    Change coil charging clamp

    The only thing I really dislike is the coil charging clip. But, I have an idea for you 3-D printers. Change the clamp 90 degrees and make it longer. I'm thinking like a pair of pliers. Grab from the side not the top.

    Coil charging clip

    Does anyone make a replacement that's easy to use? The coil charging clip is very stiff. Maybe I should keep it in a warmer place? I keep snagging it on the coil cover.

    Core material

    New pennies, Zink core. Dimes, quarters, halves, dollars?? I'm assuming all have the same material in the core. Given that, our detector reading related to size of the core. Again an assumption is it's a bronze component. That assumption based on copper pennies reading in the silver range...

    Still learning

    I'm new to Dues 2. I've got about 20 hours on it. Long way to go! I could use some help on numbers. Most anything above 90 is silver (also copper pennies and old sprinkler heads). I haven't dug a single nickel. Quite a few pennies, 84-88. Can slaw and junk jewelry below that. What are...

    Balance

    I used the D2 for the second time today. My forearm started getting very tired after 4 hours. The balance is just off for me. I'm planning on adding some lead inside tube right under the cuff. I was wondering if others have done that?? How did it work??

    MI6 question

    Does it read off of the nose or side? How deep? My old Whites TRX reads mostly at the nose and goes pretty deep. Garret carrots is more of a side reader and isn't deep at all.

    Sound and screen

    The old Whites V3i has stereo sound, right ear higher value targets, left ear iron and ? The screen has 3 color bars, one for each frequency. For example, bottom bar is green, usually silver. Does anyone make anything like that now??

    Probably regret it

    I probably will, but I listed my MXT AP on the for sale forum. I bought a V3i just had to many machines. I sold 2 others and the MXT was sitting unused and I just decided it needed to go to a good home too. I've enjoyed posting here and your company, I hope I didn't make a serious mistake...

    Trying to figure this out

    Doing some test runs in a very trashy park. I got a 16/42, both ways. Turned out to be a dime. Seemed like odd numbers to me. Running basic factory program with the sound level turned way down.

    Mostly junk

    But, other than being cold trying to hunt in the snow, I have found a keeper or 2. I don't find many coins where I hunt and the only one of note is a 41D wheat. My digging pard and I have found a few neat head stamps. Several from late 1880's to early 1920's.

    detector mount?

    Anyone have a way to mount the MXT to a 3 pt hitch??
  15. J

    I might have to buy one or two.

    I've been digging a bit over 1 1/2 years. I'm starting to think the only way to get an old coin or even a silver one is to buy it....... 1 1/2 years and my "old coins" are 5, count'em 5, wheat pennies. Only one before 1950, a 1940. Either this area has been detected to death or like...

    Aaaaahhhhhh

    It's been several months since I've been able to get out and fish. It was nice while it lasted. At least I got in a couple hours at an old swimming hole along a river. It's been dry for years when a flood wiped out the intake pipe. The current owner just mows the weeds that grow there now...

    Slim pickens

    Got out for a while yesterday No pic's as I'm sure you've all seen junk before. I found $1.35 in junk money, nothing older than '74. One boy scout knife, pretty toasted, a dog tag from 200 miles away and a steel fence post. Along with the usual Al junk and bottle caps. What I did learn, and...

    Dead ??

    Pretty dead around here. My partner and I got out to a park a couple times. It's about the only area that's not white or mud. Just found a few new coins and a couple empty cases.

    I guess it's not to be !

    I found a pewter top to ??? something. It's on an abandoned farm site where the house burned in a wheat fire (50-60 yrs ago?? uncertain exactly). I found the lid ?? the first trip out there. I've been back 3 times and beat the area to death in all directions. I was there yesterday before the...

    Not quite sure

    Not quite sure what to think about this park or the machine. It's an old park for this area, in use from the 1860's (officially a park in the 1930's). I was thinking much trash and used the 5.3 the first day. Found 3 pennies and wasted a lot of time with such a small coil and not much trash...
