    Exchange 2 Update

    I haven't used exchange for a couple of years and when I launched it, it said there is an update available. I'm running version 1.8.7-1.1.10 It also said that I must uninstall this version before I can proceed with the update. I did a search here and didn't find any posts after 2012. If I...

    Coins Sinking

    Curious about what causes coins to sink? I suspect gravity does play a part, though eventually coins seem to stop sinking. Here in Canada with our cold winters frost pushes rocks to the surface. Just ask any farmer in my neck of the woods. Every spring the farmer must harvest a fresh crop of...

    Headphones

    I've never owed a set of headphones designed specifically for metal detecting but out of curiosity I've been considering buying a set of killer B's. (Other than what has been supplied with the detector) My question is whether they actually improve on the audio? I get the comfort and the cord...

    GTI2500 Threshold

    Does the threshold tone on the GTI2500 blank when the coil passes over a target that is discriminated out? I always assumed that it did as my whites V3i does, but recently noticed that it doesn't blank the audio. I normally hunt in zero mode so I have never ever noticed this. On one occasion I...

    White's TRX or Garrett's carrot?

    I'm thinking about buying a new pinpointer as my original Garrett's propointer is almost worn out. The vibration is getting mild. Not sure whether to go with either the TRX or the carrot?? If someone has tried or owns both, I would sure appreciate your comments. I'm sure there are pros and cons...

    Grey Ghost headphones or Others

    I have been contemplating purchasing a set of Grey Ghost or Killer B's or one of the other Detectorist specific headphones. I been doing a little research and I don't have the luxury of being able to try any of these. Looking for any opinions both good and bad. What do you like in terms of...

    AVG and Xchange 2

    My virus scanner is AVG and it has been isolating a file within exchange after I try logging in. AVG reports: Unknown is a generic description for unknown, medium-severity malware. If you receive such a warning, you've most likely come across a malicious file, and we recommend letting AVG remove...

    Playing Tones

    I'm not sure if I'm missing something obvious, but I can't ever get the 3030 to play tones when I'm making changes in the tone ID profiles as per page 45 in the manual. I just want to be able to hear the difference in the frequency if/when I make a change. It is always greyed out and the "play...

    Great Customer Service!!!

    I would like to thank White's for their great customer service! I had a 4x6 coil for my V3i that went out of tune and was overloading. I returned the coil which was actually out of warranty by a wee bit but wasn't used much. They re-tuned the coil and put it back in the mail within two days of...

    Ground Balance Question

    I am confused about the ground balance option. Am I understanding the manual correctly .....leaving the GB enable option UNCHECKED is what is considered auto ground balance and should be used for most areas? Should this also be the setting on fresh water beaches? Thanx.

    Good coil explanations DD vs Concentric

    http://www.garrett.com/hobbysite/hbby_searchcoil_tech_sheet_en.aspx I'm not sure if this link works, but if not go to Garrett's web site and read the writeup on coils. Good info for anyone that has wondered about the difference between coils.

    Audio Profiles

    I'm trying to get a better understanding of the different audio profiles and I'm wondering when/why a person might use the 50 CO over the combined profile. I assume the FE profiles would be the choice for relic hunters or maybe not??? I guess I'm wondering what the pros are using and why? Will...

    GTI 2500 with 12.5" coil

    I'm waiting for spring to arrive, and purchased the 12.5" imaging coil for my 2500 over winter. Quick question for anyone that has this coil. Have you noticed much difference between the 9.5 and the 12.5? I plan on using it on a fresh water beach in all metal mode. I've cleaned out most of the...

    Sizing in Analyze screen

    I'm a little confused about the sizing function in the analyze screen. Does the detector ever display anything other than 2 inches? Can this be changed? What does the two lines at the bottom of the camel hump depict in relation to the 2 inches?? Is the entire width of the screen two inches so if...

    Gold medallion??

    Found this on the beach last summer and almost threw it out. My wife was going through my old finds and said it feels heavy. I double checked on my V3I and it says gold??? 34 VDI and the analyze screen comes up strongest on 22.5 Khz. Also nice camel hump. Anybody have some sense what the...

    I didn't expect this.

    After changing many of the settings in the 5 stock programs, I decided to get back to default, so I did a reset on the settings. It also blew away all my custom programs! Not a huge problem,since I have them on my computer, but I sure didn't expect that to happen.
