    vacant lot hunt

    Got permission to do a vacant lot that nobody seems to know much about it's history. Had 2 hunts so far totaling about 5-6hrs and haven't found much as far as older coins (I'm a coinshooter) but still learning the Et. Yesterday I found 30 clad plus this campaign pin and today I found 39 clad...

    Thankyou Tesoro

    For standing by your machines and warranty....!!!!! After 22yrs I finally sent in my GSII for a tuneup as every now and then it would go bazzerk, I'd shut it off, turn it back on and resume hunting with no problems? Sent it in for the heck of it just in case(?). They rebuilt the coil and...

    1 below zero......

    Getting cold here so my season is over and I pulled the batts from the E. I was wondering if by pulling the batt if I will loose my saved modes and programs after any amount of time without a battery in the machine...???? Thanks!

    eeked out a Rosie.......

    Managed a 30 min. hunt while I was in town today and eeked out this Rosie and only 1 other coin. Cold here with no snow and frost is already down about 2.5 inches already. Good thing I had my mini-sampson to dig the frozen ground...days are definately numbered around here. The Rosie was my 3rd...

    Tried TTF for my first time.....

    I've been learning my E for approx. 45hrs. now with the bulk of that time in the "ol trashy hunted out ballpark"....and oh is it trashy!!!!! Tried TTF with some disc by opening up the lower half of Bills' park setting. I hunted over areas I've hunted many times with both my Tesoro and also the...

    No wonder I've been frustrated

    Been hunting in places with no coins.....lmao! Took a trip out of town to the local Fairgrounds for 3.5hrs. today and had a great time instead of trying to make coins out of all the chirps and faint noises I've been hearing since I got the E. It helps to have something to dig in the first...

    Depth question.....??????

    New to the E and have about 23hrs. on the machine now and starting to get more comfortable with the machine. Probably dug around 100 coins now. I just put on a 6" EQ2 coil and like it because of the size, weight, slides acrossed the grass nice, gets into tight spots, etc. I've had it on now for...

    1st silver with the E......

    got about 12hrs in with the E now. Nothing special but managed my first silver down at the Ole Trashy Ballpark where I've done some practicing lately. More a case of "Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in awhile" but it's my first with the E...... Oh yeah..... Also recieved my Lesche...

    uploaded Bills' Park Pattern

    Thanks Bill.... I'm new to the E and after today only have about 6 frustrating hrs on it. Your program really helped me today from digging junk. I heard the machine nulling out quite a bit but it kept me from digging crap. I did waste some time while digging to China on some empty holes that I...

    First time out with the E......

    Only got an hr in but managed 7 clad coins at the trash ballpark. Got 1 quarter, 2 dimes, 2 coopers, 2 zinckers. One of the dimes was @ 7"+ with a nice clear signal so I was impressed with that. Not sure what my settings are because I can't seem to figure out how you save a setting once in the...

    Nervous E-trac Newbie........

    Have an E-Trac showing up next Tues. and after browsing the E-Trac forums for the past few days reading all I can, I have to admit I'm a little intimidated..... About myself: I'm 59 and live in western Montana. Been MDing for 22yrs now with a 22yr old Tesoro Golden Sabre II and have dug many...

    Threshold question(s)

    Just got a Tejon so threshold and ground balancing are new to me. GB seems easy enough and I thought threshold was also easy enough but this quote from another thread raised some questions for me...???? Would someone explain to me what exactly "threshold" is and what does it actually do? The...

    Tejons' first coins...(maiden voyage)

    Took the Tejon out for a road test at the schoolyard to get a feel for what it's trying to tell me. Then I figured I'd go down to the old ballpark to really dig some trash and play with the machine some more to learn. Nothing special coin wise...this was a learning trip, nothing more. I did...

    found a smooth crumb today......

    Went back to the schoolhouse/womens' club place today and sniffed around some and found this smooth 1917 Merc. As mentioned before, I've had several folks tell me it's already been hunted and so far I know at least 3 different people have hunted the place. Anyways...found a crumb they missed...

    the last silver disk

    finished up that place today and landed 1 last '46 rosie to close it out. Only coin I dug after 2 hrs of hunting today. Took 4 trips there and approx. 10hrs hunting and only got 17 coins total but 6 were silvers. Great place to hunt and I had a blast. Also got permission to return so I thought...

    4 more silver orbs today!!!!!

    These came from that '20's house I've been working, same place I got the georgie yesterday. It sure is nice to hunt an older home that has some virgin dirt left for a change. Most the older homes I score have foundation work, fill, dirt hauled off, and at least 5-10 different spots were every...

    silver #30

    FINALLY got #30 silver since I re-kindled the MDing the same day I joined the Forum about 4 months ago(?). As I mentioned it's been pouring rain here for 2 weeks now and I've maybe managed about 8 hrs hunting in almost 2 weeks. This georgie came from a new place I scored (1920's) and I've got...
