    1st beach hunt with new Legend

    I have been considering pulling the trigger on the Legend as a backup. I have both the Equinox 600 and 800 which I think are great detectors. My only complaint is the ergonomics and even with the carbon fiber shaft on my 800 I still find it very nose heavy and it has been causing a lot of pain...

    New coil

    Right on, it's been my go to coil for a while now. Although I like using a larger size coil on the beach for covering more area, the 10x5 coil I can swing for hours due to the weight, and it has been performing very well. Good luck, and happy hunting.

    New coil

    I did a little detecting today at a local park with my Nox 600 with the Coil Tek and something I've been playing with is setting the sensitivity between 6-10 to get those targets just below the grass surface and I have been hitting a lot of jewelry that way. I'm also using some earbuds so I can...

    New coil

    The 5x10 coil is killer on small gold, and is my main coil right now. I think it's the perfect size for tot lot's and parks. I have even had a lot of success on beaches.

    Epoxy recommendation for coil ear fix

    No problem Steve, as soon as I hear something I will post it. Usually it's JB weld that we use, I have also used Gorilla epoxy and it works for only so long. These vinyl L brackets are more pliable, and seem like they should do the job. So basically trying to bond vinyl to abs plastic. Thanks...

    Epoxy recommendation for coil ear fix

    Thanks Steve, and Gary for your feedback it's much appreciated. I plan to contact a few of the epoxy manufacturers and send them the vinyl L bracket to see what they recommend. It looks like they should be a good replacement part as long as I can find a good bonding epoxy. Thier the black...

    Epoxy recommendation for coil ear fix

    Thanks sprchng for your reply I appreciate the information. All instructions were followed exactly except for the quick flame from a lighter. We're usually able to get a good bond with the epoxy and the coil stiffeners, I think it may be the material these l brackets are made of possibly and...

    Plastic clamp on middle rod .

    So I was detecting a local park with my Simplex and extended the rod, and the little plastic clamp that locks the lower rod in place snapped. Has anyone else had that happen, or do you no of something else I can use that would be more sturdy? Thanks, Nate

    Vdi numbers for gold rings.

    Hello everyone recently bought a Simplex just wondering with the wider vdi spread if anyone has done any testing of gold rings to see if there is a narrower margin as to where they come in at. I know on the Nox some ladies rings come in the low foil range + 4 or 5 up to say the penny range. Has...

    I did eventually by a coil fix it kit with zip ties and its been holding up so far on the stock coil, but looks real tacky. I also have the 15 inch which I have been using at the beach and am afraid of the ears snapping on that coil. For that very reason have been considering buying the...
