    Depth Question

    My machine came with 1.09 and I loaded 1.11, today I picked up the upgrade kit with the LG30. I went to my test garden and barely got a squeak on a silver dollar at 9 inches, rechecked with my Tesoro Compadre and the signal was loud and clear. I even did a factory reset wit the new coil. I tried...

    First Ring Today

    Trying out my new LG15 coil in a tot lot in park mode set on ground, got a faint grunt with a 6 ID and saw just a hint go gold color peaking out from the wood chips as I passed over it. It's a tiny junker but always fun to find a ring.

    Legend Newbie

The Legend is my first attempt with a multi-frequency detector since I moved from Ohio to Dunedin Florida to try my had at beach detecting. They say you...

    My Legend's First Time Out

    It was cold but I wanted to get a feel for my new machine. I only dug solid repeatable signals and came away with a small handful of coins and a house key that was at least 2" deeper than my Garrett pin pointer, I even gave up on a feel targets. This thing can go deep. Looking forward to...

    Cautiously Considering A Nox

    Looking to purchase a Equinox in the very near future (moving to Florida this weekend) but concerned about the stories of flooded machines and broken coils. I'm wondering if I should take the plunge or look at something else. The beach will be 5 minutes away so that will be where it'll be used...

    Simplex Charging Question

    I received my Simplex and got it assembled, manual says to fully charge it. The battery indicator showed 3 bars when I plugged it in, bars 4 and 5 started flashing. Several hours later the indicator only shows 4 bars with no indication of charging. Has anyone experienced this?

    MX-7 or Simplex

    This may be a tired question but I have a never used MX-7, so my question would be should I skip the MX-7 and get a simplex or stay with the 7?

    6000 Di Pro

    I have a pristine blue box 6000 Di Pro that I recently acquired, when turned on it gives a good battery test but does not work otherwise. Any thoughts on what the problem could be?

    Finally!

    I hit the play area of a local park this morning for a quick 30 minutes hunt before work and my first find was also a first for me. A silver quarter from underneath some apparatus. I was using my new to me F2 with the 4" coil and discrimination maxed out to get closers to the steel structure. No...
