    Still liking the Freedom Ace Plus

    I read alot of posts about Garrett's newer models, and thats good stuff, but to those who may not can afford a high-end machine, I'd like to say that if you want a fantastic, dependable, solid and deep machine, keep you eyes out for a Freedom Ace model. I bought a used one some time back for...

    I turned -down a job promotion

    Is this normal? I am very happy doing what I do, and refused a "chief's" job. It would have meant more money, but I didn't want the extra responsibility and headache. I enjoy simplicity.

    Fun afternoon relic hunting

    A friend and I went digging at the site of a large CW encampment this afternoon, and it has been hunted to death over the years. It is in the woods, and the timber was recently thinned-out, so we were able to get the coils where we never could before. Log "drag-paths" and dozed trails really...

    To those who drink diet drinks....

    I suggest you read-up on the possible effects caused by "aspartame". My wife is diabetic, so we started buying diet sodas years ago, and I just learned to like them, so we wouldn't have to buy both kinds. I drink too many soft drinks anyway. Since switching to diet drinks years ago, I have been...

    Idea for temporary coil cover?

    Just wondering...I have a spool of that shrink-wrap stuff for pallet shipping, and figure that for hunting in woods or where there is alot of stubbles to hang the T2 coil on, why not wrap the entire coil a few times with the wrap? The stuff is cheap, and it's easy to put on and remove. I intend...

    Couple of T2 finds today

    I went back to a place that I've hunted "to death", and found an indian head penny(rough shape), and a neat 1924 Virginia Fox Hound tag. I have yet to get "skunked" with the T2 at this place, even though I got skunked there with many other machines. LOTS of trash to deal with though. The T2...

    Anybody have a "guestimated" turnaround time?

    Kinda funny

    I was in a pawn shop the other day, and noticed a Radio Shack BH detector in the corner, and it had what looked to be a 6" coil on it. Out of curiosity, I asked the guy how much it was, and he said it was his personal machine, and wasn't for sale. So we started talking about digging, and he told...

    Sent my Nautilus DMC II in

    :I picked-up a Nauty last Saturday, and it has the old U-shaped handle on it, which likely would wear me out after a short time of using it. Seems to work great, though. I am planning to get them to put the S-shaft on it to make swinging it alot easier. This machine should go pretty deep with...

    T2 Finds from today

    I took the T out to one of my spots today, and found an 1854 large cent, a bullet that had been cut in half, a buckle that is probably from the teens(not a war item), and a few other items. Also found a wheat. I need to increase the sensitivity next time, though. Overwhelmed with beeps and...

    Nice Button found with T2

    Well, today was the 2nd time out relic hunting with the T2, and I had hunted in all-metal mode without much luck, so I switched to disc. and had sens. on 65. I didn't walk 4 feet and got this solid "72" approx. 9 inches deep. It was this Eagle "I" button, with alot of guild still on it. My...

    Battery Tender Jr. and battery life

    I bought my Excal used a couple years back, and it has been a great machine, with no problems. I read so much about the BT jr, that I got one a while back. I have probably charged with it maybe 8 times since getting it, but I don't seem to get but maybe 3 hours or so hunting time from a charge...

    What do do about an "obsessive" detector buyer

    I bought a 6000 di Pro SL a while back, and didn't even remember making a post here about it "falsing" when I first turned it on, and I came on here asking about the issue. Well, I had it on the wrong setting for one thing, but it has worked perfectly ever since, and I even made some posts here...

    Finally took the T2 out relic hunting

    I took the T2 to a cavalry encampment site that I had pretty much "hunted-out" over the years, so I didn't expect to find much, but I wanted to see that the T would do. There were powerlines over some of the site, and a live electric fence around the pasture where I hunted. Sure, I had some...

    Settings knob on T2

    I just noticed that my T2's settings knob is "spring loaded', and seems to have some sort of function when you push it in, but the owner's manual doesn't make any kind of reference to a "push" function on that knob. I was just curious about it. Anybody know? Thanks.

    T-2 for salt beaches(dry sand)?

    I'm getting ready to go to the beach, and I'm taking an Excal for the wet sand, but I want to take the T-2 for deep dry sand digging. Just wondering if any of y'all have used one for that. I had thought about taking my White's 6000 Pro SL, but perhaps the T-2 would be better. I know it's...

    Major price differences on T2's

    How can someone sell a new T2 with 6.5 softwear for 650.00? Most T2's go alot higher. Just curious. I have been looking for a good used one, but found a new one cheaper than most used ones. I'm expecting to be very happy or let-down.

    Thinking about an F75

    I know of a few folks around where I live that use the F75, and they find alot of good relics. I like the features of this model, and with health issues, light-weight is a major plus. But I cannot seem to find the weight of the F75 anywhere on Fisher's website. Perhaps one of y'all know. I am...
