    What is this?

    Found this brass piece in a historical site. The place that started the Mexican war. It was on top of a heap of ashes mixed with some other iron pieces. I happened to see it, picked up and cleaned it. I guess it is a part of a rifle. Any help, please.

    Is this a fossilized egg or fruit?

    I found this fossilized egg in the banks from a river in my father's ranch. I dislodged it from the wall of the river like 2 feets from the surface. The ranch is in Villas de Santiago in the state of Nuevo Leon, Mexico. There were no other rocks like these one. There were a bunch of shaped like...

    Please help!!

    Can I use an universal charger to charge my excal, and if so, how many output volts I need to charge it the correct way? The guy who sold the detector to me sent out a charger that does not fit but has an output of 15 volts, so now I'm more confused. The excal is the 1000 one. Thanks a lot for...

    Can anyone give me a good explanation on how to GB the Omega in the most simple words. Sometimes, you guys use too many technical words only known by professional metal detectorists. I recently bought the Omega and I think it is a great machinne but even reading the manual is kind of...

    At mode on omega question?

    What are the differences or the advantages of using the at mode vs the all metal mode? By that I mean just passing the At mode knob, which is the lowest range I think of 1 in the discriminate mode. Thank you and regards.

    New to O8, now what?

    I have close to 6 years in MD and I just bought the O8, I think it is a great machine due to the bench tests I did yesterday in my house. I was amazed that in the air the constant numbers don't seem to change at all even putting the coin on edge. Also the quick response and that it sounds with...

    upgrading with an Omega 8000! new member on this forum

    I just bought a new Omega 8000, I had as my main machine an Ace 250. What do you think guys? I used to love my ace 250 but the recovery speed was too slow for me. Anyways, I know the Ace 250 with respect to depth with the 9 x 12 coil will compete with lots of 1000 dlls machines. However, I'm...

    Will the omega 8000 discriminate steel or tin old coke bottle caps?

    The reason I'm asking is because I'm planning to buy an omega. I know of a place that is contaminated with old rusted tin coke bottle caps and my ace registers them as coins. I guess this has to do with their rounded shape, I saw the impressive you tube videos where the coin is placed under lots...

    :surprised:Air test result "share some of your results"

    I did an air test with my ace 250 with the 9 x 12 and the reults were impressive. No wonder why the ace rules! The results were done in all metal with one bar left empty on sensitivity. If you guys want to do a similar test with your own prefered machine please share. Quarter: 8 to 9 inches...
