    XP headphones my review

    First off let me say that I have purchased each and every pair of the headphones that will be mentioned. I was not given a pair by any dealer or manufacturer. I'm not a famous detectorist just a guy who enjoys the hobby. First up the WS4. Great sound but hard for me to keep on my ears. I find...

    A few relics from the last week of 2013

    Over the Christmas holidays I found a Calvary picket about a mile and shall from the house. I hunted it a couple of days and my brother came in for the weekend and we hunted it a couple of more days. We found a few bullets, three eagle buttons, almost a complete spur and other odds and ends...

    Ears breaking off 10.5" coil.

    Christmas Day I was trying a new spot looking for civil war relics. Started finding a few bullets and about an hour and a half into the dig both ears broke of my 10.5" 7.5 kHz coil. I have seen where this has happened to others in the past. First question I have I what is the length of...

    Considering a Deus & have a few questions

    I have been kicking around the idea of getting a Deus for probably a few months. I have several detectors presently (F75 G2 Xterra 705 and the CTX). I mainly relic hunt and use the F75 and G2 in the iron. That is what I would replace with a Deus. The F75 as we all know is a chatter box most of...

    Question as to why on TID numbers

    I have seen others ask similar questions and the explanations made sense. For example how a coin could read lower than expected if iron was in the hole with the coin. Tonight I went to a site that I have been to several times with at least four different detectors. It is an old house place at...

    "A" find with the CTX

    I have been looking for a early war camp for some time. Yesterday I made another excursion to try and find the camp with some new information and permissions. Second signal of the day the "A" comes out. The camp isn't at this spot but I would think I am getting closer.

    Afraid of the cold and snow? The CTX isn't

    Morelic and I went last Saturday the 23rd to a civil war camp that I hadn'f been to in several years. The forcast was for the high to be in the upper 30's but we decided to make the journey anyway. The landowner said that there was snow on the ground but being only a couple of hours away and...

    Target Trace Interpretation Questions

    On my CTX I have target trace turned on and understand the colors and the cursor. I guess these would be no brainier types of targets. I have searched for posts on target trace but I haven't found the answer to my following questions. I understand that a horizontal red or orange line may be...

    CTX users in VA or similar location

    A friend of mine has family in VA and was wanting to take his CTX to relic hunt. Was wondering if anyone there has been using the CTX to hunt relics in VA or similar soil. Was wondering if someone would care to share their settings for hunting in similar ground conditions. FC or GC TTF or...

    Question on coils

    I have several detectors and like each one. I am now trying to make each one a little more specialized for certain types of detecting. So the question is which extra coil for the G2 would be best. I mainly relic hunt and the stock coil is good from time to time when field hunting but I have...

    My first seated coin after 20 years of detecting

    First I would like to say thanks to all that I have pestered with questions about the CTX and programs. Ray-Mo Evan Guvner ironman and others. I went today to scout for a civil war camp old road and creek crossing I knew there had to be something there. After an hour or so all I had was a...

    Exchange 2 question

    Now that my fellow CTX users has given me some ideas for new programs I have the CTX full. My question is there a way to save previous programs and or the preset programs to a folder in exchange 2 to go back to while I play with all the new ones and add some more new ones that have been shared...

    Request for some new settings to try

    I have been using the combine with ferrous coin (gonehunting's settings) basically since I purchased the CTX. I really like this program for most of my detecting but recently I have found two old house sites that nothing is left above ground. So you can imagine the amount of iron in the...

    Bow Hunt turned Relic Hunt

    I took off the last few days and bow hunted. Saw several deer but still kind of hot and did not want to mess with one right now. The place I bow hunt has an 1830's military road running right through the middle of it. I have the old plat maps with the road and lay of the land and creeks so I...

    Technical coil question for the group

    I have been using the CTX exclusively lately trying to learn it. I have been using the ferrous coin and combine I have noticed that when I hit a target and start the process of deciding to dig and pinpointing I try several things. Pinpointing and the wiggle back recently. I have noticed in...

    So far so good this weekend

    I could barely wait to get off work. Issac gave us a little rain in the Ozarks and I was ready when the bell rang at 500 pm on Friday. Went back to the spot I found the coins last weekend and the first target came in at 12-09. I had not dug a nickle yet with the CTX but the time was right...

    Question for the water hunters on scoops

    I have never hunter the water and was wondering what kind of scoop is recommended. I doubt that I will hunt the sand of a beach anytime soon. My water hunting would be more likely in the fresh water setting with rocks and mud. Suggestions on type, weight, handle length and whatever else I...

    Discussion on Tones used and why?

    It seemed kind of slow on the forum today and this evening so I thought I would ask a question for me and some of the other new users. Which tone settings do you use and why? I have been using the combine settings from GH's combine mode and I like them but was wondering what other time...

    Opinions on modes and patterns

    I have been using GH's combine mode with the CTX. Today I added a couple of programs with some tweaks to the original combine mode. One I set up with pattern one as an open screen and pattern 2 is with Digger's old coin program with fast recovery selected. Will this work better on shallow...
