    Newer F75 and EMI

    Any of you who know me know I love my Camo F75. I was on board as soon as it was announced and couldn't wait to get my dream relic hunter. I love the weight, balance, feel, and my results. I love the Camo being a limited thing and not seeing a bunch of them. However, I will admit that I have...

    G2 gets a Civil War store card token

    I was hunting a farm field where an old house was shown on an 1877 map. Had a hard time figuring out where things may have been back then. Finally decided that the house had been pushed down a hill and toward a wooded area. Got this Civil War store token at about five inches. I love the...

    Deus braves the mud and the iron and gets it done

    The mud was unbelievable in Indiana today. My feet grew from 10s to 20s as the boots got engulfed. Saw my hunting buddy narrowly miss a face plant when his boot stuck and he couldn't move. Went back to an old house site that I have hunted with a couple of other detectors. There is plenty of...

    Good Day with the Deus - Flying Eagle

    I got out today with three friends and had a great time. One of them found a sweet 1843 LC sitting right on top of the ground. Another friend got a 1853 LC. I recovered my second of all time 1857 Flying Eagle Cent. I also got a decent 1867 Indian. The buttons were a bit of a bonus though...

    Deus rocks in the iron - 18 degree day

    I was so excited to have my coil and headphones working together again I had to get out. It was a balmy 26 when I started out this afternoon. Temperatures fell to 18 before I quit at 5. I was hunting an old house site in a field. Had to chisel the ground and actually hauled home some mud to...

    Headphone trouble after washing coil

    Indiana fields are ugly and muddy right now. I hunted the other night and got my detector filthy. I rinsed the coil and stem off in the bathtub with a sprayer. I charged everything before going out last night. Everything fired up but the headphones didn't work. I tried shutting down and...

    Boy would I like to make this a good story - - -

    I got out today with my new large coil on the Deus. The first field was a total mud disaster that sent me sliding back to my car. I finally found a field that I could stand up in and try the new coil. Signals are much stronger with the big coil. I dug an Indian at about 6 or 7 inches in the...

    Pat on the back - - -

    I truly want to thank everyone who jumped into the "pitch mode" discussion on the forum. I have been reading this forum for months and this is one of the best and most helpful things I have seen. I have held on to my Deus stubbornly even though I haven't had a ton of success. I could tell it...

    This thing looks huge - - -

    I got my new larger Deus coil programmed last night. I struggled with it a little bit. Seems I had written down the wrong serial number, so I entered it wrong. Luckily it is pretty simple to edit the number. Once I got the right number everything worked amazingly. I was amazed at how big...

    A little break through for me - - -

    I have been hunting with the Deus since last Fall. I could tell that it was deep and good at picking things up but having a hard time making a real break through. I think I got it today. I finally figured out the fainter sounds. I have been digging the screamers and getting a lot of junk...

    High tone, low VDI numbers

    I will be the first to admit that I need more time on the Deus. I took it out today to an old farm house site in a field. I got a ton of 90 going to 98s that I assumed were big iron. Some were raspy sounding and all that I dug were iron. The ones that puzzled me were the great sounding tones...

    Surprised by a "D" in Indiana

    Got out today with a friend hitting some old house sites. We were finding some interesting things but nothing super cool. At the last site, just before dark I got a weak signal with the F75. Read at about a 44 but with a decent tone. Dug an Eagle button. I was super pleased because I...

    How many of you have the larger coil?

    if you have the larger coil what are your impressions about it? I have heard about balance issues. I wondered if the bigger foot print was worth the big bucks? Please share your experiences. Thanks, Don

    Fast Program cranked up too much?

    I am new to the Deus and hunting in the provided programs. I don't have any trouble digging coins out in open areas but when I field hunt old house sites I get confused. Is it possible the fast program is too powerful when faced with all of the surface metal and debris of an old house site...

    F75 LTD, still gets the job done

    I have spent the summer learning two new machines. I felt like i had a good handle on the F75 so it has been sitting a lot. Sunday, while working with a new machine I lost a battery and had to go to my back up detector. The F75 fired up and felt like an old friend. We were hunting an old...

    New to the Deus but enjoying the trip

    I have only had the Deus since Thursday but jumped at the chance to take it out in a recently cut corn field. I really hadn't studied the menu too much but did manage to move from one program to the other. We were hunting an old house site. I was in the Fast program with no changes. I got a...

    I don't have much luck with nickels but gold is good

    Took the E trac into a neighborhood yard that I have hunted several times with some other detectors. I always did pretty well. Got a junk signal and as the swing continued it jumped into the nickel range. I was using the Minelab 8 and I immediately slowed it down and swung from different...

    You have to be kidding me - - - in Central Indiana?

    You guys have been putting up with my rookie Etrac questions and I appreciate it. I finally decided I knew what coins signals sounded like and I was going to dig them. If it was questionable or just weird, I let it go. I hit this last night at an old picnic grounds in Central Indiana. It...

    Rookie E trac user question

    Guys, I am a rookie on the E trac. I have been trying it for a month or so and struggling a little. When I hit a coin I hear the great E trac response and dig the coin. I have perfected the wiggle pin point. I have modified programs and installed other people's user modes. Last night I...

    Is Fisher That Good?

    I know I was a Fisher guy when the LTD came out. I hate to say but I think we at least had a few rumors or some prototype detectors floating around. I sure hope Fisher has something in the pipe but can't believe they could keep it this quiet. I am used to camera manufacturers and their...
