    Good to be out there again

    After the last few drought years, I was thinking that hitting the parks around me were going to be a thing of the past. Not so this year. The turf has come back strong and plenty of people have been using the parks and fields so far this year. So I dusted of the old F70 and got back out...

    A quick hunt between showers on the 4th.... 1st pocket spill

    After getting some honeydo's done, i figured I'd try and get a quick hunt in between thunder showers. Went to the local high school, no good. Large festival going on and parking was non existent. I ended up back at the sports complex and started to work around the picnic area. Lots of tabs...

    Post your favorite F70, F75SE, F75LTD, F75SE links please.

    Maybe it's me, but when looking for info and tips for the F70/F75, I find our search engine on this forum "limited" in its abilities. And trying to merge bookmarks from different computers/tablet /phone has been an ordeal lately, I thought if we could post some of those threads we all have...

    Hey Fisher, can DST be applied to the F70?

    Being it seems to work well on the F75, and that the electronic workings are so similar, have you all considered updating the F70 to have DST? Just curious.

    "Ah, grasshopper, you have learned...":detecting:

    First off, thanks to Elton, Mudpuppy, REVIER, ez4sure and many others for all your contributions to this forum. I have read and tried many of your techniques, but today, it finally all clicked into place. As some of you know, I detect in notoriously hot ground. Rarely do I get a ground phase #...

    Getting used to the 5x10 DD on my F70 :detecting:

    I've been getting tuned into the 10" DD and finding it to be pretty interesting. Mostly, this thing like to glide on turf. It doesn't drag or catch on twigs or clumps like the stock coil. Depth seems comparable, with maybe a little more "info" coming through. My area is GBing around 97, with 2...

    F75/70 "little coil" question. Which is better?:bouncy:

    I'm looking at improving my coil-quiver with a small trash/nugget coil. I know there are some huge fans of the 5"DD and have seen finds for the 6.5 conc "football". So, what are the pros/cons of each? Has anyone compared them both, owned both, or been in the same room with both? Just the...

    A quick trip around the RV park:wiggle:

    I stay at an RV park for the days (and nights) I work. Today I decided to take a quick run around with the F70 to see what I might scare up. GB ran between 93-99, and lots of EMI due to the buried cables. After several pull tabs and gum wrappers, I went for broke, being I was starting to run...

    would this be considered HOT ground?

    I have a section of my yard that GBs between 92-99. I was hoping to use this area as my test garden. But with the mineralization being so high, would that make it "too tought" a test area? Other areas near me range from GBs of 65 to 97.

    curious about headphones

    Looking for opinions on headphones. What works best. Features to look for. Features that are a waste of money. Traditional vs earbuds vs ???. For example, I like the on-ear, behind-the-head sports heaphones in hot weather. They allow me to wear a wide brim hat and I can easily remove one or...

    Looks like I'm an F70 owner

    While trying to find a detector on fleabay, I through a bid on a demo f70, and won.:wiggle: So, I need some info on what works and what doesn't. Headphones: How well do CalRads work on the f70? Being I will be in the desert, can "earbud type" of headphones work well? Coils: I plan on doing a...

    school me on the CZ's, please

    I was curious to know more about the CZ's. I know they are a multi frequency relic detector with a reputation for depth. But what are its strengths and weaknesses. What are they best at searching for. What are they not. Thanks.

    looking for info on Fisher Gold $trike?

    Saw one on fleabay and was wondering what the general thought was on the machine. Also, any tips on using it, if I were to bid on it, would be helpful. Thanks

    the MX5 and gold

    Just curious about using the MX5 as a gold/prospecting detector? I know Whites has some great coils for prospecting with the MXT. And being the MX5/M6 are basicaly a stripped down MXT. How well is the newer, lighter MX5 as a gold detector. I know its mainly a coinshooter. But its bloodlines...

    doing some research on MDs...

    I'm looking at getting a metal detector for general use and prospecting. I have 3 in mind, but want to get the pro/cons of each from those that have owned or used them. I'm very interested in the xterra 70/705 as it seems to be a good and light in weight machine. If I were to get one, what do I...

    tracking "black sands"

    I'm still looking at a few different detector for both prospecting an general use. Being I prospect in the northern nevada desert, one feature that I would like is being able to track black sands for setting up a drywasher or recirculator. The gold bug pro has the "magnetite meter" on screen...

    1st post, been lurking awhile...

    Hi all, I've been lurking the boards for awhile trying to gleen as much knowledge and info as possible. I've been trying to find a good machine for myself off-and-on for years. But the stars never seemed to line up for me on that. I became interested in MDing when I was a kid, around 9 or 10. I...
