    Indian Head Pennies

    Thanks, Neil. You are correct.... mine is a "fatty". Do the newer ones still respond to 7.5k the best?

    Indian Head Pennies

    I never dig the zinc penny signals, but given that they traditionally "ring" like Indian head pennies - I went back to a local park where a club member scattered some Indian heads yesterday. I came home with a pocket full of clad. So when I got home, I analyzed my one and only Indian head...

    Sent the Vision in for the V3i Upgrade Yesterday

    I sent my detector to Sweet Home yesterday for the V3i upgrade. I did not like shipping my detector, but it's the only way I'm going to be able to get the upgrade in time to detect all Fall - while the weather's cooler. I bought the Vision at the treasure show in Longview last year and it has...

    V3i

    I understand the frustration expressed by early V owners. Having said that, I agree with RacerX. I too am happy that White's created the V to be a software upgradable machine. White's is a business and we all need to understand that they have to be profitable, not greedy - just profitable...

    RX Sensitivity and Probe

    I have an after-market pinpointer installed on the Vision and this causes the % shown on the probe screen to increase be 10% regardless of location. What implications will this have on the detector's performance? P.S. I can turn the RX Gain up several points higher than what the probe screen...

    Is the circuitry of the 6000 SL the same as the XL Pro?

    Is the circuitry of the 6000 SL the same as the XL Pro? Should one expect the same performance from these two machines, excluding the difference in batteries? Thank you, Wes

    Vision is E Z-er to operate then the DFX. Pole

    The menu system, screen, and controls make the V much easier to configure than the DFX. In the filed, switching between programs and changing settings is also much easier... due to the live controls. The audio responses seem very similar to the DFX, but there's so much visual information on...

    nickels and the V3

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel_(United_States_coin) Metal value As of December 14, 2006, the value of the metal in a United States nickel coin reached $0.055759, an 11.5% premium over its face value.[6] This was due to the rising price of copper and nickel and the decline in value of the...

    nickels and the V3

    My nickel count is still way above average. Others local V3 owners have agreed. The V3 is a nickel monster!

    Does this happen to you?

    I can hear my detector's threshold when I'm not moving the coil. When I swing the coil, I can hear the threshold "null" when the detector discriminates the object under the coil. I know that's what I am hearing because I can watch the spectragraph produce red bars on all three frequencies. I...

    Vision and Explorer II Report Comparison

    The documents above are actual hunt results. Most of the locations are the same and the soil conditions were exactly the same between days...dry. I used the Explorer during the 2/3 - 3/15 time frame and the Vision during the 3/25 - 4/13 time frame. I sold the Explorer, so I won't have any...

    Explorer II and V3... Personal Preference

    My experience with the DFX was the same. I prefer the Vision to any other detector I've used. The only nice deep find I've come across so far was a silver quarter at 7-8 inches . The only other silver I've found is a Merc at about 4inches. I only have about 40 hours on the Vision so far...

    Explorer II and V3... Personal Preference

    I went to a favorite location today and searched for about 15 minutes with the Explorer II. I have become so accustomed to the Vision/V3 that I am not nearly as proficient with the Explorer II as I was before spending so much time on the V3. The Explorer is a great machine, but I'm having so...

    Headphones

    The audio signal provides just as much info as the video on the Vision... And more on most other machines. Headphones alllow you to hear the subtle differences in tones, which once learned, will allow you to identify the target before you dig.
