    Sand Shark rods locked

    Picked up a barely used Sand Shark recently and in trying to do a complete breakdown and clean I cannot seem to separate the lower rods from each other. Even though its only a year old I'm guessing sand has worked it's way into the pole lock. I've tried spraying WD40 and soapy water into the...

    EMF trouble

    Does anybody know if there's a way to combat electrical interference. It seems that a specific section on the beach I hunt is plagued by EMF's. I think it's created by some large hotels right on the beach. I have to significantly drop the sensitivity to try and deal with it. This issue is...

    Trashy beach help

    Need some advice from Etrac users out there. I'm primarily hunting a very trashy beach on a regular basis and I'm using the Andy Sabisch gold program to pick out good targets. The beach contains a lot of foil. I notice this falls into the same Fe/Co range as some jewelery. Does anybody know...

    New to Etrac

    Picked up an ETrac last week and could use some advise. Obviously, it's much more complicated than the Quattro and Safari both of which I've used. I took it to the beach today and set the sensitivity in auto (just so I can get a feel for it). I also used the beach mode and was surprised how...

    Coils for Big Bud 1

    Does anybody know if the Big Bud 1 will be compatible with the more recent coils being made today? I just picked up one as a backup machine to mess around with and I would like to know if I can swap the coils out. Thanks.

    New CZ70 User and needing help

    Ok, I've been TH for just about 30 years now using every make and model there is. I just picked up a CZ70 from another forum and everything seems to be working fine with one exception. I took the machine out for the first time this morning and tried to use the "pushbutton" GB method. When I...

    Rechargeable batteries

    Just picked up a CZ70 and was wondering if I can use 9v rechargeable batteries in it and if so would I just use 200mAh Nimh type? Thanks.

    Fixing headphones

    Picked up an older Whites PI Pulse recently and one of the earphone cups has a pretty bad tear in it and a small section of the vinyl is missing exposing the foam. Quick fix was to put some electrical tape over it. Whites has quoted me $150+ just to replace the headphones. Just wondering if...

    GTI 2000 and interference

    Took the GTI to the beach to run it through its paces. I hunted primarily in coins and jeweley mode since the area is filled with bottlecaps and foil among other things. Seems to be very good in the dry sand. Noticed that pennies come in at a lower tone than dimes and quarters. One issue I...

    GTI 2500 question

    Received my GTI a couple of days ago and I've been pouring over the manual. I have a question; is it possible to work in a say a jewelry mode and still employ the salt elimination function? I'm thinking no based upon what i've read.

    g2 at the beach

    Firstly, I want to thank Steve who has been imparting some of his G2 knowledge with me as a new user. If any of you have been using in the wet/dry sand, I would appreciate and tips/advice. I took my first swing (no pun intended) at it yesterday and I just didn't quite feel comfortable. The...

    New G2 owner

    New G2 arrived today (thanks Bart) and just wondered if anybody had any useful tips they can share? I will pretty much be using this on the beach in the dry/wet sand.

    GT and the DEPTHMASTER

    Has anybody tried to use a Depthmaster on their Sovereign GT? I purchased one because I have minor hearing loss and thought it would be a benefit. Tried to use it this morning and absolutely nothing. When I go to plug my Gray Ghost headphones into it, I do hear some static but nothing else...

    Big Bud Pro coils

    Can anybody tell me if Teknetics still makes coils that can be used on Bid Bud Pro?

    Minelab Audio Booster

    Anybody have any experience using the audio/signal booster device on the Sov GT? I remember using one in the 80's on my Garrett Groundhog and they seemed to be a lot cheaper than the ones being offered today on Ebay. Does it really offer an advantage over having the headphone volume turned way...

    New Infinium owner needs advice

    I've been TH for 25+ years with VLF and PI's and this week I picked up an Infinium. Took it out for the first time this morning to the beach and it's quite different from other PI's i've used. Here are some comments and questions I have. After initial GB, with discrimination at zero I began...

    CScope CS7

    Looking to maybe pick a C7S up used. Being from the UK I'm familiar with Cscope, but just wondered if anybody has any feedback on this machine. From my understanding it's an Eric Foster design.

    BHID Supertune

    I think I saw the supertune set up a while back but can't find it. Can somebody out there post it again? Thanks for your help.

    CZ21 feedback

    I purchased a CZ21 a few years ago when they first came out. I think I must have bought a lemmon, because no matter what I did I couldn't get it to GB on the beach. I have been TH for 30 years and this was the first time I couldn't get a machine to function correctly. Anyway, instead of...

    Tesoro 10" eliptical coil

    Anyone currently using or have experience with the 10" eliptical coil on the Sand Shark? I have read that it is pretty sensitive to smaller objects. Currently searching the beach with an 8" coil and would like to get more covearge.
