    These look like meta grain storage bins that were built into the ground. I am assuming for raw materials making moonshine. But I am not sure. I have metal detect a leveled out area upstream about 30 feet and found lots of rusted barrel hoops and a bent U-shaped small gauge rail road track about...

    CTX to the XP2

    About a year ago sold my CTX to buy the XP2. Why? Too heavy for me since I am older and I hated the swing harness especially the Minelab swing harness. Got the Doc Swingy Thingy and it was much better but you still had to unhook it on kneeling and digging. At least I did. Love the very light...

    went from heavy to light

    Tried the CTX3030 for 1 year. Loved everything about it except one thing. The weight. Had to use a swing harness and hated every minute of it. Tried the Minelab swing harness and it was the worst for me. Switched to Doc's Swingy Thingy harness and it was much better than the Minelab harness...

    Anyone used to live and detect in Atlanta and know some great places that you used hunt?

    Metro Atlanta is a tough place to find silver coins. I am looking for good coin or civil war relic hunting spots in metro Atlanta. If you used to hunt these areas back in the 70's and 80's and wouldn't mind sharing the locations, please send me a private message. Thanks

    anyone know the XP2 TID for a civil war belt buckle?

    I am rather optimistic. Would like to adjust my relic tones on my XP2 to have a distinct tone on civil war belt buckles. Any know what they ring up or have a XP2 and CW belt buckle to get the TID?

    New XP Deus II user here with the 9" coil with MI-6 and WSA II XL headphones

    Have owned the CTX3030 and Nox 800 so should not have too much trouble learning xp2. CTX was a fine machine, but simply got tired of having to use a swing harness. Looking forward to learning the XP2 and hope the wireless MI-6 and WSA II XL headphones are all that I expect them to be.

    with regrets, I sold my CTX3030 after 11 months.

    Best detector I have ever owned. But I could not get over the weight and necessity using a swing harness. It got to a point where detecting was not fun any more using a swing harness. I will be buying the XP Deus II, with the RC, 9" coil and WSA II XL headphones. Heard a lot of good things about...

    target trace question

    First of all I am new to the CTX, have had it for 8 months. My understanding the target trace is a visual trace on the detect screen that traces in real time the FE-CO numbers and the colors indicate signal strength with dark red the highest and yellow lowest. Someone I think on this forum ask...

    CTX3030 Xchange2 question

    How do I make a copy of a mode so I can modify it slightly? Reason is I wish to put almost the same mode but with slight differences under another save mode name so I can choose between the two quickly using the USR mode switching button.

    What does the word "smart" mean in the CTX30303 description of their coils

    is this just a marketing term or is their some type of beneficial intelligence in their 3 smart coils for the CTX?

    CTX3030 determining gold rings from aluminum junk like pop tops, pull tabs can slaw

    Ok, I know the answer most likely be no it cannot be done. But does anyone have any combination of settings that can give an indication a 14 k ring under the coil is not aluminum junk? I know on the Nox 800 you could easily keep aluminum junk from masking silver coins by hunting in 4k. using...

    Have had a heat wave and dry spell for 3 weeks now - dirt is so dry and hard should I wait?

    I have several really good sites to hunt. Will be coin cherry picking with my CTX. Should I wait until we get some rain for the following reasons? hard dirt, hard digging. almost impossible digging decent plug and hurting some of the grassy areas, and of course some say coins sound better in wet...

    Nothing worse than...

    Having a new CTX3030 and 98 degree weather for weeks on end with 110 feels like temperature and 91 degrees at 9:00 pm. Absolutely cannot hunt in this heat, even early in the morning it is in the mid 80's and going up fast. It looks like a big part of the US is having this unusual heat wave in...

    just curious who has purchased a CTX in the last 12 months

    What were your reasons? other than it is a darn good detector. I bought mine after getting fed up with my Nox 800 for my type of hunting. Urban and suburban trashy parks trying to find gold rings.
