    Question on getting the basic deus II without remote to start with

    I generally go by audio most of the time….i don’t wear my glasses detecting so I can see anything much unless it’s within 14” of my face so the W6 on the wrist will be fine. After oh 40 years detecting I tired of too many adjustments to fiddle with. Loved all the top end detectors but like the...

    Question on getting the basic deus II without remote to start with

    I use it on old tote dirt roads closed to vehicles….just have to listen for the crazy dudes on atv but I can hear them coming long way off.

    Question on getting the basic deus II without remote to start with

    Cool….although the cost of the basic puck setup and then adding the remote later is the same as buying the complete setup actually. I don’t have the bigger bucks I did when I was working…🤬 Basically I need the lighter weight…the ability to have a more compact setup when it’s is slid down for my...

    Question on getting the basic deus II without remote to start with

    So money is always, for me, an issue in retirement especially on detectors. However I want to upgrade to a deus 11 for several reasons that this machine offers. Been detecting for 40 years so I have a firm grasp on my needs etc. With that said , if I get the basic setup meaning just the puck...

    Legend question

    I have said since day one the ground balance was an issue. I posted it months back and all I got was no that’s the way it is supposed to work. Well if that is supposed to then it’s worthless to me. It just can’t handle the ground changes in my area and the GB eventually is so far off it misses...

    Headphones?

    Mine are low latency at 40 ms which should be fast enough for most situations….it’s 40 milliseconds I doubt anyone is that quick brained. However the earbuds have to be in the proper mode as well some have different modes. Then again I swing at a slower speed since fast won’t last and haste...

    What are your beliefs about metal detector? Old Tech VS New?

    I’ve been detecting for 40 years so grew up with all the changes in technology in detecting. Have had many many detectors of all brands except the XP deus. I still prefer a detector that can run as analog as is possible considering all detectors now have some sort of processor in them. When I...

    Headphones?

    I use them…work fine if you get low latency. I don’t like sweating in earphones when it’s humid either. Volume isn’t as punchy with earbuds but certainly can hear fine I just have to max the volume to 6

    Threshold

    Well that explains it then…I like a slight threshold hum but noticed the 11-12 thing using the Bluetooth. So they are aware…cool

    Finally bit the bullet…..what O.S. ?

    I will add that I do not like the ground balance whatsoever in 1.09. I down rev to 1.07. I find that in field mode it would not ground balance in our dried out drought soil whatsoever. Pop over to park and it’s fine but not in field just won’t get a tone to hear the ground the go number just...

    Impact verses Anfibio

    Without getting super into all the differences....I am looking at either one. Now I have been detecting for 35 years so I have used most...but not either one of these. I sell off my stuff in fall usually and rebuy in spring so time to get a new unit for the year. I had the Fors Cor...it was...

    Makro Racer 2..what is C1 C2 C3 C4

    O.K..maybe I missed it in the manual but I was detecting yesterday and I was adjusting..so I thought the tone break for the 3 tone mode. Well I was for a moment then all of a sudden I see C1 on the screen then if I pressed the right arrow button it went to C2 C3 C4 etc. Not sure what this was...

    ANyone try the CoRS series of coils

    I realize that CORS is an offshoot of NEL...and I have had mixed results with NEL...nothing bad just some good and some just sort of neutral. I setup a 705 as a backup machine to my FoRS CoRe or really as a complimentary unit...and I like the style of the Scout size but not interested in being...

    More deep field hunting with the BIG coil

    After having great results in a local hay field I decided to take it to a true test site. Backstory though. The site I took it to is a cellar hole area in the woods. Now the ground is more mild here with a GB around 63 verses 83 in the hay fields near the coast. This particular spot has...

    Using the BIG COIL in the field

    I have to say that of all the BIG COILS I have used over the decades that the FORS is probably the best. Not really going to go on and on about this and that as plenty of people have one and may have used it but....... For one it is fairly well balanced for a big coil...more so than most any...

    How about...what a oddball stuff have you found in the woods/wilderness..no detector required

    O.k.....I started detecting in 1985 on a serious level...so thats 31 years now. I have detected all over the Maine and NH woods as well as prospecting for 4 years in the Az mountains. The oddest things have been found without a detector. I have stumbled into more marijuana grows than I care to...

    Sticking pinpoint rocker switch

    Since I got mine second hand I am not sure if ths has been an issue but mine keeps sticking on...very annoying. Did they go from a pushbutton to the rocker or vice versa. Other than that I like the machine...actually used the big coil today in a colonial field along with the stock coil. The...

    How about this...what was the FIRST detector that just blew you away...

    The thread below on what was your first detector got me thinking. My first detector was a blue box Bounty Hunter back in 75...that thing just mesmerized me...I was hooked. But...the first detector that just floored me was the Whites Spectrum XLT. I paid $1100.00 new for one when they first...

    Using photoshop Elements to help ID coins..

    I have explained how to do this before but here is a short video. This works extremely well on most copper and pewter based coins that are very corrode BUT you have some detail to work with..even just a smidge works. Now in the video I said you can download Elements for free...which is true but...
