    Interesting facts about Standard mode.........

    More and more I find myself switching to standard mode after getting a weak, deep iffy signal in pro mode. Depth and sensitivity in standard mode seems to closely match pro mode, with the added benefit of the full-blown analog signal, plus the bell tone which I dearly love. Those weak pro...

    2500 problems

    I've had my GTI 2500 for almost a year, and about a month ago it started acting weird when I try to pinpoint. As the coil passes over the target, there is an electronic clicking noise, then the detector goes silent over the target, then gets loud after passing the target. It's very much like...

    John-Edmonton rings

    John, while searching the archives, I came across some of your hand-made rings from March, 2008. Could you please give a short tutorial on how to make these beautiful rings? Thanks. Jugghead

    Night Lights

    It seems that many people on this forum hunt at night. What I'm curious about is what kinds of lights are being used? Headlamps, flashlights? Is a flood better than a spot? Sounds intriguing, but lighting would appear to be crucial. Jugghead

    Environmental cover for 2500

    After using my GTI2500 a short while, I bought the rain cover, just in the off-chance of being caught in a downpour. Then I started using it to keep dirt out of the push- buttons. Hot weather finally arrived here in NC, and the best use for the cover so far has been to keep sweat off of the...

    2500 zero discriminate works great!

    I've been using my 2500 only since December, so I'm obviously not an expert, but I've noticed that in the coin mode, detector recovery-time is a little slow. After digging everything showing up as coins, I'll go back over the same area in zero discriminate mode, which seems to recover much...

    Garrett comparison......

    I've used Garrett detectors since 1969, beginning with the Hunter, and with only a few early exceptions, have remained faithful. I now own an ADS 7, Ace 250 and GTI 2500. Just yesterday, my finds included a V nickel, an Indian head cent, six wheaties, and two current pennies in a neighbors'...

    Uncle Willy, would you please explain to me the meaning and purpose of "jiggling" the coil, and exactly how to do it? Thanks. Jugg

    Pinpointing: 2500 vs ADS 7

    I've been monitoring this site for quite a while, but didn't feel like I could contribute anything worthwhile. I've used Garrett detectors almost exclusively since 1969 and have used many different Garretts, beginning with the Master Hunter BFO, and finally decided to try some of the newer...
