    V3i MXT emulaion program settings?

    Hey there. I have a V3 and have read that the V3i has an MXT emultion 'program'; would like (if such is the case) to enter the settings into my V3. Is there such a mode? I hesitate to upgrade to the V3i, since I've read that the ground tracking has been slowed down and the ground where I hunt...

    Problems with my AT Pro

    Well, I picked up a used AT Pro from another member on this forum and only recently got to do anything with it (illness). Well, the problem is, once it's been turned off and turned back on again, it loses it's settings and defaults to coin mode and full sensitivity. Did a factory reset and it...

    A question about V3 MF depth vs...

    Okay, here's what I'm trying to figure out. The multifrequency operation of the V3 (and BBS/FBS, CZ's) is supposed to enable better depth in bad ground.. am I right? Now, has anyone compared a decent PI (TDI, Minelab, Infinium) with the same sized DD coils to a V3, and what kind of difference...

    Garrett AT Pro coil problems..

    I just got my AT Pro and was informed (after I bought it) that the coil exhibited some problems. Anyway, I put the detector together, turned it on and, sure 'nuff, holding the coil up a bit and twisting it from side to side made the coil false like crazy! Oh noes! Well, I decided to try...

    By the skin of my teeth..

    Managed to get an AT Pro that was for sale on another major forum (initials would be T.T.D.), and do so by only 1 min! Early bird and the worm or what? So far it's been a mild but wet winter here (a beautiful brown X-mas) and bow that I've had my MRI & pin-test I'll have another 6 months till...

    Not a comparison, but a question about capability..

    I have a White's V3 and, having just aquired it, have yet to even use it. That being said, I was just on the (shhhh..) Garrett forum nad there's a YouTube vid. showing the new AT Pro and its' 'tone roll' feature. Can the V3 do the same? I ask because I plan to buy one, when they're finally for...

    Question about the password...

    I've got a bit of a problem here. Bought a used Vision (though the electronics say V3) and the password doesn't work! It's written in the back of the user manual, and a page with the password printed out was provided.. but still, presumably, the wrong password. Right now I'm waiting for the...

    New Garrett water machine...

    that's waterproof to 10' AND is a fully functioning land detector with VDI, notch, tones.. and a bunch of other stuff (plus it operates at 15 KHz). I hunt freshwater lakes (chest deep maximum) and this basically blows everything else out of the water. Hop on over to the Garrett forum to check it...

    Okay.. what's up with White's new M7?

    Popped over to the 'other' White's forum to reset my password 'n such and noticed that they have a new "MXT, M7, & M6" forum. Well, what's going on with the M7? We now have a forum that includes a detector that doesn't exist? Not likely, and if White's claims that there isn't such a detector...

    Is the disc. mode GB on a GMH III preset?

    I posted a little while ago regarding the GB in disc. mode of an original GMH and an answer kinda touched on the GMH III but... I'm wondering what the GMH III does in disc. mode? Does it track the ground? Initial GB which remains set thereafter? Preset (BOOO! HISSSS!)? The GTI/GTP detectors...

    Question about wireless repercussions

    Got to wondering a little while ago.. there was a study linking cell phone use to brain cancer; wireless headphones= cancer? Not being alarmist, just cautious. ..Willy.

    How close to an MXT can a V3 get?

    Performance-wise on small gold in very changeable, heavily mineralised ground? Yup, you can trot out all sorts of sensitivity-to-small-gold tests that show a V3 hitting on a tiny piece of gold held at x inches but, you know what.. stick that same bot 'o gold in/on some bad ground (MXT VDI 86-88)...

    F70 refuses to GB

    I picked up a used F70 a little while ago and just recently got to test it out (rear end blew in my truck and kept me occupied for a bit). Tried it up in the Okanagan before taking off back to Abbotsford and noticed that it would just read 99 when GB'ing and never DID GB. Thought I'd figure it...

    WOW! Who-da thunk it?

    I picked up a GMH (the first model) for my buddy Cliff (if he's still alive) and was doing some air testing with it. A bit of a hassle because it didn't have a battery holder so I used a low voltage regulated 9v camera power supply to power it up. Anyway, air testing, I took my 1 grain test...

    Coil interchangeability between different models (GMH and..)?

    Just wondering about what coils work, or can be made to work, on a GMH/GMH3. How 'bout the Ace 150/250 series? I don't mind doing a bit of soldering. ..Willy.

    GMH III question

    I have an original GMH and have a GMH III coming soon and have a question regarding the ground balance in disc. mode. Now, I've read a number of posts claiming that the GB is a preset in disc. Well, reading through the manual, I came across a statement that seems to contradict this. Here it is...

    Anyone have a spare battery holder for a GMH?

    I just got my used Grand Master Hunter and now need a 6c battery holder for it. Called Garrett and I'm looking at near $30 for one!! Hell, I bought the detector for only $130. Might have to rig up something myself. ..Willy.

    Grand Master Hunter questions..

    I'll be getting an early (1988) GMH for my buddy Cliff (hopefully he'll like it; he found the Ace 250 to be too complicated) but it doesn't have a battery holder.. anyone know where I can get one? Also, I'm wondering what coils can directly attach to it and which ones can be used after changing...

    Ace 250 internal adjustments.. think again

    I picked up an Ace 250 for my buddy Cliff and, because he thinks it's way to complicated, I ended up with it. Anyway, whilst hunting yesterday, I noticed that the PP AM mode was set wayyyy to negative for my ground. This got me to thinking. Previous posts stated that there were no internal...

    Coil problem

    I have a little problem here. Picked up a used 14" Excellerator II coil a number of months ago (for water hunting) and it worked great.. at first. Now, for some reason, all it does is overload when the sensitivity is set past 2 (used to be able to max it), and can barely see a copper penny at 2"...
