    Best settings for finding large iron objects

    Hi all, I have been lucky enough to be recruited by a historical society team that is looking to find a section of historical, abandoned railroad tracks from the 1830's. I say lucky because the section of railroad is of significant historical value as its construction was an example of the very...

    Vibraprobe for SCUBA

    Has anyone used a Vibraprobe Vibra-Quatic 2 for SCUBA and detecting or is it unnecessary extra gear? I have a CTX3030 that I have moded with better o-rings that I plan on using up to 30ft deep and an Infinium LS for deeper water. I really like using my pinpointer on dry land but is a PP helpful...

    Solo dive and Metal detecting

    For you metal detecting divers: Do you prefer to solo dive when you are metal detecting swimming holes and beach areas or do you insist on diving with a buddy? If you do solo dive, I am assuming it would be a beach/shore walk in dive, how deep will you go by yourself? If you do solo dive, do...

    Hand Grip Shredding:rant: Followup:nerd:

    Devildog and everyone else who has had a problem with the rubber hand grip shredding, what type of gloves do you use? I have only used leather gloves when I am using my detector.

    Solid bottom coil covers

    Has anyone ever seen one, made one, or made a suggestion to minelab to make the coil covers for the 6", 11" and 17" coils without the cutouts in them? From a manufacturing standpoint I would assume it would be cheaper for them to produce without the extra step of the cutouts. I have recently...

    Pro Swing and CTX 3030

    I have had my Pro Swing for a year now. I was wondering if anyone has had the same problems I have had and what did you do to modify/fix the problems. 1) I am not a small guy so I had to unstitch the front straps and move them closer to the front of the belt. I did not like how they wrapped...

    Where should I hunt?

    I wanted to share the story of this one particular park I have been hunting for about 7 years. There are a couple of other people who detect there on occasion but I believe I am the only one who detects there almost every day. The history of this park is it use to be part of a plantation until...

    Fisher F19 comparison to other detectors

    OK, for those who are getting and have tested the NEW Fisher F19, inquiring minds want to know, how does it compare (Pro's and Con's) to other machines such as the AT Pro, GBP/G2, E-trac, Eurotek, Tesoro, or any other machine you can do a comparison with. What features make it stand out from...

    VX3 and emi

    Are the coil wires loosely wrapped? If so then they will shake while holding the detector up like that and your detector will basically be detecting its own wires and giving you a signal.

    Do you scuba and detect?

    I really haven't read much on here from people who SCUBA, mostly posts about wading and detecting. How many of you SCUBA and detect? Lets hear some stories, great finds, harrowing moments, reports on the equipment you have used (Regulators, masks, tanks, hookah systems, detectors of course...

    Has anyone had a problem with the screen not working? I just went to turn my detector on and it appears to be working and detecting fine but the screen has stopped working. Also when I plug the USB in it is not recognizing the CTX3030 on my computer. I checked the connector twice and it is...

    How to impress a 17 year old

    My 17 year old son was in the garage constructing a boom for an elevated mounting of his GoPro. After he attached the mount (no camera, just the mount) he took it out in the yard to show my wife what he was doing. While in the yard he lost the lock nut to the mount. Apparently, this is some...
