    Which Simplex to use

    I thought 2.77 and 2.78 both have the mute feature. I thought 2.78 simply took off the ID numbers at deep depth?

    First Time - New Simplex+

    Received mine with 2.78 tried 2.77 and see no reason to go back to 2.78.

    Moving to Texas from NJ

    Live in Houston/Pasadena for 35+ years before moving back north. Explore the whole state. It's about 6 states in one. Also sure there may be others but a good MD shop in The Woodlands. Good people.

    SP24 vs. NEL Sharpshooter 9.5

    Thanks. I did a quick check and nobody stocked them anyway. Maybe a result of the war in Ukraine (since they are manufactured there)?

    No hijack - thanks for the input.

    SP24 vs. NEL Sharpshooter 9.5

    I have the SP24 and like it a lot. Does anyone know what the difference here is? Worth purchasing now that I already have the SP24 or would the NEL have been a better option?

    Finding Property Markers - Any Tips?

    Finally got to the property last evening. Initial guess as to where the marker was located was a bit off but found it rather easily using all metal mode. Used SP24 because I didn't feel like changing coils. Friend had already located one himself so I just took a reading off that and machine...

    Finding Property Markers - Any Tips?

    Hi all - I have been asked by a friend to help locate property markers. All I know is his property boarders the empty lot that has just been sold. He says he has an idea where they are. From what I can tell, the area should be relatively trash free. Any tips to help me make this a success...

    Field Mode - Can Someone Tell Me What I Am Missing?

    Yeah, man. You didn't know that? This country's founded... it was founded by people who were into aliens, man. George Washington, man. He was in a cult. And the cult was into aliens, man. You didn't know that? No, 2.77 is the perfect version :). Seriously, IDK but I will test again, maybe tonight.

    Field Mode - Can Someone Tell Me What I Am Missing?

    Correct @gfatizzi. Lower tone with the dime even though it is 82. @Odanscoils that is bizarre for sure. Thanks all. Also this was air test. I'll try outside once it quits snowing and temp goes above 28 o_O

    Field Mode - Can Someone Tell Me What I Am Missing?

    I am running 2.77. According to manual (actually Andy's book). Field is 2-tone 0-15 and 16-99. I have a silver half and a Mercury dime separated by 6" or so. Half rings up 95 and dime at 82 but why does the dime have a lower tone than the half? Maybe I am overthinking this?

    Simplex vs. EMI

    I guess I was reasonably close to the router/modem but would this affect it sometime but not others?

    Simplex vs. EMI

    OK, so I have seen this issue reported before in multiple forums and FB groups. I went out to try and find my silver quarter (see my post on depth). I turn on the Simplex and it goes wild. Even before ground balancing and then after - VDI going crazy even when I hold the detector with coil...

    Depth....What to expect?

    Thanks all. I guess I will just need to find me a spot with legitimate buried targets! I did try to locate the quarter with the stock coil and was getting a scratchy signal but it was cold as the dickens and I gave up.

    Depth....What to expect?

    Maybe it's my soil? I will try with the stock coil. I see videos of people hitting dime @ 9" but I don't know their soil. I'll also dig the quarter out and bury it shallower.

    Depth....What to expect?

    Hi all, after a pretty much wasted 2021 I am trying to relearn the Simplex before the season ends. Scenario: Backyard, NW Indiana, 2.77 with SP24. I am getting no decent signals. House was built 1933. Fair enough. Maybe previous occupants just didn't lose much. I have already found a few...

    Tracker IV Beach Question

    Hi, I was just given a Tracker IV. I am grateful since I had to sell my White's a few months ago. Now, I'm getting pumped since I'm reading some nice things about this machine. Was wondering if anyone had any experience/luck on salt beaches? Thanks, Rick78
