A FEW HOURS AFTER WORK

[Cupajo]

Hi Gang,

Yesterday and again today I spent a few hours after work following my stock double D coil around the dry and wet sand on the local beach. I'm amazed at the number of hair-pins that are lost in the sand. I'm also amazed at the sensitivity of this machine and this coil!!!

I found a tiny bit of lead so small I could have never found it without my Vibraprobe. In fact most of my finds were tiny bits of this and that. I was digging them all. Today I spent more time exploring the discrimination function and how accurate it is. I didn't have a lot of time on the beach but I found enough bottle caps etc. to begin to weed them out with the discrimination knob.

No gold came to light, but I have hope that with more time and a little more understanding I can change that. I had very few false signals and have come to ignore them and consider them part of my dialog with the machine.

I need to build a better dry sand scoop because my water scoop is too heavy for dry land and the last dry sand scoop I built collapsed under the work load I gave it.

Yesterday I made three adolescent girls very happy by finding two small toe rings they had lost. Now they and I have stories to share!!!

Hi Cupajo, The LS sure does find the hair pins alright. I hope the guy that invented them become a detector operator later on, that'll teach him! HH regards Nugget.

Cupajo, It's always good to read your posts!!!

The Infinium also amazes me with the small things it can find. It's also good that you were able help in locating those small toe rings too!!!!
