    Simplex gold

    Yesterday was at a saltwater beach and got a signal with a reading of 19. Signal was strong, visual readout steady on 19. Up came a 21k god ring with a thin band...weighed in at 1.69 gm, but the amount of gold is less than that because it has an emerald stone with 2 small diamonds....sorry, no...

    Kruzer coils...compatible with Racers?

    Hi, I have a couple of questions that I hope members or Makro can help me with, involving the new Kruzer. I am interested in the Kruzer 14 kHz model. First question is: Are the Racer coils able to be used on the Kruzer. Second question: Is the 11" x 7" dd coil which is standard on the...

    getting back in the saddle

    Hi All. I've been away for quite a while now....have sold and bought houses.Moved to a totally new location in a new State (from NSW to Queensland, Australia), and am settling in for a quite new detecting experience. New places to find, new things to find. Have missed my times on the forum...

    Update on Ground Balancing

    Thank you again to Strollmasta, pasttom, tvr and Tony for your suggestions. I tried the settings that you recommended, and still no threshold hum, dead silent. On the plus side, I tried (again) to balance in pinpoint mode, and in the soil here i was able to actually ground balance the machine...

    New CZ 21...No threshhold...any suggestions

    I dont live near a saltwater beach, so last week I made a trek to one of the closer ones...took (amongst others) my recently acquired new CZ 21, which I hadn't used before....I had done a perfunctory test and it registered on coins ok, so I presumed all was well. Studied the manual on ground...

    Silver rings with Omega

    Hi All, The Omega is continuing its run with rings this year....so far, no more gold, but a few more silver. The larger ring was found with my Golden U max, but the other two with the Omega. The dime is just there for size comparison, although yesterday I did find two dimes and a nickle, which...

    Out again with the Omega today

    Today (January 30) I took the Omega to yet another spot that I (and lots of others, of course) go to. Spent about 2 hours there and collected a few coins including a 1963 sixpence (50% silver)...it was about 4 inches down, and I have cleaned it up for the purposes of the photo. Just to let you...

    More stuff with the Omega

    Took the Omega out again yesterday (January 29)...In the morning went to a place where I have previously found pre decimal coins (Australian), although I wasn't particularly going after them yesterday. Did not find a lot of coins, but managed to find a 1950 shilling and a 1950 halfpenny, both...

    A couple of recent finds - Omega

    Here's an offering from down under, where it's warmer (been regularly 100 F or more the last couple of weeks). These two, one silver and one 9ct (9k) gold were found at the same location, same day, but the silver in the morning and the gold in the afternoon. The gold ring came in at a solid 60...

    Eurotek Pro with 5" DD coil

    Hi All, I took the ET Pro out today with the 5" DD coil attached. Same area I have taken it to before when I made my prior posts. I wasn't sure what to expect...I reduced the sensitivity to 6, but ran the disc on zero. Hunted for about 2 and a quarter hours....found 43 coins, 30 of them were...

    braved the weather to try out the eurotek pro

    Hi all, Despite the weather and the forecast, I took the eurotek pro to a small town about 30 miles from where I live...I was actually born and bred in this small town. There is a showground there that has been in use for years, long before I was born (and bred). I recall playing football and...

    Oh Joy! Oh Boy!

    New Eurotek Pro (aka Austek) arrived today. I think it must have come by rowboat (and I am not being critical of anyone, I know these overseas orders take time). Haven't had time to assemble it yet, but it looks great, not only for detecting, but also for packing if I want to take it in a carry...

    Had to return "my" Outlaw

    The Outlaw that I have been using was loaned to me by Paul Knee, the Australian importer and distributor for Tesoro. Paul kindly allowed me to hang onto it for some time, and I appreciate the fact that he didn't put me under any pressure to return it to him. I have to say that the Outlaw was a...

    Took the Outlaw Out

    Went to a small park in a small village about a half hours drive from where I live. I was hunting for our (Australian) pre-decminal coins which have not been around since 1968, and were made of silver and copper. I decided to try the Outlaw with with 12 x 10 DD coil. It did well, finding a...

    Omega 8000 and silver chains

    In the (almost) 3 years I have been using the Omega, I have found more silver chains and bracelets with it than I have done with any other detector I have (or had). A couple of these chains/bracelets have had small charms or a pendant attached, but the majority have not. These chains have come...

    F5 and concentric coil

    I live in Australia, and ordered a concentric coil for my F5 11 months ago....after me phoning the dealer here several times over the last 11 months, I finally received a message from him on my message bank that there is no concentric coil for the F5. I know that his information contradicts the...
