    CTX 3030 vs Equinox 800

    Hello, My wife and I each have the 3030. We are well accomplished, strictly beach hunters. We both like the idea of a lighter machine, but have heard negative things about the target ID for the 800 as compared to the 3030. We'll keep our 3030's, just wondering if it would be a big step down...

    CTX 3030 Updates

    Hello, I have (2) 3030's, I've contacted Kellyco many times to ask about sending my unit in for the arm cuff and battery compartment upgrade. After repeatedly being told that Minilab has not sent them any parts, I finally gave up. They were very gracious and said to keep calling back. I did...

    Dark Screen

    Hello, Heading out this afternoon with the wife. We each have the 3030, her's is the latest with all the new bells and whistles. Charged up the batteries and fired them both up and noticed that her screen is much darker than mine. I determined that the only differenced between the 2 machines...

    Scratchy Screen

    Greetings, my 3030 is a couple of years old now, the screen is pretty nicked up. Is there a fix for this?

    CTX 3030 Rejecting Pennies

    Yes, or no? I'm hunting So Cal beaches, there's ton's of pennies. I've been notching out 12.36 and passing them by. I've read that some have found fat gold rings around that number.

    Metal Detecting Pouch

    Hello, I previously posted this in the Sov GT, Ex Cal thread. Thought this may be a better place. Sorry for the redundancy. This is a bag I bought a few years back, it's pretty worn out. I've been wanting to replace it for awhile now, but I can't remember where I bought it. Whilst metal...

    Metal Detecting Goody Bag

    Hello, This is a bag I bought a few years back, it's pretty worn out. I've been wanting to replace it for awhile now, but I can't remember where I bought it. Whilst metal detecting on Santa Monica Beach last weekend I ran into Gene from Florida, swinging an Ex Cal. While exchanging...

    Sov GT Repair

    Hello, Awhile back I sent one of my GT's to Kellyco for repair. The battery contacts fell back inside the control box. They repaired it ok, but now there is a loose scree or or something rattling around inside the box. It doesn't appear to be doing any harm, but it's driving me nuts. I have...

    What Would You Buy

    Greetings, My wife and I each have a Sov GT and a Dual Field. We're primarily beach hunters but may wander on dry land one of these days. We like the Excal, but would like to know if theres anything new out there that would augment our arsenal. Thanks, SP

    Dual Field

    Greetings, 2 of the knobs on my DF became stripped, I contacted Whites and they sent me 4 replacements. The problem is that the set screws are so small that I can't find anything to tighten them with. They're not a flat head or phillips, the repair guy at Whites told me that they just use...

    Whites CTX 3030

    Greetings, The wife and I are strictly beach hunters, mostly in the wet sand and in the water. Our current arsenal includes 2 each of the Sov GT and the Whites Dual Field. The wife may have killed her Sov this past weekend. I may venture out and replace it with something else. I'd like to...

    Did My Wife Kill My Sov GT

    Greetings, My wife was using our Sov GT and had it on in a hip mount configuration. She bent over to pick up her scoop and the coil cable where it attaches to the box got wedged and cracked the case. See pic attached. If I were to send it to Minelab, do you think they could fix it? Thanks, SP

    Excalibur 2

    I'm thinking about purchasing an Excalibur to compliment my arsenal. We are very familiar with the Sov GT, so it should be an easy learning curve. Any special accessories like shaft upgrades, battery covers, coil upgrades, or, should we take it as it comes?

    WOT ?

    Question for you WOT users. I picked up 2 WOT coils and both have the same issue with the coil covers. Each one has it's own cover and they're not interchangeable. They fit very snug around the circle, but in the middle they have a 1/4" bow. I can literally push the cover in 1/4" before it...

    Last Nights Haul

    Out on the sand last night with my new WOT coil on the end of my Sov GT. What a great combination, runs just like the stock coil, but goes deeper and is much more sensitive. The tone differential between the targets was good before, now it's astonishing. Dime, penny, quarter, etc.... I new...

    Headphone Connection Problem

    The wife and I are strictly beach hunters. I carefully bag our boxes in ziplock bags, then place them into the old school Minelabs blue bags. This keeps the sand and salt out and gives us a chance if we fall in the water, as long as we get up quickly. The headphones on both units are starting...

    WOT Coils

    I just received a couple of WOT's to use on our Sov GT's for beach hunting. They came with a rubber washer, that I can't get on for the life of me. It goes between the shaft and the coil receptacle, on one side only. It would make for a snug fit, if I could just get the dang thing on. Every...

    I'm A Movie Star

    A couple of nights ago my daughter was flipping through the channels on her remote. There was a flash (about 3 seconds) of a beach scene just long enough for her to register the image. Something familiar caught her attention, she paused, and went back to the spot. And low an behold, it's me on...
