    Beach Wet & Park Setting

    Saw a quick video about BW mode working well at allowing coin signals to pop through surrounding can slaw and aluminum trash. Anyone have experience with this? I have a couple of nearby sites that are both littered with can slaw to the point that it's just about the only thing I detect, would...

    1.08 Stability Setting

    So I have watched most of the 1.80/1.08 videos on youtube and listened to Dilek's video and about the only thing I can tell is that the setting is only active when you choose an IF of other than the stock 8, and that it's meant to "fine tune" the IF settings. So how does this work? Whats the...

    Simplex+ Sucessor?

    So I have been on a 5+ year break from detecting and i'm looking to get back into things. My old detector is a White's V3i with a million accessories. I wanted something more turn-on and go, and I also periodically considered buying a water detector, so this seems like I good choice (my other...

    Oldest silver find yet

    Found this behind a local school that has been hit hard for years, nothing else was found except for a few clad coins and lots of trash. While 20th century silver tends to come out of the ground looking brand new around here, older silver always seems to get chewed up. Don't know why that is...

    Last years neat finds.

    I didn't have the chance to get out much last year, but I did find a couple of neat items I wanted to share. Most of the items I don't know anything about. Theres a half cent (can't read the date). An interesting token. A Heads I win, Tales you lose coin, and two military buttons. If you can...

    Info about bluetooth data capabilities

    It has been a long time since the discussions concerning the dongle usb adapter to allow for transfer of saved programs (I understand that is a dead project). Originally I had intended to write a program to allow for visualization of program settings and quick adjustment (I.E. my new coil IDs...

    Interesting Observation for 12x15 Coil

    I have posted my impressions of the 12x15 before, basically it boils down to the thing being crazy sensitive to EMI. But if you take it out into a field or big park you can run it hot enough to go deep. Well, today I went to a school and forgot my backup coil. Try as i might I couldn't calm the...

    Why mixed mode audio?

    Seems that lots of folks in the forum like to detect in mixed mode. I tried it for a couple of outings, then realized that it didn't seem to add to my type of detecting (mostly coin shooting). Why use mixed mode, unless you are specifically targetting iron artifacts? And if you are, why bother...

    Quick review of the new 12x15 (white) SEF Coil *With 2 Firsts*

    So last weekend I received my new 12x15 in the mail, but until today I did not have a chance to take it out for a spin. I did turn on my machine and run around the yard a bit, however I found the coil to be very EMI sensative (at least in my yard) and as such was not able to do much testing...

    V-Rated SEF Coils

    My buddy has been having pretty decent success with the 10x12 SEF coil for his V3i despite the fact that it is not made for the v series of detectors (he can run 10x70x92 as his default setting in best data). Today I checked the U.S. distributers website and noticed the white version "For...

    How do *you* make the decision to dig a "ring"?

    I know this has been covered before. The last time I read anything about it was more than a year ago and I am hoping more people and more experience may lend to some better answers. So I have been a V3 owner since near the beginning, but despite going on pull tab rampages I have still dug very...

    First 1800s Silver For Me

    I like to complain to my hunting buddies that I have never pulled a Barber anything out of the ground. I guess thats still true, since I overshot it with this coin. Went to do a ring recovery but found that the beach had been pretty thoroughly hunted before we showed up, so after an hour of...

    Day 2 of 2012, and I positively stomped day 1.

    A couple of days ago I finally made it out for the first time this year. Despite visiting a well worked over park, I did fairly good and pulled in several silver coins ( 1st day post ). Today I went back to that same park and spent another 3 hours trying to find the deep signals with Hi-Pro and...

    First outing for 2012, things are looking up this year.

    Even though there was virtually no snow this winter, I really never got the chance to get out and detect. Spurred on by a friends recent acquisition of the 12" SEF (on a V3i), and his bragging about finding several war nickels in a well hunted park, I decided to give the place another look. It...

    Wringing truth from Ring threads...

    I know there have been several threads about gold, and jewelry in general (including that epic thread several months back with the photos of ring analyze screens), but I was hoping to get a good thread going concerning the sound / feel of a good ring target. I noticed while reading through the...

    Finally got that 6x10 DD

    I have been waiting pretty much since the day I bought my V3 to pick up this coil since everyone keeps saying it is great for the type of hunting I do (coin & jewelry at parks / schools). I kept hoping that it would show up in one of those special deals White's occasionally runs, but it never...

    Deep Silver Program

    Does anyone here hunt their V3's in the deep silver profile? I was at an old school yesterday and after a friend hit a silver rosie I switched over to DS to give it a try. I did in fact hit two rosie's myself afterwards, but I don't know if I would have hit them in coin or coin & jewelry...

    First impressions with my V3

    Made it out for the first time today with the V3. Took it to the park next to my house since it was already getting late (5:30pm) and overcast. This park is a triple threat in that it has crazy emi from overhead power lines and stadium lights (Had to use my 5.3 coil here with the DFX, the...

    V3 Coil, 950 or Super 12?

    So, my V3 came in the mail today (as did my white's coupon pack) and I will be able to take it out for the first time on Friday. I had a DFX 300 previously, and I always felt that the Super 12 that came with it was a bit too EMI sensative. The Whites coupon pack has a %60 off deal on a couple...
