    OK,what has been your favorite,pet, detector

    Maybe you dont have it anymore,as me;or maybe you do. It may not be the best (as we know ,one machine can excel at certain type of hunting type than an another machine) but one that always has a good feeling,memories for you. Mine was the XL Pro. That machine in a trashy environment was slow...

    Classic 3

    Ran across a Classic 3 at a sale. Gave 150 bucks for it. Looks like its hardly been used. The owner passed away several years back and his wife said he didnt use it much. I dont really need it but knew some of you guys really loved these machines. I didnt know its worth but thought for sure...

    Relic hunting,hunters

    can be different types/places. Exactly what are you seeking? Anything/everything?? Well, I for one seek everything but usually looking for conductive metals,more so than iron. As I think back, I hardly ever,probably never (it would have been accidental) seek iron artifacts. But, at times...

    small coil

    I have been enjoying my ETrac it seems more and more. It has its place (s) and heavy iron littered sites (for me anyway) isnt one of them. I have a 8 inch Sunray but I classify that as a midsize coil. I just cant make my mind up between two of the excelerator coils,4.5x7 or 6" eq2. Just...

    13" Ultimate coil, are any of you

    still using this coil? Ive had pretty good luck with the Pro;but, you know how it is, always wondering if the grass is greener on the other side,lol. If you have/do, would you mind giving me your take on it, is it worth the purchase. Im wanting another coil. I only have the Pro and 8 inch...

    Up Averaging

    Didnt know really where to post this, thought maybe technology forum, so if Ive posted in wrong forum,I am sorry. I know,believe if trash is over a target, then, I believe a machine will never see it. But when trash is beside target or off to the side,maybe touching, a detector will up average...

    Patterns and settings

    There is a sticky and Bill S pattern. But I would like to see what some of you guys are using as patterns and your settings, while hunting parks and schools and what are your main goals/targets. Are you after old coins (thats me) and not clad, and maybe jewelry if it gets in the way. I usually...

    jewelry hunting

    Do any of you seriously (your main target,coins second) hunt for jewelry with the ETrac? I know, I know its reputation for higher conductors. I mainly use my ETrac in old parks,old schools and old houses in town, looking for coins and whatever else I stumble on. Oh, this is for dry land/...

    2nd outing with F75se

    Finally got time to make a three hour hunt yesterday at an old spot that has a modern house on top of an antebellum era house. Really beautiful place with lots of huge old trees. A 1905 or 08 Indian was best find, but in terrible shape. Found lots of bottle caps, aluminum pieces, pull tabs...
