    Update on the xp deus 2

    I am staying on 1.1 too since the 2.0 primarily add the deep coil set. Not enough change for me to need to update. I am very happy with 1.1.

    Best repair for the remote clip on the shaft

    I broke mine a few weeks ago and attempted epoxy was OK while waiting on my new one. I broke mine by being dumb when leaving it mounted on the shaft when I put it my Ridgeline bed storage area and the lid hit it just right, I bought a pair of them in case I get dumb again.

    Pulled the trigger on a XP Deus 2

    I bought my DEUS 2 11 months ago after using a Minelab for the last 15 years. The DEUS 21 is a great machine once you get used to it. In the woods I use General with my tweaks and Silver Slayer (which is great even relic hunting in high iron, but it will kill your coil battery). On the beach I...

    Are either of XP's backpacks any good?

    I bought a 240 when I bought my Deus II and it works well. I use it in my vehicle to keep everything together so I can grab it and get everything in one bag when I hunt with someone else.

    WS6 screen smear

    I immediately put Z A G G invisible screen protector on my WS6 to prevent scratches. It has worked well for the last 8 months of hard hunting in the woods and on the beach.

    Some Cold Weather Finds - Barber Half and Other Big Silver

    Yes, that was what I was saying. The Equinox processor is so much faster and the recover is fast enough that I am rehunting areas that had been hunted by me and others with E-Tracs to find more silver at home in town. I am hunting in heavily mineralized and iron on farm areas of South Carolina...

    Some Cold Weather Finds - Barber Half and Other Big Silver

    You are always producing! 283 is a lot of silver (122 was my best ever 9 years ago). Finds like that is why I will never get rid of my E_Trac, but the ground where I hunt now is too difficult for the E-Trac. I hope it thaws soon for you!

    Saw The Big Barber and Took Another Walk

    Those were great hunt and exceptional finds! The E-Trac is still a great machine that can sniff out the silver. I will never get rid of my E-Trac. I now hunt with an Equinox 800 that can sniff out silver that the E-Trac couldn't see but I miss the fluty tones of the E-Trac.

    1893 Barber Quarter / Barber Dimes / Merchant Tokens / Very Old Skeleton Key / Silver Jewelry

    What I mean is that you know your machine and always to find great targets when hunting.

    1893 Barber Quarter / Barber Dimes / Merchant Tokens / Very Old Skeleton Key / Silver Jewelry

    I haven't been able to be here in awhile, but I show up and you are still wearing it out with your E-Trac. My E-Trac has been parked since I got my Equinox 800 that has sniffing out good stuff behind my E-Trac.

    Equinox 800 has truly retired my E-Trac to back up duty only

    I have been enjoying my Equinox since I got it and love the speed of the processor over the E-Trac. I haven't touched my E-Trac since I started hunting with the Equinox and now will just leave it for backup only. The Equinox has been good on the beach and in the red clay I mostly hunt in. I...

    My Etrac has served me well

    I have been hunting with my ETrac for nearly 11 years now and it is a wonderful machine, but I had to move forward. I took it out in the dry dirt and got a couple of wheaties (25,28) this past weekend after I ordered my Equinox. My Equinox 800 was delivered Monday and I can't wait to get it...

    Oldest Silver coin to date...and it's Russian

    I found this 1861 .750 silver 15 Kopeck Russian coin (Minted from 1860-1866) in a local fairgrounds Friday morning while I was waiting on some buddies to show up. We have pulled about 35 silver coins from this space since December. It came up as a repeatable 12-41 at 3-4 inches and I was...

    First Gold with my E-Trac in 4.5 years of hunting

    My gold drought is finally over!!! The last gold I found was a wedding band 5 years ago. A hunting buddy (Mangum on Treasurenet) asked me to hunt a yard with him today since we were going to be in Charlotte anyway buying silver for our upcoming club hunt. This was a recently foreclosed home...

    Had an interesting day...silver and Civil War (in town)

    Our metal detecting club lost its meeting place because the facility was sold, so we had to find another one for next month's meeting. Well, we found a great building for our 60+ member club to meet at a Catholic affiliated facility that has multiple buildings including three older homes. I...

    5x10" 18.75 kHz coil question

    I am looking at purchasing a 5x10" 18.75 kHz coil for my XTerra 70 and was wanting opinions from people familiar with the combination on the strengths/weaknesses of this setup. I have signed up to go to England with a friend and was going to take my XTerra 70 with this coil as a backup to my...

    Found my first Eagle button, has a lot of gilt left

    I got to hunt with some friends yesterday at a home one of them has been hunting for some while. This home was built in 1885 and is the 3rd home on the same site. My friends have made some nice finds before I got there (flying eagle cent, shield nickel, many Indians including a fatty, several...

    I finally found an Indian head penny!! It has only been 4.5 years since I found my first one (this is number two. Also found a 1944P nickel, 4 Wheaties from the teens and twenties, and a copper flat button. I was hunting at an 1805 home in the middle of my town yesterday and today that has...
