    MX Sport Finds Gold! (aka "I Once Was Lost and Now I am Found")

    (Rather than re-write my story here is how I posted it to my Facebook ) "Some of you may not be aware that one of my hobbies is metal detecting as I've done it on and off since I was a teenager and in fact built my very first one from a kit. I am a member of our neighborhood forum so when I saw...

    Tesoro Category?

    A long time forum member here who has primarily used Whites and now that I'm interested in a Tesoro I don't see a forum category for it? Perhaps my eyes need checking and I just can't find it. (This question was posted in another thread before I realized it should probably have been posted...

    I Wish

    I wish there were more forum posts and YouTube videos (in English) about the DeepTech detectors. I am especially interested in the Vista Smart Plus. Have any of you owned this detector and the Tesoro Tejone? Would love to hear your thoughts when comparing the 2. I'm used to having a screen...

    Heathkit GD-48

    To show you how long ago I started detecting, I bought a Heathkit "metal locator" in the early 70's and soldered the boards and assembled it. It had very little depth of course but I found more wheaties with it than any other detector since (got lucky with the site selection) Anyone else...

    [No title]

    I say it's time to get rid of this statement at the top of our forum...they've been out in the market long enough don't you think? Then again, I've been wrong before...but only once. :wave:

    Bottle Cap VDI's

    Yesterday was my first time out to use my new V3. In order to start my learning process, I went to a small local park where I knew it would be a trashy site. My hunch was confirmed when I began digging a lot of bottle caps. On many of the bottle cap VDI's, the range was in what I would...

    Audio Burst When Detector is Stationary

    Yesterday was my first day out with the new V3 (Thanks Monte). I took it to a small public park (that I knew was contain a lot of trash) and began my learning process with the machine. From time to time when I sat my detector down to dig, it would sporadically emit a tone from time to time. It...

    Analyze & SpectraGraph Experiences

    I'd love to hear about your experiences with the Analyze screen feature. How much are you utilizing it in deciding to dig or no dig? If you're using it, how accurate has it been for you? Also, are any of you using the Spectragraph feature as well? Are many of you considering a smaller coil...

    Dual Wireless Headphones

    Do I correctly recall that if you have two sets of wireless headphones that you can tune in on the same channel and both users will hear the V3 audio? If so, has anyone tried this, even if only for training purposes?

    TX Boost

    Is anyone using this with any regularity? If so, what are your experiences with it? Thanks!

    I'd Pay For a Hands-On Training Workshop

    I'm curious as to how much interest there'd be in this, but I'd gladly pay a resonalble fee for training on the V. Perhaps a Regional Network of Dealers (or White's themselves) could easily set up training seminars in 4-5 locations in the US. This could be a nice little money maker (at least...

    Definition of "Dongle"

    A device that attaches to a computer to control access to a particular application. Dongles provide the most effective means of copy protection. Typically, the dongle attaches to a PC's parallel port. On Macintoshes, the dongle sometimes attaches to the ADB port. The dongle passes through all...

    Why Would You Need The Smaller Coil?

    If the V3 does a better job in analyzing targets (bars/sine waves/etc.) why would you really need a smaller coil for trashy areas? Is it because it would do a better job of ignoring trash so you wouldn't have to interpret it to begin with? Seems like you'd be able to ignore the trash by using...

    MXT and Nickles

    Since owning my MXT (admittedly it hasn't been that long) I've found every denomination except a nickle. I don't know if it's due to their reading or just the luck of my swing. Any comments, comparisons or suggestions?

    Jeff Foster

    So how long will it take Jeff to write a book on the V3? I bought both his books when I owned the DFX and MXT.

    "Turn On and Go" Programs - How About It?

    What have been your experiences with the "turn on and go" settings of the V3? Does the unit seem to do better than say, the turn on and go programs of the DFX? Or any other detector that you may previously have owned. I currently own an MXT and have owned a DFX in the past but frankly, I got...

    Haven't We Had Enough Discussion on Warranty?

    How about more success stories of what you've found with your Vision on previously hunted sites? :detecting:

    Not Another Comparison Question...Well, Sorta

    How many White's users are former E-Trac users? If you switched from an E-Tract, how come? What do you like about your White's that your E-Trac didn't have and visa versa? I'm just doing some thinking about what my next detector is going to be and would love to hear your opinions. Thanks.
