    Yeah buddy, sounds like they got all the kinks worked out. They probably took extra time to give your PI some personal attention, get everything set up and tuned just right. Man, I can't turn my Dual Field on anywhere in the house. That PI picks up metal everywhere. It went off on my metal file...

    Sweet! I can't wait to hear your reports on how the detector performs. There's not many new PI's out there, and the ones that are available, are either designed for the nugget busters or tend to cost well over $1,000, closer to $2,000. It would be great to have a good performing PI that's...

    It's super important, especially with a PI, to sweep in various directions when getting a signal. I might get a quick blip, then when I scan 90 degrees, the signal becomes long and drawn out. That's a pretty good indication of a tent stake. But that said, might it also be a cell phone, as that...

    I doubt it but did you hear of anyone crazy enough.......

    Well, you'll probably need to tell her when she asks you where you got the $ to buy a dozen new detectors, scoops, wet & dry suits, and all sorts of other goodies, lol.

    It had been a while for me as well, but once I hit that line, I milked it until it ran out, then turned around and worked the same line on the other side of the beach. I always get a kick when looking back at the holes I dug in the wet and can see a pretty well-defined line in the sand, lol.

    Carl is either a friggin' genius or has taken copious notes during his career, maybe a combination of the two. I can't believe all the detailed information he has compiled in that book, probably why it's 612 pages, lol.

    The most important thing for me and the PI when I found those coins and the ring is I actually got to hear their specific tone signatures. It was a combination of size, quality, and same tone in whatever direction I swung, sounded totally different than all the other targets. Since I was so...

    It's not just about PI's; it covers all metal detector technology from the beginning. There's chapters on BFO detectors, TR's, VLF's, PI's, Multifrequency, coils, just about everything you'd want to know/learn about detectors. I started with a BFO Heathkit back around 69', then upgraded to a...

    I doubt it but did you hear of anyone crazy enough.......

    Man Odan, I've thought many times what I would do if I ever hit the lottery. Of course, my first thought is to keep quiet, so I don't start getting phone calls and knocks on my door from distant "relatives". But at the same time, that would be such a huge life changing event, that I'd be dying...

    Seems a lot of the older PI's were based on Eric Fosters designs, that man left his fingerprints on a lot of different detectors, lol. I am by no means qualified to judge or evaluate PI designs, just got my first PI last year after 56 years swinging BBS/SMF, VLF, TR, and BFO detectors, but from...

    Interesting history.

    Nauti mentioned that 0.30 was marked on the clean projectile, so probably 30 cal. They were primarily used in rifles, and go by various names like .30-06, .308 Winchester (aka 7.62mm), .30-30, and a few others. I was AMMO in the Air Force, we handled 7.62, 5.56, 38 cal, 20mm rounds for F-4’s...

    Yeah, if it's not waterproof, it wouldn't be as attractive to beach hunters like a waterproof version would. Not that we're necessarily gonna be dunking the control box in/under saltwater. It's also great to be waterproof in case it starts raining when hunting, also keeps the sand out of the...

    Sounds like a plan. I don't recall exactly, but I think there's over 50K members in Finds? That's a lot of metal detecting eyeballs, and IMO, the only people in a metal detecting forum are people who have metal detectors, or people who are interested in metal detecting and want to learn more...

    Just a suggestion Nauti, probably my sales & marketing background coming through, but next time you correspond or speak with them, might want to drop a mention that you're a member of a large metal detecting forum in the U.S., and have a post running about the detector, with plans on testing and...

    Sounds like you lucked into a REALLY great deal, lol. It's nice to get unexpected upgrades and goodies, and BTW, that detector looks sweet! I'm an old school, twist a couple of knobs kinda guy, since starting 56 years ago when detectors had 1 or 2 knobs. Can't wait to hear how it works out for you.

    I doubt it but did you hear of anyone crazy enough.......

    I don't know of anyone personally planning to hunt OBX or VA Beach, but one time, about a dozen years ago, I hunted a beach as a hurricane was passing by offshore. That was an incredible experience but in retrospect, I guess some would say I was a bit crazy back then, lol.

    Silver is Going Crazy!!

    Well, well, well, check out this video. It describes and confirms what many of us had suspected about the recent crash, it was planned and manipulated. Very eye-opening video about the length’s the paper market will go to, and the shenanigan’s they’ll pull to manipulate the market for their own...

    And let us know how deep you were finding targets, and if you were on the wet, in shallow water, or on the dry. I noticed the PI has a speaker on the front of the control box, so I assume it's not waterproof? Even so, would still be a potentially great PI to use on the wet and very shallow water...

    Me either, but no worries. AI to the rescue! The CS4PI is a high-performance, pulse induction metal detector designed for challenging conditions, particularly beach environments, offering simple operation, deep detection, and robust build quality. Overview The CS4PI excels where conventional...
