    Relaxed night hunt.

    This week it seemed like a more relaxed hunt. Probably because we got off to an earlier start. We didn't expect so much this time as it had been a bit colder this week and we were right about that. We must be getting old as we've spent some considerable time catching up on lost sleep. No...

    Thursday night/Friday morning hunt.

    It's been a while since we had an all nighter. Started at 8pm and finished at 4:30am. It was a very nice night, it was 14c and very still when we started. At first it seemed we could only find coppers 2 pence's and one pence's. We needed a couple of hours to get into the higher denomination...

    Another Racer hunt.

    We got out on Thursday past and started at 10:30am – 5:30pm. The weather has not been good here for beach hunting with lots of high icy cold winds. Man this machine can really hit hard on coins and seems absolutely no effort. Another thing we like about them is the rain and dust covers; they...

    Racer review

    Racer Review. Hunting with those very well built machines we felt quickly at home and confident with them. I immediately felt the detectors were extremely high quality, no adjustments were made from the default settings except to ground balance after having switched on. 10 seconds was ample...

    First hunt with our Racers.

    First hunt with the Racers yesterday. Our previous 3 hunts at this beach produced nothing, it's about half a mile long and gets hammered by many locals and some visitors. Eileen thought it was a waste of time even considering this beach. We arrived there at 10am and worked it until 2pm. Within'...

    Inches or centimetres.

    Once you have set the Racer to Inches or U.S. Does it memorise that after you switch off/on?

    Fri 8th July take for the evening.

    Unfortunately we were behind 4 other guys, :nopity: and I thought it was gonna be a poor night. :thumbdown: :thumbdown: But, it turned out not so bad. I reckon they were usin' too much disc for their own good. :clapping: :clapping: Total came to

    All night hunt Thu. to Fri.

    [b]My P'p'n' thumb was gettin' itchy, so we decided to try an all night hunt Thu night to Fri mornin'. :twodetecting: Of course that meant we had to sleep all day Fri. I found it real hard to pick out the targets without seein' the VDI readout. I

    :confused:Which coil for my F70.

    I'm torn between the 10 x12 sef (butterfly coil) and the Fisher 11 inch bi axial DD coil. Which one would you recomend and why? Weight is a consideration too. I do realise that either one would give a steadier and more accurate vid, I go by the sound followed up with vid to decide whether to dig...

    Forgot about the cracker returned to owner.:bouncy:

    Came across this young Italian couple and the girl was very distressed as she had lost her wedding ring 20 minutes before. They had spent a lot of effort to no avail and she was almost in tears, Eileen got to them first and had a go but alas, no luck. I arrived at the scene about ten minutes...

    Now I know why you guys pick up so many dimes:rofl:

    Hey, got some interesting info from a minelab owner. Yee haa. He told me he just couldn't pick up any 5 pence pieces. During our little vacation we did a tot lot at 04:30 we got a large handful of them 5 pences and not a lot else although they missed a deep pound. We guess it's been getting done...

    From Russia with love:smoke:

    These coins must have been in the sand for a good 20 years as they were heavily encrusted, so much so that they were each around 3/16" - 1/4" thick. Boy they took some cleaning just to get them to this state, but for us they were entirely different. That's half the fun not knowing what your...
