    Equinox 900 Question

    Should I be able to change which frequency is used in Beach mode? I am able to change it in all other modes except Beach 1 and 2. The frequency button will beep but remains on multi-freq. It's not a big deal, but just wanted to know. I have tried the mode reset and nothing changed. Thanks. JC

    Clearwater Beach Hunts

    Was able to get out twice for a total of about three hours. Used the Impulse AQ as the beach is heavily detected. In the interest of time (and learning the tones), I dug everything. Did find one interesting pendant with turquoise stones. It rings up 12-03, 12-04 on the CTX. No markings...

    Two Hunts This Week

    Two hunts this week. About three hours all together. On the second evening, the cuts were nearly two feet. Lots of coins and a wave ring (cosmetic), and a lot of iron on the surface, but no shiny stuff...yet. Headed over to the Clearwater area this weekend and will work in some hunts, time...

    Clad and a Silver Ring

    Arrived in South FL this morning and worked most of the day. Was able to get out to two beaches for about two hours total. Decided to use the CTX this evening. The Impulse AQ will get its chance, tomorrow. Managed to find a little clad, a little junk, and a .925 ring with a stone. I need to...

    First Day with the Fisher Impulse AQ

    First day with a new machine after a ten-year break for me. Not sure what I was thinking, but it is certainly great to be back. I am one of those guys who decided to take a chance on the AQ Limited. Not many positive things out there but, at this point, I think I have acquired enough patience...

    Getting Back Into It. Whatzit?

    Finally back after a few years. Pulled this out near an old house in Central Florida. Anyone have any idea what it might be? Thanks. JC

    Another Great Find

    I've been fortunate to have made some fantastic discoveries over the last month. The crucifix on Monday and this little gem which is certainly no exception. Found this on the dry slope yesterday at about 8 inches. After the first scoop, I saw the coin. As I reached down to remove it, the chain...

    Another Great Find

    I must first begin by thanking Mud for the inspiration today. Yesterday, a beautiful crucifix. Today, this beauty was retrieved at about 8" down and 15 ft off of the dunes. The chain is 14kt and the coin was minted in honor of the new constitution for the Bahamas. Total weight of 28g. I don't...

    Beautiful Crucifix

    Found this yesterday at the beach. No markings. Registers as a 12-05/06 on the CTX and weighs approximately 6g.

    Yesterday's Hunt Yellow and Clad

    Spent about three hours hunting yesterday. Was able to pull out $5 in clad, one 10K CZ (oh well) and a beautiful crucifix that weighs in at 6 grams with no markings. Rings up 12-05/06 all day. Happy hunting to all that can right now...

    Back to the Beach That Keeps on Giving

    Spent about five hours hunting the beach that produced a wonderful hunt last weekend. What are the chances of doing it again? Apparently, pretty good. 14K set. The engagement ring was the second target of the morning. The beaver tail being the first. I just had a feeling it would be a good...

    Beach Find

    This was part of multi-day hunt that yielded nearly 200 coins, six rings, and the usual suspects. It is approximately the same diameter as a quarter, is copper, and very encrusted. Not sure if anything can be done to help the corrosion. We have record of one documented shipwreck from the...

    Maybe the Coolest Find Yet

    This is a follow-up to the fantastic multi-day hunt that yielded nearly 200 coins, six rings, and the usual suspects. I am not sure what this is. I am assuming it is a coin. It rings up as copper and the only markings are what can be seen in the photos. Perhaps someone can chime in. As you can...

    A Great Day to Hunt

    Had one of those really good hunts that come along once in a great while. Found a beach that seems to have not been hunted in a while if at all. Five hours yielded four rings...a 10K Opal, a sterling, one stainless, and a junker. Ten dollars in clad to boot. One small pendant with no markings. I...

    A Partial Hunt This Morning

    Sorry for the bad pun. Took a spin this morning and found a first. It troubles me that someone is walking around minus a few teeth. I will attempt to get this back to the rightful owner as I am sure these are pricey. A few coins and a sterling earring. It was a beautiful morning. HH to all.

    One for Three...Three for one

    I received three calls this week for ring recoveries. The first individual had lost his late father's wedding band while fishing in St. Augustine. Three hours of searching the silty marsh produced nothing. Last night, I searched a lake for a 1 KT ring that was somewhere in a litter-filled body...

    Caching In

    This is not a plug for me; however, I rent metal detectors to individuals in the local area. Last week, a gentleman contacted me about using a unit. He had an older BH but was looking for a cache of coins and jewelry his grandfather had buried. He indicated it was buried in the 2-3 ft range. I...

    Beach Finds 12/24

    Found these two goodies at low tide yesterday. Both are products of the CTX with the 17" coil. The ring is big. Initially, it rang up as a 11/12-47; however, after cleaning, it is ringing up as a 12/36-43. Perhaps it was silver plated. Very nice, nonetheless. The chain rings up as 12-02 so I am...

    Beach Find

    Found this ring today at low tide. Has some weight to it but I am assuming it is costume jewelry. No markings. Anyone ever seen a similar one? Thanks.
