3 do?

    Thanks for clearing that up Carl. Whatever Centerville did, I sure hopes it gives the machine better depth than it had before and also that the audio doesn't stop working completely again. I'll give it a good work out tomorrow and see how it does.

    What does the "factory upgrade" for the VX3 do?

    Thanks for the info, I wasn't too happy with the depth I was getting before and mine was made last year and sold in January of this year so it fits the profile for the update. I wish I could get out before the weekend to check it out but things at work are going like a house a fire right now...

    What does the "factory upgrade" for the VX3 do?

    I agree I don't think it is an upgrade, it is an update. I think they may have found a couple of bugs (and maybe one can affect the audio) and perhaps optomized some of the internal settings and so they made a new bios (the software inside of the detector) and they updated that software to fix...

    What does the "factory upgrade" for the VX3 do?

    Here is a scan of the service record with the personal details blacked out. It says update, I don't see why they would say update instead of reset as that would be misleading to most I think.

    What does the "factory upgrade" for the VX3 do?

    Well once it is back I will see what if anything the paperwork says and more importantly when I have a chance to get it out I will see if I notice anything different in the menus or anything. I hope that the technician didn't just misspeak as I got sort of excited when I heard him say factory...

    What does the "factory upgrade" for the VX3 do?

    The technician I spoke with definitely said "factory upgrade" and I repeated it to him and he confirmed that is what he said. I wish I had thought to ask what it did when I had him on the phone. Maybe he meant factory reset but I don't think he would have mentioned something so trivial when he...

    What does the "factory upgrade" for the VX3 do?

    My VX3's audio was intermittantly cutting out completely (on both speaker and headphones) and so I sent it in for repair. When I talked to them and found out what they had done and when they were shipping it back to me, I was told that they replaced the audio daughter board and did a factory...
