    Meed a little help with the Nokta Pointer.......

    I recently won a Nokta Pointer t a seeded hunt. I run a Deus with an MI-6 but thought the Nokta Pointer would do well partnered with my loaner/backup which is a Teknetics Minuteman. I set up the Nokta Pointer as per the user manual, to max depth but am only getting a depth of 7/8". This does not...

    Apex question.............

    Is anyone else having false hits on the Apex? I do not mean a little noise, I mean a good, hard hitting, loud hit. Then when you go back over the spot, there is nothing there. This happens on every 3rd or 4th swing and is a great bother to me. I have tried every trick I know to stop this, but...

    Simplex+ Notch

    The Simplex+ manual calls it 'Notch Discrimination'. I was talking to a guy and he said it was just 'discrimination' and using any woukd decrease detection depth. Since all detectors I have ever had that used discrimination the setting started at 0 up to a much higher number. No detector that I...

    Detecting Washington State questions...........

    I am from Deep South Texas but in June of 2020 I will be traveling to Marysville, Washington and staying for 2 weeks. I will be staying with a friend that does not detect. I will ship my detector and accessories to him before I leave. I have no ideas what the laws are in Washington or in...

    -Test run on the Minuteman........

    This is a hunt that I just had to post. Not that it is something special, but to show how well an entry level detector can and does work. I didn't think I would find much on this hunt. I didn't have a loaner detector. That is, one that I wouldn't be hesitant about loaning out. I wanted something...

    X-45 ciol questions.............

    I will be getting my new X-35 9" found coil early next week. I have been using the LF 9" coil for 1 1/2 years and have been on V5.2 since it was released. I hunt, almost exclusively, newer, trashy parks for clad and jewelry. I have a question for you guys and gals that have been running the X-35...

    Anfibio weight............

    OK, I am now 69 years young and not near as strong as I was when I started detecting back in 1971. Now that I have the Anfibio, I am really liking it. Except for one thing. It is too heavy for me to be able to use for over an hour. It just pulls me down. I am looking for ways to lighten it up so...

    Something just not right................

    but I do not know what. I had the MMK and had no problems setting it up. I traded it off and wish I would have kept it. I had the chance to trade for the Anfibio so I did. Now, I can not get the Anfibio set up like the MMK. The problem is that I hunt in extremely trashy and newer parks. Not a...

    Couple of questions and remarks..............

    1. Is the Anfibio control unit connected with a screw like the MMK is? 2. Is there a Nokta/Makro/ repair center in the US? 3. Is there any known issues with the Anfibio? I had the MMK and like an idiot, I traded it. I did not get along with what I traded it for and now I am trading for an...

    2 hour hunt in the heat and humidity...........

    Still hot and humid down here in the mid 80's. I had to get out for a while. I went to a small community center in my town that I have detected in the past. It had been a couple of years since I had detected here and there was a small area behind that I had not hunted. I was a bit surprised at...

    User Profile question.........

    I have not yet received my Nox 800 from my seller. I am reading everything I can and watching videos so that when it does get here, I will be understand how the settings work and be able to begin playing around with the them. I am basically a park hunter and my parks are super trashy. I will...

    Headphone jack..................

    I have ordered my new 800 and it should be here in a few days. I have searched for an answer and looked through the manual and can not find what I am looking for. I have the Garrett Z-Lynk and the Z-Lynk Carrot and used it on other detectors. I want to use it with the 800. The manual shows the...

    Is there a wireless pinpointer in the future???

    I hope that Makro is working on a wireless pinpointer to go with the Kruzer. I do not like lifting the headphones off my ear to heat my pinpointer and yes, I am a bit of hard of hearing. I am having to use the Z-Lynk with the Z-lynk Carrot. It works but it is a bit of a bother. Help us out here...

    Trying out the MMK..................

    I recently acquired a Makro Multi Kruzer and took it out for a quick 1 hour hunt yesterday afternoon. I am quite impressed with the Kruzer! I went out to one of our local, hard hit parks yesterday afternoon for just under one hour. The Kruzer is quiet in 2 or 3 tones but chirps a lot in 4 tone...

    Deep South Texas heat and short hunt........

    I haven't posted in a while although I get out for short hunts three or four times a week. Yesterday was a hot, hot day but I had to get out so, I waited until late afternoon and visited a school that I had not been to in almost a year. Another hot Deep South Texas day and a late afternoon hunt...

    Ground balance.............

    I have been around since 1971 and had many detectors so ground balance isn't anything new to me, but it is a bit different on the Xp Deus. I can get it done but for people just starting out it would be great if there was a video that actually shows the the steps necessary to gb the Deus for each...

    Where are all the posts on the................

    MX5 ??? I just picked one up and have watched every vid on YouTube and read just about everything I can find doing an internet search. The MX5 seems to be a very good detector but where are all the posts about them here on this forum? I just had surgery and it will be at least a week before I...

    Garrett Z-Lynk..................

    Could not find a forum that fit this except here. Anyway....... Garrett z-Lynk. Who has one and are you having problems with the transmitter suddenly shutting off?? I am presently on my 3rd unit. Garrett has been good at replacing problem units for me but this is beginning to bother me. The...

    Question for you 705 guys..................

    Several years ago, I had an Xterra70. I gave it a good go for about a year but I found that in the extremely trashy parks that I hunt in, I could not distinguish between a smashed can and a quarter and believe me, there are a lot of cans and other like objects in the parks I hunt. I sold the 70...

    My Garrett AT Pro Pointer is.......................

    making a light frying sound at the switch and after just 26 hours of setting on my desk, and off, has run the new battery down that I put in yesterday. This is the second one that has done the same thing! They replaced the first one, no questions asked. First one was less than a year old and had...
