    See through.....nonsense

    The term "See through" in relation to 'seeing through iron', should be banned from metal detecting vocabulary. There is no induction balanced metal detector made, with such a capability. The correct term where applicable, is to DIFFERENTIATE, referring to 'spatial separation differentiation'...

    Off shore shells

    Hello guys. A lovely day here today in England, almost feels like Spring ! I went to our local beach, and decided to walk a mile off-shore in the sunshine. Out there I located a spot where the armed forces did their live firing (1941-43), Spitfires and Hurricanes of world war II also used the...

    "Come on Minelab-USA"...You don't need to tout for stories.

    'Hello there,' Minelab USA customer relations. Why send out e-mails for club stories etc. when for some strange reason you're failing to 'read the mail' on this sizzling forum. It's populated with guys who by enthusiasm and good detecting with their E-Tracs, generate all you need. How about...

    To all doubting Thomas's....You're not reading the 'mail'

    " Hi there ! " After reading the general level of comments in the previous thread....SWEEP SPEED AND FALSING, it appears to me that there's quite a few of the contributors who have not yet fully understood the principles behind TTF usage. I've preached and used the method from day one. Why...

    Cold comfort

    [attachment 179917 P1050515_4.JPG] It's a damp, cold evening here in the UK and I'm just browsing some of my summer photos taken whilst out detecting with the V3. The attached picture was taken by me when I needed to hide from the mid-day sun. It was just too hot to detect. A boring scene...

    Too hot for a cool lady.........even the V3i...........

    It's 3pm in the afternoon, and I wanted to do some experimental testing on my Spectra in the garden, but damn me if it isn't TOO hot. Even Miranda is feeling the heat as she shelters amongst the blue-bells and rose bushes. The green house is more like a sauna with the old nuclear sub missile...

    To Eric....A question re. target time constants.

    To Cal Cobra.....Soil and Racer's TID problems......TheMarshall

    [b]Hi There. Cal. I'm just trying to untangle the debate regarding Racer's TID problems, from the original V3- F75 post. I may be wrong in assuming the quote below belongs to your good self. My apologies if I'm mistaken. Bold statements for someone who probably hasn't a clue as to the...

    Phase angles and all that jazz...........TheMarshall

    Hi there folks.....I've been reading the opinions posted regarding phase angles etc., and what they are supposed to indicate. May I add my two cents worth to the debate. I think I can safely say, that presently such phase indicators, be they in 'degrees' format or 'digitised numerics', are...

    V3 in dry sand..........A 'ripper'.

    [b]My mate and I have been delving into the handbook and tuning up the Whites V3, so yesterday evening it was time to take it for a serious walk-about. The manual has a need for improvement.................. Apart from the obvious appetite for particular crown-caps, it devoured any of the lost...

    E-Trac and GARRETT do the business........TheMarshall

    Last Sunday was a beautiful Spring day here in the UK. Here was a typical but more 'difficult' E-Trac target. A Victorian half penny at about 9 inches, but situated vertically at the side of the hole. The E-Trac had no problems alerting me to this one, even whilst running in AUTO sense...

    Candy's 'Vacuum Cleaner' sucks.......TheMarshall

    Had a couple of hours detecting today in a very boggy field. The soil stuck to my wellies, spade and gloves....you know what I mean... The E-Trac complained as I waded through the pools of water and thick winter grass. Iron.... spiky, wet and rusted, made its presence audibly felt as I upped...

    E-Trac extracts despite the cold ground and weather....TheMarshall

    Hello to all the lads over there in the USA, who are frozen in by the cold spell. Here's a shot of our club rally, taken a couple of weeks ago. Don't be deceived by the sunny aspect, for there was a chill factor of -3 C, and we had to wrap up well. The ground was frozen in places to a depth of...
