    8" EXcelerator Concentric...anyone used one on the Etrac?

    I'm looking for input if anyone has used one of these coils on the etrac, what they thought of it? I've got a Sun Ray 6" DD coil, and the 12" Sun Ray Stealth, I'm thinking I want a 8" coil for just general hunting spots, not to trashy, and not real large areas. Thanks if anyone has anything to...

    Got a piece of silver

    We had great weather here over the weekend, it was a bit windy but the temperature was in the 70's. I hunted the local pounded fair grounds Saturday and Sunday for a total of about 8 hours using Andy's program, and the 6 inche EQ2 coil. I just love this coil, great seperation and depth, can't...

    A couple of nice days to detect

    Friday and Saturday here were really nice days, in the upper 60's, unreal for January! Friday after work I grabbed the etrac and headed down to the local fairgrounds just to swing the detector for an hour, not expecting much out of it, but just to get out. I had some good luck, finding a well...

    Been a good long while since I posted

    I got out for a couple of hours on Sat. & Sun. morning, man was it hot even early in the morning. Saturday I'd had my battery charging all nite for the hunt but when I put it in the detector it only showed 3/4's of a charge, and only lasted for a couple of hours. So when I got home I put it...

    Got out for a couple of hours after work this evening and hunted down at the local park/fairgrounds. I found 3 wheaties, 29d, 41, and a 59d and some clad. I was head for the car swinging along where the rail for the horse track used to be, and go a choppy 12/45 single that sounded from all...

    More silver from the park

    Went down to the local park last evening to have another shot at the silver in the trashiest part of the park running auto -3. All I gotta say is it works! The 1920 merc was around 6" deep and the 43 merc was around 5". I've been over this area with every detector I've ever owned, and with...

    A few finds from the empty lot here in town

    Here's a few finds that I made on the empty lot I've been hunting here in town. The house was burnt down probably 25 years ago, so the whole lot is covered with nails and the usual junk that goes along with any old location. I'd hunted this with a fisher, with a big coil, I'm going back over...

    Big isn't always better

    Got out for 3 hours this afternoon to a couple of empty lots here in town that I had hit some years back with a Fisher CZ7a. I was really surpised at what I had missed, I only got hunted between the sidewalk and the curb. In the CZ7a's defense, I'm pretty sure I was using the 10 1/2" spider...

    Finally something worth posting!

    I got out yesterday afternoon for a couple of hours at a empty lot that the local school owns. There used to be a house on it, but it was burnt down about 20 years ago. I've been hunting this with the six inch coil for about a month on weekends, found lots of clad, a 54 wheatie, and a 1887...

    fairgrounds finds from last weekend

    I got out for a while last weekend at the local fairgrounds. I'm still using the 6" EQ2 coil, I'm really liking it in the trashy spots. The rosie in the pic is a 1964, just barely in the silver range, last year they made them. The silver nickle is a 1943 war nickle...it came in at FE13 CO34...

    A couple of silver yesterday

    It's been a while since I posted, seems like it was a long cold winter. I've been detecting the last couple of weeks down at the local fairgrounds/park for a hour or so most evenings. I'm using the excelerator 6" DD coil. I'm going to cover the whole area with it, almost 20 acres of ground...

    Afternoon hunt 10-25-09

    Got out of 3 hours this afternoon before the rain chased me back in. Went to a small town close by, to the baseball field. Hunted there for an hour, only found 1 clad dime & 1 clad penny, so I moved to the town park. I'd hunted it several years back with a silent search detector, had no idea...

    Todays Hunt

    Got out to an old farm house this afternoon for a 3 hour hunt. Hunted on the south part of the yard, there was a lot of square nails around in the yard, I dug a couple of them that gave a crappy signal, but I wanted to see what they were. The toy disk in the picture was bent in almost half...

    Nice hunt after work

    The temp this afternoon was in the upper 70's, I took the etrac to work with me, so after work headed to a peacan grove by the walnut river in Winfield KS, for a short hunt. There's a lot of camping during summer in the grove. Found a good pile of change, all clad, a key, and a nice silver...

    This Afternoons Hunt

    Went to a ballfield in a town close by, they haven't played any ball there for a number of years, and it's pretty much hunted out. I've been trying to get to 50 silver dimes for a while, had 48 of them in the middle of August, found one last week, so thought maybe I could hopefully find one at...

    Saturday's Hunt

    I got out to a house down the street that is going to be demolished, asked the owner if he cared if I detected it, he chuckled and said " go ahead, but I've already been over it with my detector". I knew I was in luck when I asked him what brand of detector he had and he replied he couldn't...

    Last Couple Of Hunts

    Hi all, I haven't posted in a while, first it was to dry, and then it rained or drizzled for a week and a half. Found the big lock in a park in Nebraska last week while up visiting my son and daughter-in-law. It was down almost a foot, and then had about 18" of rusty chain on it, like to never...
