    The quest for elusive silver

    So, I have some hard hunted but very old parks I'm learning the E-Trac on. These spots have been pounded since metal detectors were first sold, literally. But they date back to the mid 1800's so you always hold out hope right? With my Garret my best find in one spot was a nice 1905 IH. This...

    A different kind of find

    So I guess this would fall in the relics category. Got this from a home site that was torn down in the late 40's and turned into a park. It's a piece of newspaper linotype. I remember taking a field trip as a kid to a newspaper that was published using this process. Brings back a few memories...

    My ultimate detecting accessory

    A wife who likes to dig holes and run the Pro Pointer. http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h119/elcruisr/finds/th_IMG_20111124_091351-1.jpg After 30 years I'm mighty thankful I still have her!

    First run

    So I took the Etrac out to a modernish park that I have hunted before. Moderate trash and number of targets. One thing I forgot was my Chinese phrase book! Geez this thing goes deep on incredibly small targets. So we found clad, copper and zinc pennies, usual park stuff around here. I did find...

    One for you old Boy Scouts

    Found this near the play area of an old park with the AT-Pro. https://picasaweb.google.com/114844622601651762481/20111118?authkey=Gv1sRgCN_V98iWkuni7gE

    E-Trac question

    Do any of you put screen protector film on the control face? I was wondering if it might just be worth covering buttons and all.

    What have I done!!!

    Well, I've gone and done it, bought myself an E-Trac! While I'm happy with my other detector, an AT-Pro, I wanted another tool in my toolbox. Most sites around me have been hunted pretty hard and I wanted something to go deeper for old silver. So my first question is this. Besides the manual...

    First run on the beach

    No earth shattering finds and I was a bit limited by torn ligaments in my ankle but I just wanted to say the ol' AT-Pro did really well from the dune line to wading. Got a few coins, sinkers and a perfume bottle with shells growing on it. But thanks to the help of another forum member with more...

    Got my oldest coin yet today

    Wish I could post a picture but the wife's out of town with the camera. That's my excuse and I'm stickin' to it! Anyway me, the AT-Pro and the new 5x8 tried out a new park today. Got a large men's sterling ring in the parking lot. Almost sounded like a ring type pull tab with a double tap and...

    Got my oldest coin today!

    Have the new 5 x 8 DD coil on my AT-Pro and took it hunting this weekend. 5 quarters, 7 dimes, 3 nickels, 57 pennies but one of those pennies was a 1905 Indian Head! Found it in the sandy soil of a park. Also hit a large sterling men's ring with a black onyx setting. Also found a Hot Wheels Sho...

    First impression of 5 x 8 DD on the AT-Pro

    Just tried the 5x8 DD coil on the AT-Pro today and took it to a spot I know that is a parking lot at a bar. Bottle cap, pull tab and can slaw hell. That little coil can sift through trash like a dream! Go slow and hunt carefully and it pulled the clad and copper out of the soup that made me give...

    5 x 8 DD for my AT-Pro tomorrow!

    Oh, yeah! They are in stock and one is reserved for the old sailor. Will try it out this weekend.

    Anyone using bedliner on their coil?

    Was wondering if it's that big an improvement over coil covers.

    Wanted to say thanks

    To this forum and the mod's. Unlike some other forums on the 'net owning an AT-Pro does not set you up for scorn and ridicule, quite the opposite. We know we have good machines and at least we can enjoy talking about them here. Thank you all! :yo:
