    X terra coil repiar?

    I have a Minelab 505 that I love. The other day one of the ears on the stock coil broke off, due to old age (4 years ) or excessive use. So now I'm stuck. Does anyone know how to fix it? I see online there are coil repiar kits for the CTX3030 and other detectors but have found nothing for the...

    Where are all the CTX users?

    i found these with my CTX. While detecting, I was with a friend who initially discovered their location but said he wouldn't dig them because they came up "trash" on his detector. He doesnt have a CTX. I went over the same area with my CTX and got a great signal. I dug and here is the result...

    Where are all the CTX users?

    I've been using my CTX for about five years. I struggled in the beginning to understand what in the world all those buttons did. Gradually I learned to a point where I began to feel comfortable and confident as I hunt. The other day my 17 inch coil said to dig a target tha was 11 inches down. I...

    Where are all the CTX users?

    I hope you enjoy the ctx 3030. I bought mine with the idea that I would learn everything there was to know about it Here I am years later and I still don't know everything. But I know a lot, and I get better using it all the time. It's an amazing detector. My brother has a exterra 505 and he...

    Where are all the CTX users?

    I dont post much either, but the CTX is the best detector ever! I liked my etrac a lot (still do) but I'd stick with the CTX anyday.

    I finally think I've got it

    I've owned a CTX3030 for about two years. Honestly I've really struggled to understand everything about it. I wanted to understand everything there was to know about my detector. I wanted to know the settings and programs down to the smallest detail. I've written to the guys on this list for...

    Last night at the same park

    Went out last night to the same park I've been over at least 25 times. As I was leaving, my Ctx 3030 gave off a faint signal that said was eight inches down. i thought " why not?" And this was the result. Ive been over this ground again and again. Guess you ever know !

    Sizing on the Ctx3030

    Well that makes sense! Guess I misunderstood the way sizing works. But thank you for the explanation!

    Sizing on the Ctx3030

    I'm reading through Andy Sabisch's book on the Ctx and he recommends that we use "sizing" when we find a target. I believe it changes the number of " boxes " on the background of the screen to help you determine the size of a target. If this is correct, then sizing doesn't seem to do do much for...

    Question about tones

    I'm still learning my ctx3030. I'm using a couple programs that I downloaded to find coins. My success has been moderate, and enjoyable, but I ran across something I guess I don't understand. In my downloaded programs, the tone ID profile was set on "combined tones" and that seemed fine to me...

    Earphones for the ctx3030

    I have a pair of the grey ghosts with my CTX 3030. My overall hearing though is not so good, so I have a hard time hearing tones with them, even with the volume control turned way up. i guess it's just me....

    CTX Survival Guide

    A company called Detector Experts, had a supply of a plastic laminated booklets called the Minelab CTX survival guide. From what I understand, its a small field manual summarizing the position and uses of the buttons on the CTX touch screen. I wanted one because I still have quite a time...

    Xterra 705 old stock?

    I was in Sportsmens Warehouse last night and saw they were having a sale on metal detectors. On the shelf was a new Xterra 705 for 297.00. Salesman said they were getting rid of old stock. Didnt plan on buying one, but couldn't pass it up. Everyone needs another detector!

    Question about headphones

    So I bought a really nice set of gray ghost headphones for my minelab ctx3030. With my new headphones, I discovered that because of my advancing age, I really can't hear targets that well when I pass over them. I've tried it both wirelessly and also have connected directly using an adapter. My...
