    Settings for a gold necklace

    I've been told about a lost gold necklace on a school field. What settings would you recommend that I use to maximize my chances of finding it? What should I notch out? Should I go with one particular frequency? I'm using a 600. Thanks in advance.

    "Waterproofness?"

    Hi, I have just acquired an MX Sport. I understand that the adapter to the quarter inch headphone jack is not going to be waterproof. What I'm wondering is, what does it take to be able to submerge my machine as well as dig at the same time? I'm

    My sleigh bell pattern

    Give it a try! (I've posted this before. Hope it's OK to do so again.)

    Name on pictures?

    I'm wondering if there's a way to put my name on the pictures that I've taken. Something very subtle, small, in the corner. Even just my initials would be fine. Last Christmas my wife and I got a nice family calendar fromm my brother. Turns out about half of the shots were mine, ones that...

    One ways hits

    I recently got an AT Pro to complement my E Trac. With the ET, one way hits are almost always trash. Is the same true for the Pro? I've found nothing but junk with one way hits, so I'm wondering if there's any point in checking them.

    Quick GB question

    I recall reading that one should ground balance in a particular mode, but I can't seem to find any info. Please refresh my memory.

    Yosemite critters

    This is one of the bears I encountered while in the back country on the John Muir Trail, which has it's northern terminus in Yosemite. I was out trying to learn to fly fish when he came up behind me. I was startled as he's a rather large bear, but was more worried that my girlfriend (now wife)...

    Lithium and O-rings

    I just got my ATP last week and, so far, have been amazed. My first dig was a musket ball in a pretty well scoured area. I also got my first kepi buckle in a very well pounded area. Separation is amazing and it's so simple to use. The lack of bells and whistles makes digging so much more...

    Anyone know what model this is?

    I saw this picture and was wondering what machine this is and if it has any value over $50. Any info would be appreciated.

    Upgrade question

    Hi, I'm considering trading an older MXT for a newer ATP. The gentleman says he bought his ATP in "June or July of 2011" and he doesn't know anything about an upgrade. He has also posted comments (on another forum) about having trouble "hearing the tones" due to hearing problems, as well as...

    A quick headphones question

    I'm hoping to get an ATP in the near future, mostly for river hunting. I'll be in shallow water, maybe 4 feet max. My question is about the stock headphones. I understand they're not waterproof, but is everything but the earpieces waterproof? Can I submerge all but the headpiece? Is the...

    Why are so many ATP's for sale?

    I'm very interested in the ATP. I've read more than enough testimonies by respected diggers to decide that it's probably going to be my next machine. My question, therefore, is this: why are so many of these machines up for sale? The only reason I can see is that it's too challenging for some...

    Is it raining?!

    I can't believe that there are about 300 posts regarding a machine that isn't even out yet. All of this conjecture based on a 30 second video, 15 seconds of which aren't even about the machine! I understand the excitement, but some folks are a bit over the top! Too much anger and debate...

    Numbers?

    I hate to ask a stupid question, but what do the numbers, such as 12-48, stand for? I've been reading about ET finds and seeing these digits thrown about and I'd like it if they meant something to me. I should also say that I hope to be an ET owner someday.

    Had another great day

    Last week, I was able to get out to my first cellar hole. The site was in N. Hampshire and was found by Jason, a friend of another person I met up there. The first find was a nice colonial button, on edge, which is why the others may have missed it. Then I got an iffy signal, kinda good...

    Finally broke into the 1700's!

    I was taken by a friend to a spot that used to be an old stagecoach route back in the 1700's. The area is quite large and has been hit for a few years. I was lucky enough to find a nice hot spot, where I spent most of my time. I managed to find 10 flat buttons and my first and second King...

    My Omega's whacked!

    I need some help; there's something wrong with my machine. I took it out the other day and couldn't get it to ground balance. I'd do the ground grab thing and it wouldn't work. I'm getting a loud noise whenever the coil is near the ground and when I move it in any way. The ground balance...

    Headphones for the 1/4 jack

    Now that it's warming up some, I'm thinking that I'd like to take advantage of the Omega's 1/4 inch jack and use some light-weight, cooler, headphones. Any suggestions out there?

    Doing alright with the Omega!

    I've only had a couple of of opportunities to dig for an hour or so with my new Omega. I went to a site that I've dug for 10 years or so, as I don't have many other choices these days. In the past, I've hit the area with 2 well-regarded machines and sort of hit a wall. Today, though, I found...
