    "New" coil for 1260x

    I was looking around on feebay tonight and found what appears to be a 10" coil for 34.00. The guy said it was "untested" and selling for parts, but it just looks too good not to work. I looked at his other for sale items, and he doesn't appear to be into detecting stuff, so I took a chance on...

    1260x aquisition

    My wife and I went to a local town tonight to dine out, and we saw a "fresh" yard sale sign. We went to the house, and the yard was full of junk. I had heard that the people had a couple of detectors that THEY purchased at yard sales over the years, so I asked the guy if he had any metal...

    Are there any performance-proven big coils on the market for the II's? Thanks for any info!

    Why so few posts about VX3?

    Seems like a wealth of info out there about the V3i, but not many reviews or comments on the VX3. I recently got a VX3, and couldn't find out a lot about that model compared to the other. Just curious....

    Explorer II vs. T2

    I own a standard T2, and it's done me well, but my digging buddy has an Explorer II, and he almost always finds more than me. Some relics that he has pinpointed are not even detectable on my T2. I do ok, though. He recently got a 3030, and I'm considering parting with the T2 for the older...

    Am I nuts?

    I'm selling my T2 and getting a White's VX3. My T2 is the standard model, and not the SE, but it has been very good to me. Have any of y'all owned or hunted with both types of machines? I'm really looking forward the getting the VX3, as I have simply just WANTED one, but wondering how the VX3...

    Golden Sabre II

    I can't seem to find out much about this older model. I just got one, and except for a broken headphone jack, it seems to be in good shape. I am sending it in to get that fixed, and get the unit checked-out. I believe that this will be a fun machine to use. Does it have multi-tones? I've wanted...

    Small coil for T2

    Thinking about getting a 5" coil for the T2. I have a large trashy sand area to hunt and there's some good stuff there amongst the trash. I've been trying to find a used small coil, but no luck, so may get a new one. Would it be worth it? Thanks for any replies.

    Dug alot of stuf with the T2 today

    No gold, though. Gold has been very scarce this year. Did find 2 rings(may be silver), one silver bracelet, a bunch of change, a dog tag, watch, and what you see here.

    Got a nice 1265

    It is clean! Got the machine with 2 coils(11" and 8"), 2 shafts Nice Fisher headphones, new batteries, and the owner's manual. I have read on here that some prefer the stock 8" coil, but others prefer the 11". I have the 11 on it. Shouldn't that one be deeper for relics? It's a spider coil.

    Will the coils interchange between the Freedom Ace 3 and the Freedom Ace Plus?

    I think the pins are the same configuration, but will there be any issues? Thanks.

    Picked-up a clean Treasure Ace Plus

    I've always liked my Tesoro beep-and-digs, so when I ran up on this at a flea market today, I wanted to get it for a comparison. I think this machine will be a good one. I haven't been able to find out anything about the 'Plus" model, but I think it will go fairly deep for it's class. Any of...

    Still having low battery issues with Excal

    I posted a while back about getting the low battery sound after 1-1/2 hours or so of hunting. Changed the battery pack in the pod, and it's still doing it. It's cut a few hunts short, and I can't figure it out. Thinking about parting ways with it. :surrender:

    Excal Problems

    I bought a nice used Excal 1000 a few years ago, and it's been a good machine. I noticed last fall that it was acting a little erratic, after being on for a couple hours. I had been using the Tiger Shark this season, but took the Excal out today, and the battery was showing fully charged on the...

    Compadre hard-wired 5.75 coil

    I just picked-up a like new Compadre with the hard-wired coil. Didn't realize at first that the coil was hard-wired, since it has the hex-nut shaped connector on the back of the control box. I turned it some in an attempt to loosen it, but realized it wasn't loosening. Still works fine, but was...

    1266X question

    I talked to an old guy today who has been digging a LONG time, and he says that the Los Banos 1266X is one of the deepest and best relic machines ever made. Is this true? Next question is how heavy are they? Thanks!
