    '03 Indian, '17 Canadian Cent

    Well, it has been a LONG time since I've been able to get out. Managed to spend about 40 minutes with the CTX. Not 5 minutes into my hunt I dug a 1903 Indian.... OK, I'm pumped up now! A few minutes and a few feet later, I dug a 1917 Canadian Cent (my first), dang thing is about as big as US...

    What an AMAZING day!!

    Got up at my usual time this morning, 0430. I had a day of hunting planned, made my coffee, oatmeal, read some on line news and packed up the CTX & AT Pro. Hauled everything out to my truck and came back in to take my dog out so the wife would not have to get up with her. Kelsey, my dog, did...

    CTX headed home!

    Spoke with Minelab today, CTX shipped out today, will have a tracking number tomorrow so I know when it expect it! Guess I should just look at the forecast and when it says rain, rain, rain... that's when it will arrive. Only took a few weeks for repairs, including shipping. They said it...

    Out of the tumbler comes a surprise!

    Was running a batch of Qtrs, Dimes and Nickles, clad or so I thought. After 6 hours I dried them off and discovered a 1946 Nickle. Nice surprise.

    Shipping back to Minelab question.

    When shipping the CTX back to Minelab, do you ship EVERYTHING; charger, extra battery pack, etc... OR just the main battery, unit and coil? Packing it up now.... The lady that called me back was VERY nice to deal with... it's those things that make a difference to me, also emailed me a...

    What happens when the coil is bad??

    OK, the best I can come up with is my coil, on my just over 2 week old unit, is bad. For those of you that have had their's replaced, what was it doing... how was your CTX acting??? Think I would rather have my motorcycle in the shop than my CTX!!!! :cry:

    Chatter and jumping numbers!

    Not sure what I did.... tried doing the reset procedure, a few times, nothing worked. I am getting crazy wild chatter, even when I hold the coil up into the air. Numbers are all over the place, even when holding the coil up. No EMI interference in the area, I was in my back yard which I have...

    Field testing CTX to AT Pro today.

    Heading out this morning with both units and a bag full of golf tees to test out the differences of the CTX and AT Pro. Since I have more time on the Pro I'll start out with her and mark suspected good signals then hunt the same areas with the CTX and mark good signals with different color...

    Super Faint 12-46, First Barber!!!

    I was "playing" in my back yard this afternoon with the CTX. I have POUNDED the yard with my AT Pro over the past year or so. Our house was built in 1926 and so far I had only found old Wheaties (and a ton of clad), 1 silver ring with some type of stone and a junk kids ring. I got a SUPER...

    Pin Pointing issue...

    Lately when trying to pin point nothing happens, after a few tries it works... I've got over a year swinging the Pro, not an expert but I feel I do the machine pretty well. Seems to be like that in all modes. Any one else having issues like this....

    2 Hour Hunt, much fun, 1 problem

    Got out today between rain bursts... Had a ton of fun with the CTX, found a buffalo (date unreadable) a few clad quarters, nickles, 5 dimes, a dozen pennies and 1 wheat. A few times the CTX screen said "overload" and once I could not shut off the power. I pulled the battery after 5 or 6 ties...

    17" coil

    Too new with the CTX to get one, but for those that use it, does it really go deep? I do want the 6" coil for some wooded property hunting, 17 acres of it. Had a few cabins from the later 1800s on it, should be interesting. :twodetecting:

    How to return to factory setting?

    In messing around while on my first out of the yard hunt, I did something and my CTX3030 went kinda nuts. I was attempting to adjust my threshold volume when a guy walked up to talk to me, I hit something, could not get back to that specific menu. The unit is noisy, chirping, jumping numbers...

    Charged over 30 hrs, still shows half charge

    Plugged in the charger yesterday afternoon, the far left light ( half charge) lit up, put the battery pack in, checked it was all the way in. The far left, half light, if still lit not the fully charged light. Usually when charging batteries, they get a little warm to the touch, not this...
