    Ultra Bluetooth

    I found out by accident that my 'bone induction' headphones work great with my Nox 800. I can now wear a brimmed hat, hear the tones perfectly and still hear rattlesnakes and conversations. I'm not sure I can ever go back to over the ear headphones. I really want to try the Ultra but can't seem...

    Let me pick your brains...

    I'm trying to figure out what detector to get for a loaner. Whether it be grandkids, friends or folks who have given me permission to hunt their property and want to join in. I'm looking to spend under $400 and don't really have a problem with buying used. About my only requirements are that...

    I'm going to miss the Tesoro business model

    Years ago, my good friend backed his Bronco right over his Tesoro Golden Sabre which had been leaning against his rear bumper. He sent it into Tesoro and they sent him a brand new machine. After he told me this, I had to get a Tesoro. I wanted to do business with a company that had such a...

    It finally happened!!!

    I have read about all those folks who had the ears break on their stock red Racer coils or had the coil attachment bolt break. I figured maybe I had lucked out and gotten one of the good ones. Took a little trip last week. Didn't expect to have time to detect but brought the Racer anyway...

    So... What am I missing???

    After reading several reviews on it, I purchased the Makro Racer Pro Pack almost two years ago. Although I have not put in enough hours on it to become an expert, I feel very comfortable with the machine and like what it has found for me. While I initially hated that it didn't save settings like...

    TRX pinpointer and M6 - do they interfere with one another?

    I've got the Garrett Propointer AT and it just drives my m6 nuts - or drives me nuts listening to them talk to each other. Would I have the same problem with the TRX pinpointer?

    Trust the Racer

    On my last adventure with the Racer I got a lot of iffy signals, none of which turned out to be keepers. Of the ones that gave me the clear "dig me" sound, only one was junk - or so I thought. I figured for having such a clear signal for keepers, I couldn't really be too upset if one of the...

    Looking for some quick help!

    Due to my detecting partner having to back out of our weekly Thursday hunt, I'm going to go by myself to one of the worst iron infested areas that I know of, a place that he absolutely hates! All I have done thus far with the Racer has been parks and tot lots. I could sure do with any pointers...

    Help! Wireless headphone issue has me befuddled

    I have a set of Auvio wireless headphones that I just love to use with my Etrac and M6 and they work fine on the Minelab GoFind 60 as well. Tried them on the Racer and I get sound for about 10 seconds and then it stops going through the headphones and starts going through the speaker. If I...

    Question for those with shoulder problems...

    Over the past year or so, I've seen many posts about people leaving other detectors (mainly Minelabs) and going to the Deus for the weight due to shoulder problems. As my doctor just diagnosed me with "repetitive motion injury in the anterior deltoid", I'm wondering how people who have gone to...

    How is the Racer for tall people?

    I'm seriously considering the purchase of a racer. I'm 6'7" tall and use tall men's lower rods on both my M6 and Etrac. Are longer rods available for the racer and, if not, how is it for taller folks? Thanks. I'm anxious to hear!

    My Detecting "Rig"

    One of my detecting buddies is always after me to sell him my "detecting rig" as he calls it. He seems really envious about how well everything fits. I like the way it works for me. Just thought I'd share some pictures of it in case any of you want to put together something like it.... ,And...

    OK, folks! Sell me on the GB Pro!!!

    I've got the itch to try something new and Del suggested the GB Pro which I've never really considered before. I currently use an Etrac for ghost towns and an M6 for modern public areas. The M6 is great for gold but a little heavy. Would sure love to see what you folks love about your GB...

    Will this work?

    I have a big ol' melon head and many headphones prove to be too small. So when I bought, I got the WS-4 backphones. Well, apparently my head is big around the back too cause they just barely fit and become really annoying after about an hour or two. If I buy the wireless adapter, snap it on the...

    Best Stock Program for Beginners

    First time out with the Deus, I opted to use the Deus Fast program, since that would seem to be the best option for hunting ghost towns, even though I was hunting parks. Crazy signals, it was chattering even with the coil perfectly still. I realize now that to learn the machine, I will have to...

    MAJOR Disappointment!!!

    Just recently got my Deus and was somewhat relieved when I saw a headphone jack on the control box (lower right under the rubber). I figured if I didn't like the backphones (which I don't - too small to be comfortable for my gigantic noggin), I could always use the headphone jack with my Auvio...

    For those coming over from the Etrac...

    I have to say, especially after reading Andy's book, the Deus seems incredibly complex. Just within the last year, I have gotten to the point where I had full confidence that I was wringing every last drop of performance out of my Etrac. Will I get to that point quicker with the Deus than I did...

    What accessories?

    My Deus purchase came with a voucher worth $100 toward accessories. What accessories do you folks think would be most useful? I figured extra coil clip, extra three way USB (for backups) and maybe a headphone adapter. What else would be most useful? Thanks for your opinions!

    QUICK question

    Just got my Deus with WS-4 back phones yesterday. I am about halfway through the owner's manual and 1/10th through Andy's book. I'm leaving in about an hour to a new spot. Since I haven't found the answer in the books yet, I thought I'd ask you guys a quick question: Can I plug my regular...
