    Volume setting and modulated audio on the 705

    First have to discuss the threshold setting. In the past I had been setting the threshold at 7 to get the faint hum in my headphones. It took a while (thick noggin) to realize that a setting closer to 0 should be better, right? DUH! So what was I doing wrong? As it turns out, I had the...

    3 days and no posts...

    I know I'm guilty but dang it, it's snowing again and I'm about to go stir crazy. Have 705 will travel, to a warmer climate that is. Tom

    Notka did you listen?

    Months ago the topic of coils for the Impact was brought up and several of us indicated a desire for concentric coils. Will the Impact platform support them? Are they still a possibility? Tom

    Fresh water wading

    Back when I had the X-70 I used to shallow wade with the 9" MF concentric and found it to be deep in the inland lakes here. Made some nice gold recoveries too! I'm not fond of the pod on a stick waterproof detectors due to the added water resistance. The slim factor of the 9" concentric was a...

    Don't know why I waited so long

    to take advantage of the great price, but have a F75 85th Anniversary on the way! :smile: Want to say Hi to Tinfoil and other regulars. Been a while since I have used a Fisher. Tom

    Hey Digger Its been a (long) while but I'm back

    I recently traded in one of the Turk machines on a shiny new 705 and I'm glad to be back in the X-Terra fold. Already scarfed up some wheat backs at a beat to death one room schoolhouse. Hopefully the old silver will start coming to light. Tom

    Hey White's

    G2 with Nel Snake coil

    Well the weather turned for the worse up here in No. Michigan so I haven't had a chance to get out yet with the 3.5 x 6.5" Snake coil. I did do an air test on it and it hits a Buffalo nickel at 9" with a repeatable smooth tone. Should be a good one for iron hunting! Tom

    Racer 2 with Mars Tiger coil

    I had a short window to take the Racer 2 out to the field today equipped with the Mars 10x13 Tiger coil. Initially I ran it out away from where the old homestead and dense iron is located hoping to pickup any stray coins that may be scattered in the field. After a couple of hours and no luck I...

    Omega 8500 scores 2 tokens from an old logging town.

    No silver or old coins today but I'm very happy with these 2 tokens from the towns boarding house. Found them a few feet apart in the woods behind the cellar holes. Not trashy back in the woods so I was tryiing out the Mars 10x13 Tiger coil. Seems to be a good coil for more open areas. Hit a...

    6" concentric coil

    Anyone here use the 6" concentric coil in iron? All I read about is the HF 5x10 in iron. I have always preferred concentrics for iron hunting and am considering getting another X-terra. Thanks

    Out to Lake Michigan today with the O85 for a beach hunt

    There is still a lot of ice piled up against the shore, should have taken a camera. Most of the beach has had the snow melted off and despite the near zero temps the last two nights todays sun melted any frost in the sand allowing easy digging. I was primarily interested in how the D2 would...

    Mars coils for Teknetics

    Just an FYI for you guys that are considering the Mars Tiger coil. They are not broad band coils that will also fit the Greek series detectors. Mars tunes their coils to work on the 19 Khz only. Greek series owners will need to specify the lower frequency coil. Now for the question of...

    Nothing spectacular in the way of finds today

    But the G2 managed a few pieces out of the machine gun iron where a House of Ill Repute stood in the late 1800's. I have been hunting this site off and on for a few years now pulling some pretty neat historical items out of it in the past. Finds included a small silver belt buckle, a toasted...

    Hit a "Foreclosure" yard tonight....

    Seeing way too many of those around these days but a sign of the times. Ok enuff on that subject on to the hunt. I had the Omega and G2 with me so first up was the G2.... which oddly enough did not like the neighborhood EMI at all..... a bit of a surprise. Anyway back to the car I went to...
