    CTX 3030 Handgrip

    Has anyone noticed that it is made out of smooth plastic? Not picking on Minelab, but that seems to be the worst way to make a grip. Hands sweat profusely when detecting. The unit is waterproof to 10 feet and perhaps the grip is designed to accomodate the waterproof seal. But in my opinion, the...

    Monte & Me

    Monte stopped by in Idaho on his way to Utah. We went detecting. He is as nice in person as online. I learned a few things to.

    Larry IL had to close a thread

    Guvner was kind enough to let detector comparisons be done. Now Larry IL had to close his thread because it was getting out of hand. Forum members, please don't kill this opportunity by posting inflammatory posts. I am not laying blame on anyone. If someone rubs you the wrong way here, just let...

    Warranty...and after it expires

    2 yrs is not that long. Unless your calculating in dog years. So what are the cost of out of warranty repairs going to be on the Deus in the U.S. Not saying this will be the case, but I sold and set up service calls for alot of european mfg'd equipment. It was considerably more costly component...

    It's always nice to help

    Last year, arrived at a park. Saw 6 young men with a detector that looked like it couldn't find a Cadillac buried at 3 inches. 20 mins later, one of them came up, asked me if I had a good detector. Long story short, one of them was a newlywed and had lost his titanium wedding band the day before...

    Omega..5" DD coil...and nasty bottlecaps tutorial

    Decided to do a little bench testing. Used a clad dime and a flattened/slightly rusted Bud Light bottlecap. These, like Corona beer caps are notorious for ID'ing as dimes/quarters. This technique uses the heel edge (not the toe edge) to identify the pesky buggers. IMHO the toe edge of the First...

    Omega Disc Question for Dave J,

    Dave, with many machines as the discrimination is increased there is a corresponding loss of depth (to varying degrees, amongst different units). Lets theoretically assume that the soil is of moderate/high mineralization/magnetite levels. Nothing severe about the soil. Ques #1 - Does the Omega...

    Omega.....gold nugget /placer gold / black sand...how does it perform?

    Would appreciate anyone's experience/opinions of the Omega in the post's title categories. Especially depth of nuggets and their weight along with coil size used. What settings used that proved most effective/useful eg. discrimination, if any? Thank you

    Detector Service @ First Texas

    Sent my T2 to First Texas for examination. Felt there were issues with the unit. First, I want to say thanks to Felix. He did me a big favor (won't say what it was, as I don't think FT wants to do this as a standard practice). First Texas was under no warranty obligation to do this for me. Then...

    WHY YOU MUST BUY A T2 FROM FACTORY AUTHORIZED DEALERS:thumbup:

    We all want to buy our detectors for the lowest price possible. That is a normal buying habit. But do be aware that if you are planning on buying a T2 detector or any First Texas manufactured detector you need to purchase it from one of their authorized dealers. Why????........ Because if you...

    T2 version 6.5 software..What it really does.

    Hello Everyone, My first post and I want to thank EVERYONE who takes their time to share their knowledge to help others get the most out of their machines. So I want to try and help out too. There seems to be confusion as to what this software update does. So I called First Texas today. I will...
