New Minelab to replace the SE??

[Steve(MS)]

then there will be a whole lot of VLF's up for sale, a devise like that would be a ring hunters dream come true, including me. I don't care if it eats batteries and hipmount them or can't tell bottle caps from coins, hope they go ahead and release it!

a new metal detector using ground penetrating radar. I posted it late at night, I was tired. The next day the post was all gone, the whole thing. I thought I was going crazy. I was sure I had posted it. Now I know why.............your post answers a few questions.

You guys!!!! next time you scratch your head with your coil turn the power to the coil down. I think we are getting some fried brains out there.

Actual release date will be 4/1/2007.

Then it's one of two things....EITHER a Minelab GP series has swept them or bedrock is only 8" down.....

 

[tomtowns]

[tomtowns]

It all depends on whether he's eating BUGS or BOOGERS

Alerted this forum about it 5 years ago on the old server which used to carry the archives.

Must of got lost in the transfer.

There is the "old" version

[attachment 37933 47.jpg]

and the newer version
[attachment 37934 gpr2.jpg]

that maybe sort of looks a bit like a REALLY BIG Explorer.... and maybe with a back back......NOT.

The concept and idea has been around for a while and if you want there is more info at this link.

No big deal, unless you are willing to pay the money. BIG BUCKS NEEDED HERE.and if you can actually obtain the tehnology that just MIGHT be able to be minaturized ONE DAY in the future.

I find coins almost every outing in that range (beaches, parks, old schools, doesn't matter). I, too, found it hard to believe before buying an Explorer (I was using a Garret 2500), but I am now a convert. Granted, when the signals get down to 11"-12" or further (yes, I have found a couple of coins around the 13"-14" range) they are kinda weak, but repeatable. The pinpoint tone is just a slight buzz at that point, but once you know what to listen for, it's a beautiful thing. Deeper = Older. WooHoo!
ACE, hopefully you can find one that suits your needs and tastes. As for the rest of us, we'll happily keep digging deep stuff with our Explorers.
Cheers from Australia,

I have bad hearing then i guess . I guess i am not getting past 8 inches because i have bad hearing. I think it is possible with excellent hearing and excellent head phones to get the 12 inch deep coins. I am not saying it is totally impossible just hard digging all those super weak signals that are usually it seems either small items of trash close to the surface or 9 -12 inch deep coins. I hate digging 12 inch deep holes so i guess i am lazy. A lot of the 12 inch deep holes i have dug have turned up big iron or drink cans!. 8 inches is my cut off point.

JOHN (TX) hit the nail on the proverbial head!!!! ... i dont care how deep it goes....i am not paying 1200.00 for any MD unless it makes the coins jump out of the ground and they are gold ONLY.
