    suggestions for fixing the ear on my coil/loop?

    broke the right ear on my 17 inch coil on the CTX. My plan right now is to cut some plastic and fit it to the ear and to the coil with a bend or tab then glue it with JB weld. If you have suggestions please let me know right away as i want to get back out soon with it. Thank you. shov.

    Broken ear on 17 inch coil any suggestions to fix?.

    I got back in from detecting yesterday and I see the right ear of my 17 inch coil has broken. I dont think it's from a hard knock but probably from many small knocks over time. I'm planning to fix this with JB weld and some home made ears cut from similar plastics and joined together on the...

    Silver Dollar find...in somebody's dig pile

    I just have to brag about this; Friday I found an 1888 Silver Morgan 4 inches down in the dig pile of another digger. Granted there are lots of iron and brass signals where it came from but I can only imagine that someone else is using an E trac or 3030 and does not know they have to open up...

    3030 finds a 1914 D Merc.

    I took time a few weeks ago to go through my finds from this summer and started searching the mercs...I had to look 6 or seven times before I started asking everyone with good eyes if they could see a D as I could not believe it. Ive been hunting for many years but did not ever expect to...

    Pitch hold Gold

    Ive been tying to sniff out a few keepers from one of my oldest and worn out hunting spots and started trying a few different setups on the CTX to see how she might gain some edge for me. This particular spot is littered with iron and trash down 2 feet or more and has mineralized sand and salt...

    What are your silver dollars comming in at.?

    Im doing some scanning and surprisingly my silver dollars come in under 1 40. in fact 1 38. I know the numbers change a bit but it seams in conductive that everything is a bit lower than the E trac was. Is there a simple change without going to ferrous that will push these numbers up?

    Gold cash in for scrap or try to sell jewlery?

    Im wondering what your opinions are for maximizing dollars with found gold rings and jewelry? I have a hard time scraping out rings that were made so well as it has to be worth more than the gold content alone. On the other hand, Ive had a gold cross for sale for some time and I seem to...

    Hey all, I have a favorite pair of Grey Ghost headphones that I want to run on the 3030. As you probably already know the jack for them is such that it will allow the outside speaker to work and the head phones at the same time. I do not want to purchase another set of headphones and do not...
