I'm at 30 hours on my new Etrac, my results...

[Hopskippy]

I've got 30 hours on my Etrac at this point. I've grid this park twice, First in multi tone using the Bill_S park pattern. (Thank you Bill_S for everything!)
I grid it again using TTF and an open screen.
I have the ultimate coil on order, so I plan to grid it off again.

I apologize for the unclear video. After uploading and editing this video, I noticed there was a smudge on the lens of my camera. I would have re-done it, but it took 4 hours to get it done. I will not let that happen again!

Thanks moonshine! I'm thinking there must be more deep coins there. I got a seated and I know of one other seated found there. I don't have very many locations to hunt, so I will be hunting it again. GL & HH

Wow, great finds! Had this park been hunted heavily prior to you finding all this silver?

Thanks! Yes, its been hunted for 35 years, with the older machines. I'm pretty sure I'm the first Etrac user. I don't think theres another Etrac in town? I only know of one ATpro and one T2. I've hunted at it with a Fisher F4 and a Whites XLT. Which neither goes as deep. Plus I also had never grid searched it and covered ALL of it. I'm doubting anyone else had either. I'm sure there is more there too. The park is pretty old, pre 1900, and it was the only one in town until about 15 years ago. I'll probably grid it again with both the Ultimate and the 5.5" Excelerator. I don't have many other locations close. Its pretty trashy and I'm sure I missed some goodies in the real trashy areas.

From a pounded park, and all those great finds, i'd also say that park has not seen an eTRAC.

That is a park you can go back to time and time again with different coils, strategies or settings and still find keepers.
Think you're on the right track with the Ultimate.

Every once in a while those so called pounded parks surprise.

I enjoyed watching your 30 hour totals video. Congratulations on the finds. If I ever get down to SE Mo, I'll be sure to email you so I don't go to that park, I don't think there will be anything left! Take care and keep hunting!
