    Equinox 600 and 800 on sale everywhere!

    Sold my last year with 2 coils and got enough for a new CTX3030. Kind of figured the prices would drop with the XP2 out and manticore coming. Didn't know about the 700/900. Going to stick with the XP2. I personally don't see anything in the published specs on the 800 or Manticore to dump the...

    Equinox 900

    Like any new release we will have to wait until the first adopters get the 700, 900 and Manticore in the field and give an honest review.

    XP Deus 2 Depth Concern

    I thinking in the field you have silver coins which we know are typically deeper than clad. But they have been the ground longer and have had plenty of time for a nice ion halo effect to develop which makes them look bigger to the detector. And as a caution, when you dig and disturb the soil...

    Why so many people dumping the Deus 2

    I found it pretty easy to learn coming from CTX3030.

    New XP Deus II user here with the 9" coil with MI-6 and WSA II XL headphones

    Have owned the CTX3030 and Nox 800 so should not have too much trouble learning xp2. CTX was a fine machine, but simply got tired of having to use a swing harness. Looking forward to learning the XP2 and hope the wireless MI-6 and WSA II XL headphones are all that I expect them to be.

    looking for rings in the find gold program

    I find that kids are truly more interested in my metal detecting that adults. Most adults will either ignore me or ask me if I found any gold. Kinds on the other hand will ask intelligent questions.

    with regrets, I sold my CTX3030 after 11 months.

    Best detector I have ever owned. But I could not get over the weight and necessity using a swing harness. It got to a point where detecting was not fun any more using a swing harness. I will be buying the XP Deus II, with the RC, 9" coil and WSA II XL headphones. Heard a lot of good things about...

    Some Etrac Questions

    I had that problem on my new CTX starting out. But now, I think the coil metal memory has decided that it is longer now and that is no problem. After 10 months, I can grab the connector with my fingers. Just in case I carry in my back pack a small metal forceps that can reach up and grip the...

    Where are all the CTX users?

    I was one of the first to get the Nox 800. I don't use it at all, sold it after 3 years and bought a detector better suited for me, my CTX3030.

    Where are all the CTX users?

    I have had mine for 10 months now after using Nox 800 for three years. Love this detector. Really not hard to learn. High trash and ferrous coin pay close attention to what the manual has to say about these modes. Very helpful when trying to get stable TID's.

    Where are all the CTX users?

    that should be easy for you. I came from 3 years using an 800. The learning curve was made much easier with the help of forum member with tons of experience with the CTX. For me this is the perfect machine.

    Where are all the CTX users?

    That is basically what I have come to learn and am starting to do that. My CW sites are different from my park sites where I hunt coins. It is pretty easy to switch modes and find out if that coin sounds better in HT or FC and learn from that info.

    Where are all the CTX users?

    Andy Sabisch book on the ctx is good. After awhile you will be designing your own discrim patterns. But the really important part of the CTX is its very good ability to accurately ID coins. Coins and aluminum trash are far apart on the CO line. Target trace is good seeing and IDing multiple...

    seeking Civil War relic hunting sites in Atlanta

    anyone not hunting Atlanta now, or did hunt in the past that is willing to share with my come Civil War relic hunting site in north Metro Atlanta? In spite of extensive research, hard to find good CW relic sites any more. please respond with private message.

    target trace question

    Ironman I think I get your audio shape. With me, in pinpoint sizing a coin sized object give of a shorter tone, and a larger object is more drawn out. and I can tell from an elongated item like a none-ferrous say 10" copper pipe. Do you use pinpoint sizing or just regular pinpointing for your...

    target trace question

    First of all I am new to the CTX, have had it for 8 months. My understanding the target trace is a visual trace on the detect screen that traces in real time the FE-CO numbers and the colors indicate signal strength with dark red the highest and yellow lowest. Someone I think on this forum ask...

    Got Caught Ogling

    I often wondered why some dedicated White's detector users still used older machines when they could have an Equinox, XP or Simplex+. Now after using a CTX3030 for 8 months I get it.

    Manticore 50% increase in power.

    IDX knows what he is talking about. I messed about way too much on advanced settings on the 800 and probably screwed up 1/2 or more of my hunts. It ain't hard to accidently detune an 800 so a Bounty Hunter Jr can out hunt it.
