    Standing Quarter and something from yesterday

    Went back to a 1840 house where I just can't find anything old. Got 6 mercs during the summer. Today I got the Quarter and the Silver spoon end, I think. Plus 24 Wheats. The coin marked "20" I got yesterday and didn't know what it was. Also the tag. Bud

    Back to 12 silver house

    I finally got back to the old house on Lake Erie that I hunted this summer. I got 12 silver that day and got too hot to continue. Very nice day in northern Ohio today. Got 20 Wheats in addition to the picture.

    12 Silver, 1 Indian and 33 Wheats

    I have not been able to get out with the weather soooo hot. It just kills my back, from the heat. Today the forecast was for around 81, and I ask at a 100 year old house right on Lake Erie. I got started at about 10:30 and finished at 4. The breeze from the lake allowed me to keep going...

    Repair car charger for E-Trac

    I was able to take apart the 12 volt cigarette lighter plug for my car charger. I have voltage at the circuit board, but none at the coaxial plug end. I tried wiggling the wire to see where the break is to no avail. I think the plug is an "H" size, but would like to replace the whole wire...

    How about adding a Sunray X-1 or using older coils

    I had hoped that Minelab would have a pin pointer as part of their new detector. Since the cable on the CTX3030 goes all the way back to the battery, I can't see how an X-1 pin pointer could be added to this machine. Don't know how I can detect without the X-1. Since the cable is so long, I...

    Minelab Repair Service is the Best

    Last fall I was having trouble with my E-Trac when the temperature dropped below 40 degrees. It would make a noise like a flute, like you would move your fingers from one flute hole to another and hold the tone. I sent the detector to Chicago just before Christmas and got a call from the...

    E-Trac Question, Noise

    My E-Trac is making a strange noise. It seems to be OK for the first few minuets, but then starts to make a continuous tone, like a flute, and changes pitch. If I turn it off and back on, it is OK for a few minuets again. It doesn't make any difference what I am doing with the coil and I can...

    Is there a shielded coil for Minelab??

    On several occasions I have gotten into a yard where there was power lines that made unbearable noise on the E-Trac. I remember that there used to be a coil for the Whites, I think, that had a shield over the coil so that you could detect under power lines. Is this available or can you fashion...

    R.R.Key

    Finally able to get out and do some detecting after the Monsoons. Got 2 Rosies and a Merc yesterday. My friend got permission to a 1940"s house where were found two wheats. Looking across the street, we see the house that Columbus built when here was here, empty and derelict. The lady said...

    New Years Eve Hunt

    I saw my neighbor, across the street, Wednesday at the Recreation Center and he ask if I was going to come back and detect his back yard. I was there many years ago and pulled silver as the family before him had 6 boys with the house being built in 1950. I stopped over today to give it a last...

    Drapped Bust 5C in junk bucket

    Long cold 4 day weekend in Cleveland. May get out a little this afternoon as the sun is warming things up to around 43F. Cleaning out the buckets of junk and odds and ends the past 3 days. This morning I came across a bent up disc that had white corrosion on it. I thought it would be an...

    Non-Silver so far this year

    I have been busy for several days going through my buckets of junk and non-silver. I tumbled everything in the tumbler to get the dirt off. Wish they would look a little better than they do. I can't believe that I dug so many new pennies as I try not to. I did my last clean up around...

    5 Silver and 4 Wheats with picture

    I got out to a closed Catholic Church and School where I have been hitting all summer. The Silver was coming in like Wheats, 12-45, but every now and then would hit 46, and sounded just a little better than copper. Oh the quarter, I was really surprised that it wasn't a Wheat. I hope someday...

    24 Silver between 2 hunters

    I did a lot of research this summer on the schools and churches being closed around Cleveland. I went this one this summer when it was hot and dry and pulled six silver while my friend got one. Went back today with a newer detectorists and got 24 between the two of us. I got the bottom 13 with...
