    Share V3 programs over the Phone.

    Your position and Lowjiber's are not mutually exclusive. The chip is indeed an RFIC chip from Cypress, which is frequently used as a building block RF chip for bluetooth applications. However, White's chose to not implement the bluetooth protocol stacks to avoid signal transport delays. So...

    3 Frequencies, Why Not 28?

    Ok, forget the Eniac. Substitute a Univac business computer or an entry level IBM 360 mainframe. A server class PC will outgun them at a fraction of the price. :throw: Carl, I am not really disagreeing with you. All I was trying to say is that the price needs to include (amortize) the...

    3 Frequencies, Why Not 28?

    Having just retired from the electronics industry a little while ago, I'll tell you that the above analysis is severely flawed. All you have to do is look at other "boxes" with heavy electronic content. For example, the ENIAC electronic computer, built in 1946 for calculating artillery-firing...

    Want more depth in relic mode? Use

    Monte, you are a Master Jedi in my book when it comes to detecting, but copyrights are best left to others that are skilled in that art. :laugh: As Intel found out to their chagrin when they tried to sue AMD for using 486 on their microprocessors a few years back. The courts ruled that you...

    TX Boost

    Thanks a lot Carl. I was trying to keep the analysis simple so I assumed it was anisotropic. Where I went wrong was in the amount of Boost. I understood it was 30% (not in manual), rather than 300%. Now I can see why the batteries really take a hit with boost on. :twodetecting:

    TX Boost

    1. The transmit signal from the detector excites the mineralization in the ground matrix as well as any conductive targets that may be present and they will respond with an opposing field proportionate to the energy they received from the transmitter. This is the signal the detector receives...

    To White's engineers..........Rumors persist........

    Many people are confused by what items a patent protects. That is because patents are written in a very unusual (for the laymen) style. Nothing is protected by the patent until you get to the Claims section. There you will find one or more claims, subvariant or subordinate claims and compound...

    VDI normalization?

    With the new frequencies used , does the Vision produce different VDI numbers, or is there VDI normalization software to produce a consistent VDI number that is the same across the other White's machines (ie. DFX/MXT/M6/XLT)? For non-ferrous targets, is the VDI reading the same regardless of...

    It Came As A Whisper & The Vdi Wouldn't Lock

    Had a chance to go out tot lot hunting last Sunday for a few hours. I went to a different area of the city hoping to find something as the areas that I usually hunt have not been very good lately. Well, let me tell you, the tot lots I went to had been pounded hard! Hardly any targets except for...

    Help ID Maritime Pin

    Found this pin last weekened at the local beach. It is some kind of maritime pin but I can't make out the writing. Does anyone know what this is or where it's from?

    Lust for gold satisfied ... for now

    I've been going crazy for the past several weeks. Lots of honeydoos have kept me from going hunting. Yesterday I went out and had nothing to show for my time except some clad. This morning, I headed out before the rain, figuring on getting some swinging time. My craving for gold was...

    Gold and diamnod(s) kind of day

    Went out this morning to hunt some previously unexplored (by me) school yards. The first two schools were locked up tight so I had to move on. At the next one, I found this girl's 14K soccer ball motiff ring. I haven't tested the stones yet. Could be diamonds or CZs. At the next school I...

    Just in time for Valentine's Day :cam:

    Found this little cupid angel at a park last Saturday. It's about as tall as a quarter and it's stamped 14K. Love that MXT. :whites:

    Man!! Pass the Nitro

    Got a soft mellow hit and dug down with my scoop. This bauble came up. It was paste. :(

    Question for you Surf Hunters

    I am curious, do you guys (and gals) tether your detector and or scoop to yourselves? Just wondering. I thought about doing this as I find it more convenient to use both hands when wrestling that monster scoop. If you do, how about some pictures showing how you did it.
