    X-terra coil / warranty

    Can anybody tell me if the coil mounting brackets are covered under the warrant? I used that coil three times with stock hardware and both of them broke. I contacted Minelab via their support form online but have not received any reply. Thanks, MD

    But I believe it's fairly recent -- I'm not sure if I should feel sorry for this guy, be angry at him, or just laugh....unreal....

    GT and Gray Ghost Headphones

    I added a GT to the family last week for the beach, and so far I've been having a blasty with it. The only phones I've used have been the Gray Ghost N.D.T. and was wondering if they are or are not recommended for use with the GT. I've noticed that at times, when I turn the volume down, the...

    Fisher Service Turn-Around Time?

    Anybody know what the turn-around time is these days for quick repairs? I was told by a rep it would be just a few days, so I sent it in and they've had it since 9/16. I've heard nothing from them, and my request for a status update has yet to be answered. HH, MD

    To all you Penny-Notchers

    Thanks, I just made a run over to coin-star and cashed in 1,946 of them. :-) There were also 95 dimes in there (oops, wrong bucket). HH, MaineDigger

    2 Hours out today with the ID Edge once the rain slowed down

    I probably could have just gone out there with only a sand scoop and done just fine.... Wet and windy but worth it for some "Silvah" and some other goodies!!! [attachment 27006 2006051410.jpg] [attachment 27007 2006051414.jpg] [attachment 27008 200605147.jpg] [attachment 27009 2006051419.jpg]

    ID Edge GB

    Hi, The only thing I don't like about the Edge so far is that I find myself doubting the GB method quite often. I've tried GB'ing it with sensitivity as low as 1 on a wet fresh water beach and stil get a "BEEP BEEP BEEP" until lift it up. Question: After balancing properly, does the ID Edge...

    Checking the tides - handy little program

    http://wcarchive.cdrom.com/pub/simtelnet/win95/science/wxtide45.zip I use TideTool on my Palm Pilot, but this one here sits in your taskbar. A nifty little tool for those that check the tides as often as I do. And if you stare at it long enough, it is actually a bit more exciting than watching...

    Golden Umax Redesign?

    Last year I bought a Golden Umax that is currently not working, and is probably beyond repair. However, I recently purchased another and the first thing I did was cracked her open to trace the PCB and noticed that when comparing it to my other (older) golden there are some changes. One obvious...

    Bandito II uMax coils

    I have a Bandido II uMax on the way and was wondering if the coils that I use on my6 Golden uMax are cross-compatible. I assume they are, but just wanted to make sure. Thanks! HH MaineDigger

    GB on a Golden, need the right potentiometer

    I had my golden in pieces last week -- now that I've re-soldered all the bad connections, it's working better than it ever has. Now I'm going to add the GB. Can somebody that has done this point me to a website where I can order a good multi-turn trim pot? Part number? Radio Shack doesn't seem...

    Old Heathkit Detector (Early 80's) / Radio Shack 2200

    I have an old Heathkit MD that my Dad built around '82 in Mint condition. Can anybody think of something I might be able to do with this thing? It's an interesting piece of equipment, nonetheless. I also dug my Radio Shack 2200 out of the closet which I used to use as a backup. Are there any...

    BeachHunter ID Question

    Does anybody know if the "DISC" switch on the BeachHunter ID has the same effect on the ground balance as using the "LOCK" feature on the MXT? I owned an MXT and currently use a BHID as my primary Beach machine -- just wondering if perhaps White's may have built in the same functionality in...
