    F70 Still Loved?

    Through a series of life changes I moved away from detecting. Nowadays, I'm into fishing and fly fishing pretty heavy. Even have an international group on facebook: Palmetto Fly n Fish (shamless plug) BUT - I still have my F70 and my Tiger Shark (yes, before anyone says it, I know Tesoro is...

    Eisenhower shows up with Mexican friend

    Took the F70 and bothered the dirt and sand at a local tot lot this morning. This one was an elementary school near the house. My knees aren't what they once were, so I gravitate towards the easy digging found in the sand and wood chips of these places. Casual detecting suits my style, anyway...

    What coils fit this detector? If you wanted to replace or add a coil, which series will fit?

    Morning hunt after more than three years.

    I got a wild hair and hit the local park this morning. I haven't been detecting in well over three years, so it was a bit of a re-learn. I turned the unit on and just started out with the previous settings: Now, I don't know where I last used my detector, but I'm guessing it was a clean field...

    F 70 - first time in 3 years!

    I got a wild hair and took the F70 to the local park this morning. I haven't been detecting in well over three years, so it was a bit of a re-learn. I turned it on and just started out with the previous settings: DISC: 1 SPEED: de SENS: 80 THRESH: 1 # Tones: 3H NOTCH: 1 Now, I don't know where...

    The Penny's Secret to Wealth

    Recent news may make the penny coin an economic windfall for those who have enough of them. Well, COPPER pennies, that is. Most of us will know the copper cent was discontinued in 1982, replaced by one made of zinc - what we derisively refer to as the Stinkin' Zincoln. The reason for this was...

    With Uncle Willy's passing - -

    - - I seem to recall that John B (Edmonton) is named moderator of this forum. Let us also remember the fine friend and advocate we have in John. I cannot think of a more likely, nor deserving, man to follow in Bills footsteps. Cheers to John! :thumbup:

    Dedicate this forum to Uncle Willy

    If it is possible, the forum mods need to make the copy changes that will dedicate this forum "to the memory of Bill Revis." No one man deserves it more than he.

    Miscellaneous GTP 1350 finds, Redux

    I took the 1350 out for a little junk-et in the real world today. I ran quick step over a tot lot, the local practice football field and then drove over to a parking median across from the Jewish temple. The whole run lasted about 90 minutes. I'm an early riser, and was back to the house before...

    Pro Pointer makes a slob

    I was watching a video this evening of a guy using an AT-Pro. I was interested in the detector but I ended up aghast as I watched him recovering his targets. He was searching a youth camp, well manicured and nicely landscaped. He commented on how nice and peaceful it was. So when he gets a hit...

    WIll gold jewelry go extinct?

    With the price of the stuff, the thinking is people will either stop buying it or cash it all in. Eventually, detectorists will scavenge most of what there is to find in the ground. With an ever dwindling supply of jewelry, an already shrunken supply of silver coins, government disdain for...

    GTP 1350 makes a point

    AS long as Ive been detecting, Ive been convinced that equipment is important. Good gear helps you get better results. I've tried instruments at every price point and cost isn't the only answer. But detecting is at it's best with good gear. Today I hauled out the GTP 1350 for a spin trough the...

    John-Edmonton: A question

    I see your seemingly never-ending display of jewelry and am agog. I know that much of it is due to your perseverance; you go every day, if possible. That is point one. But, Im interested in your distance traveled. How far do you go each day on your "common junk-ets," those around town, after...

    What about a RETURN to The Hobby?

    Some of you will recall my whining on about leaving the hobby, because the cops rousted me from the local high school. I swore that when I ran afoul of the local bullheads for the third time, I would hang up my detectors. And I did. It has been almost a year since I even looked at one. But Ive...

    Where did the CLASSIFIEDS go?

    I want to sell my GTP 1350 so I can fund an AT Pro. So there are no classifieds anymore with which to do it? What happened?

    Out of the Hobby

    I was thinking about this forum today - I havent been on in a while. Not since last years 3 rd run-in with the authorirites, anyway. What is going on with the Garrett-ites? Something wrong with Bill??
